I want use 2-way dataBinding by LiveData. but change editText value not update textView that show user.name. what is wrong by my code? I use android studio 3.3 canary 3 and enable data binding v2 in gradle.properties by this code:
android.databinding.enableV2=true
model data class:
data class User(var name: String)
viewModel class:
class MainViewModel : ViewModel() {
val user = MutableLiveData<User>()
init {
user.value = User("ali")
}
}
mainActivity:
class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity() {
override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
val activityMainBinding: ActivityMainBinding = DataBindingUtil.setContentView(this, R.layout.activity_main)
val viewModel = ViewModelProviders.of(this).get(MainViewModel::class.java)
activityMainBinding.setLifecycleOwner(this)
activityMainBinding.viewModel = viewModel
}
}
<layout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

Update: I found solution at this link:
LiveData update on object field change
I set this change and it work:
class User : BaseObservable() {
@get:Bindable
var firstName: String? = null
set(name) {
field = firstName
notifyPropertyChanged(BR.firstName)
}
}
class MainViewModel : ViewModel() {
var user = CustomMutableLiveData<User>()
init {
user.value = User()
}
}
and add new
class CustomMutableLiveData<T : BaseObservable> : MutableLiveData<T>() {
internal var callback: Observable.OnPropertyChangedCallback = object : Observable.OnPropertyChangedCallback() {
override fun onPropertyChanged(sender: Observable, propertyId: Int) {
//Trigger LiveData observer on change of any property in object
value = value
}
}
override fun setValue(value: T?) {
super.setValue(value)
//listen to property changes
value!!.addOnPropertyChangedCallback(callback)
}
}
