Equivalent of ListView.setEmptyView in RecyclerView

Question

In RecyclerView, I want to set an empty view to be shown when the adapter is empty. Is there an equivalent of ListView.setEmptyView()?

Answer 1

From my point of view the easiest way how to do an empty View is to create new empty RecyclerView with layout you want to inflate as a background. And this empty Adapter is set when you check your dataset size.
