How to create our own Listener interface in android?

Question

Could someone help me to create user defined listener interface with some code snippets?

Answer 1

In the year of 2018, there's no need for listeners interfaces. You've got Android LiveData to take care of passing the desired result back to the UI components.

If I'll take Rupesh's answer and adjust it to use LiveData, it will like so:

public class Event {

    public LiveData doEvent() {
         /*
          * code code code
          */

         // and in the end

         LiveData result = new MutableLiveData<>();
         result.setValue(eventResult);
         return result;
    }
}

and now in your driver class MyTestDriver:

public class MyTestDriver {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Event e = new Event();
        e.doEvent().observe(this, new  Observer() {
            @Override
            public void onChanged(final EventResult er) {
                // do your work.
            }
        });
    }
}
