What is lifecycle for RecyclerView adapter?

Question

I\'m requesting images from presenter in adapter:

  @Override
  public void onBindViewHolder(SiteAdapter.ViewHolder holder, int position)
  {
    Site site =         


        

Answer 1

For others which have the same problem: viewDetachedFromWindow in the adapter is only called when the adapter is set to null in the onPause (Activity, Fragment) or onDetachFromWindow (Activity, Fragment)

recyclerview.setAdapter(null)

Then you get viewDetachedFromWindow(...) where you can release your internal states and subscriptions. I would setup your subscriptions in on bind, make sure before every bind call you relase old subscriptions as a view can be recycled.

Another possibility is to inflate a custom view instead of only a layout in your factory. Then you can make the cleanup in the custom view onDetachFromWindow(). You get the onDetachedFromWindow also without setting the adapter to null.
