Single selection in RecyclerView

Question

I know there are no default selection methods in recyclerview class, But I have tried in following way,

public void onBindViewHolder(ViewHolder holder, final         


        

Answer 1

This is how the Adapter class looks like :

public class MyRecyclerViewAdapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter{

Context context;
ArrayList routeDetailsFromFirestoreArrayList_;
public int  lastSelectedPosition=-1;


public MyRecyclerViewAdapter(Context context, ArrayList routeDetailsFromFirestoreArrayList)
{
    this.context = context;
    this.routeDetailsFromFirestoreArrayList_ = routeDetailsFromFirestoreArrayList;
}

@NonNull
@Override
public MyRecyclerViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(@NonNull ViewGroup viewGroup, int i)
{
    // LayoutInflater layoutInflater = LayoutInflater.from(mainActivity_.getBaseContext());
    LayoutInflater layoutInflater = LayoutInflater.from(viewGroup.getContext());
    View view = layoutInflater.inflate(R.layout.route_details, viewGroup, false);
    return new MyRecyclerViewHolder(view);
}

@Override
public void onBindViewHolder(@NonNull final MyRecyclerViewHolder myRecyclerViewHolder, final int i) {

    /* This is the part where the appropriate checking and unchecking of radio button happens appropriately */
    myRecyclerViewHolder.mRadioButton.setOnCheckedChangeListener(new CompoundButton.OnCheckedChangeListener() {
        @Override
        public void onCheckedChanged(CompoundButton compoundButton, boolean b) {
            if(b) {
                if (lastSelectedPosition != -1) {
     /* Getting the reference to the previously checked radio button and then unchecking it.lastSelectedPosition has the index of the previously selected radioButton */  
                    //RadioButton rb = (RadioButton) ((MainActivity) context).linearLayoutManager.getChildAt(lastSelectedPosition).findViewById(R.id.rbRadioButton);
                    RadioButton rb = (RadioButton) ((MainActivity) myRecyclerViewHolder.mRadioButton.getContext()).linearLayoutManager.getChildAt(lastSelectedPosition).findViewById(R.id.rbRadioButton);
                    rb.setChecked(false);
                }
                    lastSelectedPosition = i;
                    /* Checking the currently selected radio button */
                    myRecyclerViewHolder.mRadioButton.setChecked(true);
                }
        }
    });
}

@Override
public int getItemCount() {
    return routeDetailsFromFirestoreArrayList_.size();
}
} // End of Adapter Class

Inside MainActivity.java we call the ctor of Adapter class like this. The context passed is of MainActivity to the Adapter ctor :

myRecyclerViewAdapter = new MyRecyclerViewAdapter(MainActivity.this, routeDetailsList);
