RecyclerView onCreateViewHolder Return Type Incompatibility With Multiple Custom ViewHolders

Question

I\'m trying to use multiple ViewHolders in a RecyclerView in order to swap these views out at run time. I have created two classes which extend RecyclerView.ViewHolder:

Answer 1

The RecyclerView.Adapter is a parameterized class that takes in a single ViewHolder type. Your definition probably looks like:

public class RecyclerViewAdapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter

It should be:

public class RecyclerViewAdapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter

Don't forget to have the right definition for onBindViewHolder as well. You need to override getItemViewType as well.
