Android AutoNotifyViewPager

This project is an upgraded version of ViewPager. AutoNotifies your adapter when data get's changed.

##Prerequisites

Why?

  • By default ViewPager's adapter should be notified using mAdapter.notifyDataSetChanged() if data get's changed after setting adapter to avoid IllegalStateException
  • It get's difficult to update your adapter when PagerAdapter is in other class, typically different *.java
  • Example :
    • In this app, ListView's adapter & ViewPager's adapter share's same content.
    • When scrolled down to bottom of the page in ListView, GetMoreData is triggered, fetched, parsed & updated to ListView's adapter.
    • Seems easy, but when the user clicks & navigates to ViewPager after triggered and before updated, you end up in IllegalStateException as the data got changed but not notified.
    • This can be avoided having complex eventListeners, instead simply use AutoNotifyViewPager

When?

  • Notifies your adapter when view get's changed

Not When!

  • adapter get's content.

Usage

Import any one *.jar into /libs

In layout.xml

<com.venomvendor.library.AutoNotifyViewPager 
 android:id="@+id/pager"
 android:layout_width="match_parent"
 android:layout_height="match_parent" />

Instead of ViewPager mPager use AutoNotifyViewPager mPager

AutoNotifyViewPager mPager = (AutoNotifyViewPager) findViewById(R.id.pager);
mPager.setAdapter(adapter);
