"如何为 RecyclerView 适配器创建一个包装器，该包装器将接受任何实现 RecyclerView.Adapter 的适配器<RecyclerView.ViewHolder>"

Question

I know the title is a bit weird, sorry. This is a weird one that I'm not even sure I can explain it correctly, here is my attempt:

Basically I want to implement a wrapper for any adapters that extend RecyclerView.Adapter<RecyclerView.ViewHolder> , the wrapper eventually will be able to insert rows if needed and it will modify things like getItemCount() as necessary, but I'm nowhere near that part yet.

This is my class definition:

class MyRecyclerAdapterWrapper(activity: Activity,val originalAdapter: RecyclerView.Adapter<RecyclerView.ViewHolder>) : RecyclerView.Adapter<RecyclerView.ViewHolder>() {

I pass to it the original adapter which I want to wrap.

If I have the class definition like that, and then I try to create an instance of MyRecyclerAdapterWrapper like this:

val wrapper = MyRecyclerAdapterWrapper(activity, myOriginalAdapter)

Where myOriginalAdapter is an instance of:

class MyOriginalAdapter() : RecyclerView.Adapter<MyOriginalAdapter.MyViewHolder>() {

I then get an error saying that it is expecting RecyclerView.Adapter<RecyclerView.ViewHolder> but instead got MyOriginalAdapter .

So then I tried the out keyword on the class definition like this:

class MyRecyclerAdapterWrapper(activity: Activity,val originalAdapter: RecyclerView.Adapter<out RecyclerView.ViewHolder>) : RecyclerView.Adapter<RecyclerView.ViewHolder>() {

And that allows my constructor call MyRecyclerAdapterWrapper(activity, myOriginalAdapter) to stop complaining, however then my MyRecyclerAdapterWrapper class fails at implementing some of the RecyclerView.Adapter<RecyclerView.ViewHolder> overrides because originalAdapter expects Nothing instead of RecyclerView.ViewHolder .

For example inside MyRecyclerAdapterWrapper I have this piece of code:

override fun onBindViewHolder(holder: RecyclerView.ViewHolder, position: Int) {
        originalAdapter.onBindViewHolder(holder,position)
}

The error here is Type mismatch Required: Nothing Found: RecyclerView.ViewHolder .

So what is the correct way to handle this?

Edit: just wanted to be clear that other adapters will also use this wrapper, so the wrapper must be generic.

Answer 1

parameter require Nothing because you declared out for generic parameter

try to change RecyclerView.ViewHolder to MyOriginalAdapter.MyViewHolder

class MyRecyclerAdapterWrapper(activity: Activity,val originalAdapter: RecyclerView.Adapter<MyOriginalAdapter.MyViewHolder>) : RecyclerView.Adapter<MyOriginalAdapter.MyViewHolder>() {
    override fun onCreateViewHolder(parent: ViewGroup, viewType: Int): MyOriginalAdapter.MyViewHolder {
        TODO("Not yet implemented")
    }

    override fun onBindViewHolder(holder: MyOriginalAdapter.MyViewHolder, position: Int) {
        originalAdapter.onBindViewHolder(holder, position)
    }

    override fun getItemCount(): Int {
        TODO("Not yet implemented")
    }
}
