Answer 1

Add one more parameter to the constructor of RecyclerView inherited class and... Assign the value to arraylist class variable of class RecyclerView. Something like

....
....class MyRecyclerView extends RecyclerView....
{
List<xyz> arrayList;
....
public MyRecyclerView(...,ArrayList<xyz> arrayList)
{
this.arrayList=arrayList;
}

And use this.arrayList whereever you want to use.

Answer 2

Thanks a lot for your answer and i understand what does this code but i first i found this :

public class RecyclerView extends ViewGroup implements ScrollingView, NestedScrollingChild {
public RecyclerView(Context context) {
    this(context, null);
}

and i can't modify the code. Second my arraylist use a bdd (this second code is in my MainActivity)

public NotesBDD noteBDD = new NotesBDD(this);
ArrayList<Note> Notess = noteBDD.ConstruireNotes();
    for (Note n : Notess){
        Notes.add(n);
    }

It's possible to use non-static methods from an other class ?
