Recyclerview not call onCreateViewHolder

Question

My RecyclerView does not call onCreateViewHolder, onBindViewHolder even MenuViewHolder constructor, therefore nothing appears in RecyclerView. I put logs for debugging, and no log is shown. What might be the problem?

My adapter:

public class MenuAdapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter<MenuAdapter.MenuViewHolder> {
private LayoutInflater inflater;
List<Menu> data = Collections.emptyList();

public MenuAdapter(Context context, List<Menu> data) {
    Log.i("DEBUG", "Constructor");
    inflater = LayoutInflater.from(context);
    Log.i("DEBUG MENU - CONSTRUCTOR", inflater.toString());
    this.data = data;
    for(Menu menu: this.data){
        Log.i("DEBUG MENU - CONSTRUCTOR", menu.menu);
    }
}

@Override
public MenuViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(ViewGroup parent, int viewType) {
    View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.row_menu, parent, false);
    MenuViewHolder holder = new MenuViewHolder(view);
    return holder;
}

@Override
public void onBindViewHolder(MenuViewHolder holder, int position) {
    Log.i("DEBUG MENU", "onBindViewHolder");
    Menu current = data.get(position);
    holder.title.setText(current.menu);
}

@Override
public int getItemCount() {
    return 0;
}

class MenuViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder {
    TextView title;
    ImageView icon;

    public MenuViewHolder(View itemView) {
        super(itemView);
        title = (TextView) itemView.findViewById(R.id.menuText);
    }
}

My custom row XML:

<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="horizontal" android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">

<TextView
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:id="@+id/menuText"
    android:text="Dummy Text"
    android:layout_gravity="center_vertical"
    android:textColor="#222"/>

and my Fragment:

public NavigationFragment() {
    // Required empty public constructor
}

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    mUserLearnedDrawer = Boolean.valueOf(readFromPreferences(getActivity(), KEY_USER_LEARNED_DRAWER, "false"));
    if (savedInstanceState != null) {
        mFromSavedInstaceState = true;
    }
}

@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
                         Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    // Inflate the layout for this fragment

    View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_navigation, container, false);
    RecyclerView recyclerView = (RecyclerView) view.findViewById(R.id.drawer_list);
    MenuAdapter adapter = new MenuAdapter(getActivity(), getData());
    recyclerView.setLayoutManager(new LinearLayoutManager(getActivity()));
    recyclerView.setAdapter(adapter);
    return view;
}

Answer 1

I struggled with this issue for many hours. I was using a fragment. And the issue was not returning the view. Below is my code:

ProductGridBinding binding = DataBindingUtil.inflate( inflater, R.layout.product_grid, container, false);



    mLinearLayoutManager = new LinearLayoutManager(getActivity());
    mLinearLayoutManager.setOrientation(LinearLayoutManager.VERTICAL);

    binding.rvNumbers.setHasFixedSize(true);
    binding.rvNumbers.setLayoutManager(mLinearLayoutManager);
    binding.rvNumbers.setAdapter(adapter);


    View view = binding.getRoot();


    return view;

My mistake was inflating the wrong view in Fragment onCreateView.
