Make work with Android View Binding simpler. The library:
- manages ViewBinding lifecycle and clears the reference to it to prevent memory leaks
- eliminates the need to keep nullable references to Views or ViewBindings
- creates ViewBinding lazily
The library comes in two variants: with and without reflection. The artifacts are respectively: vbpd
and vbpd-reflection
. Prefer to use the one without reflection for better performance
Each Gradle module in your project where you need to use ViewBinding must be properly configured. Refer to the official guide on how to do that
allprojects {
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}
}
dependencies {
// recommended
implementation("dev.androidbroadcast.vbpd:vbpd:2.0.0")
// additional factories that use reflection under hood
implementation("dev.androidbroadcast.vbpd:vbpd-reflection:2.0.0")
}
class ProfileFragment : Fragment(R.layout.profile) {
// RECOMMENDED
// no reflection API is used under the hood
private val profileBinding: ProfileBinding by viewBinding(ProfileBinding::bind)
}
