Remove all items from RecyclerView

Question

I am trying to remove all the elements from my RecyclerView in my onRestart method so the items don t get loaded twice    Override protected void onRestart         super onRestart            first clear the recycler view so items are not populated twice     for  int i   0  i  lt  recyclerAdapter getSize    i              recyclerAdapter delete i                 then reload the data     PostCall doPostCall   new PostCall       my AsyncTask         doPostCall execute        But for some reason the delete method I created in the adapter is not functioning properly   in RecyclerAdapter java    public void delete int position       myList remove position       notifyItemRemoved position      public int getSize        return myList size        I think every other item in my list gets deleted instead of the entire list   With a listview it was so easy and I simply called adapter clear     Can someone please help me fix up the code   I think I should be using notifyItemRangeRemoved           but I am not sure how  TIA

You have better clear the array-list that you used for recyleview adapter   arraylist clear

ListView uses clear     But  if you re just doing it for RecyclerView  First you have to clear your RecyclerView Adapter with notifyItemRangeRemoved 0 size   Then  only you recyclerView removeAllViewsInLayout

recyclerView removeAllViewsInLayout      The above line would help you remove all views from the layout   For you    Override protected void onRestart         super onRestart         recyclerView removeAllViewsInLayout      removes all the views        then reload the data     PostCall doPostCall   new PostCall      my AsyncTask         doPostCall execute

Another way to clear the recycleview items is to instanciate a new empty adapter   mRecyclerView setAdapter new MyAdapter this  new ArrayList lt MyDataSet gt         It s probably not the most optimized solution but it s working like a charm

Avoid deleting your items in a for loop and calling notifyDataSetChanged in every iteration  Instead just call the clear method in your list myList clear    and then notify your adapter  public void clearData         myList clear       clear list     mAdapter notifyDataSetChanged       let your adapter know about the changes and reload view
