ViewBindingPropertyDelegate

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

IMPORTANT: Enable ViewBinding before using the library

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

Add the library to a project

allprojects {
  repositories {
    mavenCentral()
  }
}
dependencies {     // recommended     implementation("dev.androidbroadcast.vbpd:vbpd:2.0.4")          // additional factories that use reflection under hood     implementation("dev.androidbroadcast.vbpd:vbpd-reflection:2.0.4") }

Samples

import android.os.Bundle
import android.view.View
class ProfileFragment : Fragment(R.layout.profile) {    // RECOMMENDED    // no reflection API is used under the hood    private val profileBinding: ProfileBinding by viewBinding(ProfileBinding::bind)
override fun onViewCreated(view: View, savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {        super.onViewCreated(view, savedInstanceState)        with(profileBinding) {           firstName.text = person.name           lastName.text = person.surname           email.text = person.email        }    }
override fun onDestroyView() {       super.onDestroyView()       // profileBinding will be cleared after onDestroyView()    } }

Migration from 1.0

You can use 1.X and 2.X in the same project without replacing code

Replace packages com.github.kirich1409.viewbindingpropertydelegate -> dev.androidbroadcast.vbpd
Replace onViewDestroyed with moving code to proper lifecycle callback (Fragment.onViewDestroyed(), Activity.onDestroy(), etc.)
