【Android应用开发】RecycleView API 翻译 (文档翻译)

The RecyclerView is currently being dragged by outside input such as user touch input.

The RecyclerView is not currently scrolling.

The RecyclerView is currently animating to a final position while not under outside control.

Constant for use with setScrollingTouchSlop(int). Indicates that the RecyclerView should use the standard touch slop for smooth, continuous scrolling.

Constant for use with setScrollingTouchSlop(int). Indicates that the RecyclerView should use the standard touch slop for scrolling widgets that snap to a page or other coarse-grained barrier.

Adds any focusable views that are descendants of this view (possibly including this view if it is focusable itself) to views. This method adds all focusable views regardless if we are in touch mode or only views focusable in touch mode if we are in touch mode or only views that can take accessibility focus if accessibility is enabled depending on the focusable mode parameter.

Add an RecyclerView.ItemDecoration to this RecyclerView. Item decorations can affect both measurement and drawing of individual item views.

Item decorations are ordered. Decorations placed earlier in the list will be run/queried/drawn first for their effects on item views. Padding added to views will be nested; a padding added by an earlier decoration will mean further item decorations in the list will be asked to draw/pad within the previous decoration's given area.

Register a listener that will be notified whenever a child view is attached to or detached from RecyclerView.

This listener will be called when a LayoutManager or the RecyclerView decides that a child view is no longer needed. If an application associates expensive or heavyweight data with item views, this may be a good place to release or free those resources.

Add an RecyclerView.OnItemTouchListener to intercept touch events before they are dispatched to child views or this view's standard scrolling behavior.

Client code may use listeners to implement item manipulation behavior. Once a listener returns true from onInterceptTouchEvent(RecyclerView, MotionEvent) itsonTouchEvent(RecyclerView, MotionEvent) method will be called for each incoming MotionEvent until the end of the gesture.

Add a listener that will be notified of any changes in scroll state or position.

Components that add a listener should take care to remove it when finished. Other components that take ownership of a view may call clearOnScrollListeners()to remove all attached listeners.

Removes all listeners that were added via addOnChildAttachStateChangeListener(OnChildAttachStateChangeListener).

Remove all secondary listener that were notified of any changes in scroll state or position.

Compute the horizontal extent of the horizontal scrollbar's thumb within the horizontal range. This value is used to compute the length of the thumb within the scrollbar's track.

The range is expressed in arbitrary units that must be the same as the units used by computeHorizontalScrollRange() and computeHorizontalScrollOffset().

Default implementation returns 0.

If you want to support scroll bars, override computeHorizontalScrollExtent(RecyclerView.State) in your LayoutManager.

Compute the horizontal offset of the horizontal scrollbar's thumb within the horizontal range. This value is used to compute the length of the thumb within the scrollbar's track.

The range is expressed in arbitrary units that must be the same as the units used by computeHorizontalScrollRange() and computeHorizontalScrollExtent().

Default implementation returns 0.

If you want to support scroll bars, override computeHorizontalScrollOffset(RecyclerView.State) in your LayoutManager.

Compute the horizontal range that the horizontal scrollbar represents.

The range is expressed in arbitrary units that must be the same as the units used by computeHorizontalScrollExtent() and computeHorizontalScrollOffset().

Default implementation returns 0.

If you want to support scroll bars, override computeHorizontalScrollRange(RecyclerView.State) in your LayoutManager.

Compute the vertical extent of the vertical scrollbar's thumb within the vertical range. This value is used to compute the length of the thumb within the scrollbar's track.

The range is expressed in arbitrary units that must be the same as the units used by computeVerticalScrollRange() and computeVerticalScrollOffset().

Default implementation returns 0.

If you want to support scroll bars, override computeVerticalScrollExtent(RecyclerView.State) in your LayoutManager.

Compute the vertical offset of the vertical scrollbar's thumb within the vertical range. This value is used to compute the length of the thumb within the scrollbar's track.

The range is expressed in arbitrary units that must be the same as the units used by computeVerticalScrollRange() and computeVerticalScrollExtent().

Default implementation returns 0.

If you want to support scroll bars, override computeVerticalScrollOffset(RecyclerView.State) in your LayoutManager.

Compute the vertical range that the vertical scrollbar represents.

The range is expressed in arbitrary units that must be the same as the units used by computeVerticalScrollExtent() and computeVerticalScrollOffset().

Default implementation returns 0.

If you want to support scroll bars, override computeVerticalScrollRange(RecyclerView.State) in your LayoutManager.

Dispatch a fling to a nested scrolling parent.

This method should be used to indicate that a nested scrolling child has detected suitable conditions for a fling. Generally this means that a touch scroll has ended with a velocity in the direction of scrolling that meets or exceeds the minimum fling velocity along a scrollable axis.

If a nested scrolling child view would normally fling but it is at the edge of its own content, it can use this method to delegate the fling to its nested scrolling parent instead. The parent may optionally consume the fling or observe a child fling.

Dispatch a fling to a nested scrolling parent before it is processed by this view.

Nested pre-fling events are to nested fling events what touch intercept is to touch and what nested pre-scroll is to nested scroll. dispatchNestedPreFling offsets an opportunity for the parent view in a nested fling to fully consume the fling before the child view consumes it. If this method returns true, a nested parent view consumed the fling and this view should not scroll as a result.

For a better user experience, only one view in a nested scrolling chain should consume the fling at a time. If a parent view consumed the fling this method will return false. Custom view implementations should account for this in two ways:

• If a custom view is paged and needs to settle to a fixed page-point, do not call dispatchNestedPreFling; consume the fling and settle to a valid position regardless.
• If a nested parent does consume the fling, this view should not scroll at all, even to settle back to a valid idle position.

Views should also not offer fling velocities to nested parent views along an axis where scrolling is not currently supported; a ScrollView should not offer a horizontal fling velocity to its parents since scrolling along that axis is not permitted and carrying velocity along that motion does not make sense.

Dispatch one step of a nested scroll in progress before this view consumes any portion of it.

Nested pre-scroll events are to nested scroll events what touch intercept is to touch. dispatchNestedPreScroll offers an opportunity for the parent view in a nested scrolling operation to consume some or all of the scroll operation before the child view consumes it.

Dispatch one step of a nested scroll in progress.

Implementations of views that support nested scrolling should call this to report info about a scroll in progress to the current nested scrolling parent. If a nested scroll is not currently in progress or nested scrolling is not enabled for this view this method does nothing.

Compatible View implementations should also call dispatchNestedPreScroll before consuming a component of the scroll event themselves.

Manually render this view (and all of its children) to the given Canvas. The view must have already done a full layout before this function is called. When implementing a view, implement onDraw(android.graphics.Canvas) instead of overriding this method. If you do need to override this method, call the superclass version.

Draw one child of this View Group. This method is responsible for getting the canvas in the right state. This includes clipping, translating so that the child's scrolled origin is at 0, 0, and applying any animation transformations.

Find the topmost view under the given point.

Return the ViewHolder for the item in the given position of the data set. Unlike findViewHolderForLayoutPosition(int) this method takes into account any pending adapter changes that may not be reflected to the layout yet. On the other hand, if notifyDataSetChanged() has been called but the new layout has not been calculated yet, this method will return null since the new positions of views are unknown until the layout is calculated.

This method checks only the children of RecyclerView. If the item at the given position is not laid out, it will not create a new one.

Return the ViewHolder for the item with the given id. The RecyclerView must use an Adapter with stableIds to return a non-null value.

This method checks only the children of RecyclerView. If the item with the given id is not laid out, it will not create a new one.

Return the ViewHolder for the item in the given position of the data set as of the latest layout pass.

This method checks only the children of RecyclerView. If the item at the given position is not laid out, it will not create a new one.

Note that when Adapter contents change, ViewHolder positions are not updated until the next layout calculation. If there are pending adapter updates, the return value of this method may not match your adapter contents. You can use #getAdapterPosition() to get the current adapter position of a ViewHolder.

Begin a standard fling with an initial velocity along each axis in pixels per second. If the velocity given is below the system-defined minimum this method will return false and no fling will occur.

Find the nearest view in the specified direction that wants to take focus.

Returns a new set of layout parameters based on the supplied attributes set.

Retrieves the previously set adapter or null if no adapter is set.

Return the offset of the RecyclerView's text baseline from the its top boundary. If the LayoutManager of this RecyclerView does not support baseline alignment, this method returns -1.

Return the adapter position that the given child view corresponds to.

Return the stable item id that the given child view corresponds to.

Return the adapter position of the given child view as of the latest completed layout pass.

This position may not be equal to Item's adapter position if there are pending changes in the adapter which have not been reflected to the layout yet.

Retrieve the RecyclerView.ViewHolder for the given child view.

Returns the accessibility delegate compatibility implementation used by the RecyclerView.

Gets the current ItemAnimator for this RecyclerView. A null return value indicates that there is no animator and that item changes will happen without any animations. By default, RecyclerView instantiates and uses an instance of DefaultItemAnimator.

Return the RecyclerView.LayoutManager currently responsible for layout policy for this RecyclerView.

Returns the maximum fling velocity used by this RecyclerView.

Returns the minimum velocity to start a fling.

Retrieve this RecyclerView's RecyclerView.RecycledViewPool. This method will never return null; if no pool is set for this view a new one will be created. SeesetRecycledViewPool for more information.

Return the current scrolling state of the RecyclerView.

Returns true if this view has a nested scrolling parent.

The presence of a nested scrolling parent indicates that this view has initiated a nested scroll and it was accepted by an ancestor view further up the view hierarchy.

Returns whether there are pending adapter updates which are not yet applied to the layout.

If this method returns true, it means that what user is currently seeing may not reflect them adapter contents (depending on what has changed). You may use this information to defer or cancel some operations.

This method returns true if RecyclerView has not yet calculated the first layout after it is attached to the Window or the Adapter has been replaced.

Invalidates all ItemDecorations. If RecyclerView has item decorations, calling this method will trigger a requestLayout() call.

Returns true if RecyclerView is currently running some animations.

If you want to be notified when animations are finished, use isRunning(ItemAnimator.ItemAnimatorFinishedListener).

Returns true if RecyclerView is attached to window.

Returns whether RecyclerView is currently computing a layout.

If this method returns true, it means that RecyclerView is in a lockdown state and any attempt to update adapter contents will result in an exception because adapter contents cannot be changed while RecyclerView is trying to compute the layout.

It is very unlikely that your code will be running during this state as it is called by the framework when a layout traversal happens or RecyclerView starts to scroll in response to system events (touch, accessibility etc).

This case may happen if you have some custom logic to change adapter contents in response to a View callback (e.g. focus change callback) which might be triggered during a layout calculation. In these cases, you should just postpone the change using a Handler or a similar mechanism.

Returns true if layout and scroll are frozen.

Returns true if nested scrolling is enabled for this view.

If nested scrolling is enabled and this View class implementation supports it, this view will act as a nested scrolling child view when applicable, forwarding data about the scroll operation in progress to a compatible and cooperating nested scrolling parent.

Offset the bounds of all child views by dx pixels. Useful for implementing simple scrolling in LayoutManagers.

Offset the bounds of all child views by dy pixels. Useful for implementing simple scrolling in LayoutManagers.

Called when an item view is attached to this RecyclerView.

Subclasses of RecyclerView may want to perform extra bookkeeping or modifications of child views as they become attached. This will be called before aRecyclerView.LayoutManager measures or lays out the view and is a good time to perform these changes.

Called when an item view is detached from this RecyclerView.

Subclasses of RecyclerView may want to perform extra bookkeeping or modifications of child views as they become detached. This will be called as aRecyclerView.LayoutManager fully detaches the child view from the parent and its window.

Implement this to do your drawing.

Implement this method to handle generic motion events.

Generic motion events describe joystick movements, mouse hovers, track pad touches, scroll wheel movements and other input events. The source of the motion event specifies the class of input that was received. Implementations of this method must examine the bits in the source before processing the event. The following code example shows how this is done.

Generic motion events with source class SOURCE_CLASS_POINTER are delivered to the view under the pointer. All other generic motion events are delivered to the focused view.

 public boolean onGenericMotionEvent(MotionEvent event) {
     if (event.isFromSource(InputDevice.SOURCE_CLASS_JOYSTICK)) {
         if (event.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_MOVE) {
             // process the joystick movement...
             return true;
         }
     }
     if (event.isFromSource(InputDevice.SOURCE_CLASS_POINTER)) {
         switch (event.getAction()) {
             case MotionEvent.ACTION_HOVER_MOVE:
                 // process the mouse hover movement...
                 return true;
             case MotionEvent.ACTION_SCROLL:
                 // process the scroll wheel movement...
                 return true;
         }
     }
     return super.onGenericMotionEvent(event);
 }

Implement this method to intercept all touch screen motion events. This allows you to watch events as they are dispatched to your children, and take ownership of the current gesture at any point.

Using this function takes some care, as it has a fairly complicated interaction with View.onTouchEvent(MotionEvent), and using it requires implementing that method as well as this one in the correct way. Events will be received in the following order:

1. You will receive the down event here.
2. The down event will be handled either by a child of this view group, or given to your own onTouchEvent() method to handle; this means you should implement onTouchEvent() to return true, so you will continue to see the rest of the gesture (instead of looking for a parent view to handle it). Also, by returning true from onTouchEvent(), you will not receive any following events in onInterceptTouchEvent() and all touch processing must happen in onTouchEvent() like normal.
3. For as long as you return false from this function, each following event (up to and including the final up) will be delivered first here and then to the target's onTouchEvent().
4. If you return true from here, you will not receive any following events: the target view will receive the same event but with the action ACTION_CANCEL, and all further events will be delivered to your onTouchEvent() method and no longer appear here.

Called when the scroll state of this RecyclerView changes. Subclasses should use this method to respond to state changes instead of an explicit listener.

This method will always be invoked before listeners, but after the LayoutManager responds to the scroll state change.

Called when the scroll position of this RecyclerView changes. Subclasses should use this method to respond to scrolling within the adapter's data set instead of an explicit listener.

This method will always be invoked before listeners. If a subclass needs to perform any additional upkeep or bookkeeping after scrolling but before listeners run, this is a good place to do so.

This differs from onScrollChanged(int, int, int, int) in that it receives the distance scrolled in either direction within the adapter's data set instead of absolute scroll coordinates. Since RecyclerView cannot compute the absolute scroll position from any arbitrary point in the data set, onScrollChanged will always receive the current getScrollX() and getScrollY() values which do not correspond to the data set scroll position. However, some subclasses may choose to use these fields as special offsets.

Implement this method to handle touch screen motion events.

If this method is used to detect click actions, it is recommended that the actions be performed by implementing and calling performClick(). This will ensure consistent system behavior, including:

• obeying click sound preferences
• dispatching OnClickListener calls
• handling ACTION_CLICK when accessibility features are enabled

Remove an RecyclerView.ItemDecoration from this RecyclerView.

The given decoration will no longer impact the measurement and drawing of item views.

Removes the provided listener from child attached state listeners list.

Remove an RecyclerView.OnItemTouchListener. It will no longer be able to intercept touch events.

Remove a listener that was notified of any changes in scroll state or position.

Called when a child of this parent wants focus

Called when a child of this group wants a particular rectangle to be positioned onto the screen. ViewGroups overriding this can trust that:

• child will be a direct child of this group
• rectangle will be in the child's coordinates

ViewGroups overriding this should uphold the contract:

• nothing will change if the rectangle is already visible
• the view port will be scrolled only just enough to make the rectangle visible

Called when a child does not want this parent and its ancestors to intercept touch events with onInterceptTouchEvent(MotionEvent).

This parent should pass this call onto its parents. This parent must obey this request for the duration of the touch (that is, only clear the flag after this parent has received an up or a cancel.

Call this when something has changed which has invalidated the layout of this view. This will schedule a layout pass of the view tree. This should not be called while the view hierarchy is currently in a layout pass (isInLayout(). If layout is happening, the request may be honored at the end of the current layout pass (and then layout will run again) or after the current frame is drawn and the next layout occurs.

Subclasses which override this method should call the superclass method to handle possible request-during-layout errors correctly.

Move the scrolled position of your view. This will cause a call to onScrollChanged(int, int, int, int) and the view will be invalidated.

Set the scrolled position of your view. This will cause a call to onScrollChanged(int, int, int, int) and the view will be invalidated.

Convenience method to scroll to a certain position. RecyclerView does not implement scrolling logic, rather forwards the call to scrollToPosition(int)

This method behaves exactly as sendAccessibilityEvent(int) but takes as an argument an empty AccessibilityEvent and does not perform a check whether accessibility is enabled.

If an View.AccessibilityDelegate has been specified via calling setAccessibilityDelegate(AccessibilityDelegate) itssendAccessibilityEventUnchecked(View, AccessibilityEvent) is responsible for handling this call.

Sets the accessibility delegate compatibility implementation used by RecyclerView.

Set a new adapter to provide child views on demand.

When adapter is changed, all existing views are recycled back to the pool. If the pool has only one adapter, it will be cleared.

Sets the RecyclerView.ChildDrawingOrderCallback to be used for drawing children.

See getChildDrawingOrder(int, int) for details. Calling this method will always call setChildrenDrawingOrderEnabled(boolean). The parameter will be true if childDrawingOrderCallback is not null, false otherwise.

Note that child drawing order may be overridden by View's elevation.

Sets whether this ViewGroup will clip its children to its padding and resize (but not clip) any EdgeEffect to the padded region, if padding is present.

By default, children are clipped to the padding of their parent ViewGroup. This clipping behavior is only enabled if padding is non-zero.

RecyclerView can perform several optimizations if it can know in advance that changes in adapter content cannot change the size of the RecyclerView itself. If your use of RecyclerView falls into this category, set this to true.

Sets the RecyclerView.ItemAnimator that will handle animations involving changes to the items in this RecyclerView. By default, RecyclerView instantiates and uses an instance of DefaultItemAnimator. Whether item animations are enabled for the RecyclerView depends on the ItemAnimator and whether the LayoutManager supports item animations.

Set the number of offscreen views to retain before adding them to the potentially shared recycled view pool.

The offscreen view cache stays aware of changes in the attached adapter, allowing a LayoutManager to reuse those views unmodified without needing to return to the adapter to rebind them.

Enable or disable layout and scroll. After setLayoutFrozen(true) is called, Layout requests will be postponed until setLayoutFrozen(false) is called; child views are not updated when RecyclerView is frozen, smoothScrollBy(int, int), scrollBy(int, int), scrollToPosition(int) and smoothScrollToPosition(int)are dropped; TouchEvents and GenericMotionEvents are dropped; onFocusSearchFailed(View, int, Recycler, State) will not be called.

setLayoutFrozen(true) does not prevent app from directly calling scrollToPosition(int), smoothScrollToPosition(RecyclerView, State, int).

setAdapter(Adapter) and swapAdapter(Adapter, boolean) will automatically stop frozen.

Note: Running ItemAnimator is not stopped automatically, it's caller's responsibility to call ItemAnimator.end().

Set the RecyclerView.LayoutManager that this RecyclerView will use.

In contrast to other adapter-backed views such as ListView or GridView, RecyclerView allows client code to provide custom layout arrangements for child views. These arrangements are controlled by the RecyclerView.LayoutManager. A LayoutManager must be provided for RecyclerView to function.

Several default strategies are provided for common uses such as lists and grids.

Enable or disable nested scrolling for this view.

If this property is set to true the view will be permitted to initiate nested scrolling operations with a compatible parent view in the current hierarchy. If this view does not implement nested scrolling this will have no effect. Disabling nested scrolling while a nested scroll is in progress has the effect of stopping the nested scroll.

Set a listener that will be notified of any changes in scroll state or position.

Recycled view pools allow multiple RecyclerViews to share a common pool of scrap views. This can be useful if you have multiple RecyclerViews with adapters that use the same view types, for example if you have several data sets with the same kinds of item views displayed by a ViewPager.

Register a listener that will be notified whenever a child view is recycled.

This listener will be called when a LayoutManager or the RecyclerView decides that a child view is no longer needed. If an application associates expensive or heavyweight data with item views, this may be a good place to release or free those resources.

Configure the scrolling touch slop for a specific use case. Set up the RecyclerView's scrolling motion threshold based on common usages. Valid arguments areTOUCH_SLOP_DEFAULT and TOUCH_SLOP_PAGING.

Sets a new RecyclerView.ViewCacheExtension to be used by the Recycler.

Animate a scroll by the given amount of pixels along either axis.

Starts a smooth scroll to an adapter position.

To support smooth scrolling, you must override smoothScrollToPosition(RecyclerView, State, int) and create a RecyclerView.SmoothScroller.

RecyclerView.LayoutManager is responsible for creating the actual scroll action. If you want to provide a custom smooth scroll logic, overridesmoothScrollToPosition(RecyclerView, State, int) in your LayoutManager.

Begin a nestable scroll operation along the given axes.

A view starting a nested scroll promises to abide by the following contract:

The view will call startNestedScroll upon initiating a scroll operation. In the case of a touch scroll this corresponds to the initial ACTION_DOWN. In the case of touch scrolling the nested scroll will be terminated automatically in the same manner as requestDisallowInterceptTouchEvent(boolean). In the event of programmatic scrolling the caller must explicitly call stopNestedScroll() to indicate the end of the nested scroll.

If startNestedScroll returns true, a cooperative parent was found. If it returns false the caller may ignore the rest of this contract until the next scroll. Calling startNestedScroll while a nested scroll is already in progress will return true.

At each incremental step of the scroll the caller should invoke dispatchNestedPreScroll once it has calculated the requested scrolling delta. If it returns true the nested scrolling parent at least partially consumed the scroll and the caller should adjust the amount it scrolls by.

After applying the remainder of the scroll delta the caller should invoke dispatchNestedScroll, passing both the delta consumed and the delta unconsumed. A nested scrolling parent may treat these values differently. See onNestedScroll(View, int, int, int, int).

Stop a nested scroll in progress.

Calling this method when a nested scroll is not currently in progress is harmless.

Stop any current scroll in progress, such as one started by smoothScrollBy(int, int), fling(int, int) or a touch-initiated fling.

Swaps the current adapter with the provided one. It is similar to setAdapter(Adapter) but assumes existing adapter and the new adapter uses the sameRecyclerView.ViewHolder and does not clear the RecycledViewPool.

Note that it still calls onAdapterChanged callbacks.

Override to prevent thawing of any views created by the adapter.

Override to prevent freezing of any views created by the adapter.

Returns a set of default layout parameters. These parameters are requested when the View passed to addView(View) has no layout parameters already set. If null is returned, an exception is thrown from addView.

Returns a safe set of layout parameters based on the supplied layout params. When a ViewGroup is passed a View whose layout params do not pass the test ofcheckLayoutParams(android.view.ViewGroup.LayoutParams), this method is invoked. This method should return a new set of layout params suitable for this ViewGroup, possibly by copying the appropriate attributes from the specified set of layout params.

Returns the index of the child to draw for this iteration. Override this if you want to change the drawing order of children. By default, it returns i.

NOTE: In order for this method to be called, you must enable child ordering first by calling setChildrenDrawingOrderEnabled(boolean).

This is called when the view is attached to a window. At this point it has a Surface and will start drawing. Note that this function is guaranteed to be called beforeonDraw(android.graphics.Canvas), however it may be called any time before the first onDraw -- including before or after onMeasure(int, int).

This is called when the view is detached from a window. At this point it no longer has a surface for drawing.

Called from layout when this view should assign a size and position to each of its children. Derived classes with children should override this method and call layout on each of their children.

Measure the view and its content to determine the measured width and the measured height. This method is invoked by measure(int, int) and should be overridden by subclasses to provide accurate and efficient measurement of their contents.

CONTRACT: When overriding this method, you must call setMeasuredDimension(int, int) to store the measured width and height of this view. Failure to do so will trigger an IllegalStateException, thrown by measure(int, int). Calling the superclass' onMeasure(int, int) is a valid use.

The base class implementation of measure defaults to the background size, unless a larger size is allowed by the MeasureSpec. Subclasses should overrideonMeasure(int, int) to provide better measurements of their content.

If this method is overridden, it is the subclass's responsibility to make sure the measured height and width are at least the view's minimum height and width (getSuggestedMinimumHeight() and getSuggestedMinimumWidth()).

Hook allowing a view to re-apply a representation of its internal state that had previously been generated by onSaveInstanceState(). This function will never be called with a null state.

Hook allowing a view to generate a representation of its internal state that can later be used to create a new instance with that same state. This state should only contain information that is not persistent or can not be reconstructed later. For example, you will never store your current position on screen because that will be computed again when a new instance of the view is placed in its view hierarchy.

Some examples of things you may store here: the current cursor position in a text view (but usually not the text itself since that is stored in a content provider or other persistent storage), the currently selected item in a list view.

This is called during layout when the size of this view has changed. If you were just added to the view hierarchy, you're called with the old values of 0.

Finishes the removal of a detached view. This method will dispatch the detached from window event and notify the hierarchy change listener.

This method is intended to be lightweight and makes no assumptions about whether the parent or child should be redrawn. Proper use of this method will include also making any appropriate requestLayout() or invalidate() calls. For example, callers can post a Runnable which performs a requestLayout() on the next frame, after all detach/remove calls are finished, causing layout to be run prior to redrawing the view hierarchy.
