In this part of my app, I am trying to implement deleting of selected favorite items via contextual action mode/bar, the problem is when I select an item then delete, it's deleted from the database and selected list but it is still available in recyclerView and it adds a duplicate from another item, the following gif clarify the problem

favorites_contextual_menu xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto">
<item
android:id="@+id/delete_favorites_post"
android:title="@string/delete_post"
app:showAsAction="ifRoom"
app:iconTint="@color/white"
android:icon="@drawable/ic_delete"
>
</item>
</menu>
PS: I tried to get the selected position from the holder and assign it to selectedPostPosition int value to use it in notifyItemRemoved(position);
and notifyItemRangeChanged(position, getItemCount());
like in this answer but it doesn't fix the issue
The problem was happening because variable
private List<FavoritesEntity> favoritesList;
inside FavouritesFragment
which kept all previous objects even after deleting items from a local database.
On every delete event, you were getting updates about database change -> postViewModel.metal favorites().observe
, where you called addAll
to this reference which contained all previous items.
