This is an android library "BlankSpace" by Battle Entertainment
dependencies {
compile 'com.github.battleent:BlankSpace:1.0.3'
}
We always write too many XML codes just showing "no-result" or "try to reconnect" screens.
Then we can't avoid two section screen(main is visible, no-result is gone) in xml.
That makes we sometimes little confused.
In below case we will get confused because it's not intuitive.
blankSpace = new BlankSpace(getBaseContext(), R.layout.layout_no_comment);
RelativeLayout layout = findViewById(R.id.mainlayout);
blankSpace.show(layout);
You can use just like a popup.
blankSpacePopup = new BlankSpacePopup(getBaseContext(), R.layout.layout_not_found);
blankSpacePopup.setLifecycleOwner(this);
blankSpacePopup.setAnimation(BlankSpaceAnimation.FADE_IN);
@Override
public void onClick(View view) {
View layout = findViewById(R.id.mainlayout);
blankSpacePopup.show(layout, 0, 20); // layout, xOff, yOff
}
Dialog, PopupWindow and etc.. have memory leak issue if not dismissed before activity or fragment are destroyed.
But Lifecycles are now also integrated with the Support Library since Architecture Components 1.0 Stable released.
So you can solve memory leak issue so easily.
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity implements LifecycleOwner {
--- skip ---
blankSpace.setLifecycleOwner(this);
when MainActivity destroyed, BlankSpace destroyed too.
