As kotlin synthetic got deprecated (like every stuff gets in android for no reason), I am currently working to fully migrate to databinding. A problem I am now encountering is, that I for example can't toggle the visibility of an imported layout, it simply says
Unresolved reference: visibility
And this makes even sense, because the variable I am getting from my layout (calibrateRepairBtnView) is another type of binding which has no function visibility.
My question is: How can I solve this WITHOUT writing 10 lines of code, where I toggle the visibility of every item inside my calibrateRepairBtnView? Am I missing something here?
Fragment
@AndroidEntryPoint
class CalibrateRepairMessageFragment : BaseCalibrateRepairFragment<FragmentCalibrateRepairMessageBinding>(
R.layout.fragment_calibrate_repair_message,
) {
private val calibrateRepairMessageBinding: FragmentCalibrateRepairMessageBinding by viewBinding()
override fun onViewCreated(view: View, savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
super.onViewCreated(view, savedInstanceState)
}
private fun sucessState() {
calibrateRepairMessageBinding.calibrateRepairBtnView.visibility // not working anymore
calibrate_repair_btn_view.visibility = View.VISIBLE // worked before
}
