RecyclerView with in recyclerView with start ActivityOnresult

Question

I have a recycler view(A) containing another recyclerview(B). When I click on the plus icon in recyclerview(A) item, it opens up a new activity with a recyclerview(C). Long pressing and selecting few items and clicking on done. This needs to update a recyclerview(B) on recyclerview (A) item on which I clicked the plus icon.

But instead, all the items of recyclerview(A) which contains recyclerview(B) is being updated.

private void displayUpcomingEvents(View view) {
    upcomingEventsArrayList = new ArrayList<>();
    upcomingEvents = new UpcomingEvents("Meet and greet", "Coffee Connect | ", "Phython", "21 - ", "Jun - ", "22", "Jun", "21 Jun 10 AM", "Washinton");
    upcomingEventsArrayList.add(upcomingEvents);
    upcomingEvents = new UpcomingEvents("Meet and greet", "Coffee Connect | ", "Phython", "21 - ", "Jun - ", "22", "Jun", "21 Jun 10 AM", "Washinton");
    upcomingEventsArrayList.add(upcomingEvents);
    upcomingEvents = new UpcomingEvents("Meet and greet", "Coffee Connect | ", "Phython", "21 - ", "Jun - ", "22", "Jun", "21 Jun 10 AM", "Washinton");
    upcomingEventsArrayList.add(upcomingEvents);
    upcomingEventsAdapter = new RecyclerAdapterUpcomingEvents(getContext(), upcomingEventsArrayList);

    recyclerView = (RecyclerView) view.findViewById(R.id.recycler_view_upcoming_event);

    RecyclerView.LayoutManager mLayoutManager = new LinearLayoutManager(getAppContext());
    recyclerView.setLayoutManager(mLayoutManager);
    recyclerView.setHasFixedSize(true);
    recyclerView.setAdapter(upcomingEventsAdapter);

}

Answer 1

First change your code by this below :

   holder.eventUpcomingAddPeople.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            Activity origin = (Activity) context;
            Intent i = new Intent(getAppContext(), ContactsActivity.class);
            i.putExtra("selectedPosition", position);
            origin.startActivityForResult(i, CONTACT_CODE);
        }
    });

@Override
public void onReceived(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {

if (requestCode == CONTACT_CODE && resultCode == RESULT_OK && data != null) {
    int result = data.getIntExtra("selectedPosition","put a default value in case of null");
    List<Contact> contactsLists = (ArrayList<Contact>) data.getSerializableExtra("contacts");
    contactsList.clear();
    contactsList.addAll(contactsLists);

    contactAdapter.setContactList(contactsLists);
     upcomingEventsAdapter.notifyItemChanged(result);
}
}

on the second activity you should have something like that when you click on done :

int param = getIntent().getIntExtra("selectedPosition");
Intent resultIntent = new Intent();
resultIntent.putExtra("contacts", Your selected contacts);
resultIntent.putExtra("selectedPosition", param);

setResult(RESULT_OK, resultIntent);
finish();

Hope it's clear and helpful :)
