LiveData is abstract android

Question

I tried initializing my LiveData object and it gives the error: "LiveData is abstract, It cannot be instantiated"

LiveData listLiveData = new LiveData<>();

Answer 1

Since it is abstract (as @CommonsWare says) you need to extend it to a subclass and then override the methods as required in the form:

public class LiveDataSubClass extends LiveData<Location> {

}

See docs for more details
