How to use different activities for same name recycler view embedded in 2 different cardview?

Question

My program provides an activity with 2 card views which in turn use a single recycler view. It is a learning application so the two-card views are for Java and HTML and they use the same Adapter for recycler view. Both Java and HTML will have an introduction page so I want to open different activity for java introduction and HTML introduction

I tried differentiating between the card views at the time of the click on recycler view views

holder.setItemClickListener(new ItemClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onItemClickListener(View v, int position) {
                Intent intent;
                switch (v.getId()){
                    case R.id.javacardId :
                        if (models.get(position).getTitle().equals("Introduction")){
                            intent = new Intent(c,anotherActivity.class);
                            c.startActivity(intent);
                        }
                        break;
                    case R.id.htmlcardId :
                        if (models.get(position).getTitle().equals("Introduction")){
                        intent = new Intent(c,html_Introduction.class);
                        c.startActivity(intent);
                    }
                    break;
                }

                        c.startActivity(intent);

        });
    }

    @Override
    public int getItemCount() {
        return models.size();
    }
}

I expect the output to be able to differentiate between the introduction recycler view of Java and HTML so that I can assign different activities to them

Answer 1

I suggest you add a parameter to the adapter, which represents the source. For example:

// Adapter:

public class ContentAdapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter<holder> {

    private Context context;
    private List<Model> models;
    private AdapterType type;

    public ContentAdapter(Context context, List<Model> models, AdapterType type){
        this.context = context;
        this.models = models;
        this.type = type;
    }

   // other code here

    @Override
    public void onBindViewHolder(@NonNull holder holder, int position) {
        holder.text.setText(models.get(position).getTitle());
        holder.image.setImageResource(models.get(position).getImage());

        holder.setItemClickListener(new ItemClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onItemClickListener(View v, int position) {
                switch (type) {
                    case AdapterType.JAVA:
                        // Logic
                    case AdapterType.HTML:
                        // Logic
                }
            }
        });
    }
}

// Enum:
public enum AdapterType {
    JAVA, HTML
}

You could also use an integer, for example 0 represent Java, 1 represents HTML, 2 represents Python and so on.
