RecyclerView ViewHolder Parent is null

Question

RecyclerView ViewHolder Parent is null

Nathan Sokalski 4,111

I have a RecyclerView Adapter for which I need to access the RecyclerView in OnBindViewHolder. Here is the code from OnCreateViewHolder:

public override RecyclerView.ViewHolder OnCreateViewHolder(ViewGroup parent, int viewType)
{ return new NetWinsValuesViewHolder(LayoutInflater.From(parent.Context).Inflate(Resource.Layout.NetWinsValuesLayout, parent, false)); }

In OnBindViewHolder I have the following:

NetWinsValuesViewHolder vh = holder as NetWinsValuesViewHolder;
RecyclerView rvavgnetwins = vh.llRoot.Parent as RecyclerView;

However, vh.llRoot.Parent ends up being null. I have used this technique to access the RecyclerView plenty of times in the past, so why is it returning null here?

I've been making a test for your issue, but as far as the current information is concerned, I need more information about the type of llRoot and how to assign value to it in your code.
