Can recyclerView have the last row with custom item that does not same with the other items?

Question

I have a layout with order list and last row is the total price of those order. And I don't have an idea that how can I do those list items and last row with my desire custom item, together in a recycler view. Do I make some logic in onBindViewHolder? Or, does it have another way, one of the RecyclerView methods?

Thank you @Chithra , you saved my day. I almost do some logic in onBindViewHolder. — KyawLinnThant, Jan 29 '18 at 08:27

You can do this by using below code on your RecyclerAdapter class

@Override
public int getItemViewType(int position) {
    if(position==(getItemCount()-1))return 1;
    else return 2;

}

In onCreateViewHolder inflate your last layout according to your viewType.

@Override
public RecyclerView.ViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(ViewGroup parent, int viewType) {
    if (viewType == 1) {
        // inflate your first item layout & return that viewHolder
    } else {
        // inflate your second item layout & return that viewHolder
    }
}

You can use simple relative or linear layout to display Total price of those orders.

And this layout will place below the recyclerview / Listview in XMl.

if you use above solution then you don't need to use last item of list for displaying total price of those orders.

Can recyclerView have the last row with custom item that does not same with the other items?
