I am working on a very simple sample app that uses ViewModel, coroutines and databinding.

Here the very simple classes used :

class MainFragment : Fragment() {

    companion object {
        fun newInstance() = MainFragment()
    }

    private val viewModel by viewModels<MainViewModel>()

    override fun onCreateView(
        inflater: LayoutInflater, container: ViewGroup?,
        savedInstanceState: Bundle?
    ): View {
        val binding: MainFragmentBinding =
            DataBindingUtil.inflate(inflater, R.layout.main_fragment, container, false)
        binding.lifecycleOwner = viewLifecycleOwner
        binding.model = viewModel
        return binding.root
    }

    override fun onViewCreated(view: View, savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
        super.onViewCreated(view, savedInstanceState)
        viewModel.loadData()
    }
}

class MainViewModel : ViewModel() {

    val txt1 = MutableLiveData<String>()

    val txt2 = Transformations.map(txt1)
    {
        if (it == "test") R.string.yes else R.string.no
    }


    fun loadData() {
        viewModelScope.launch(Dispatchers.IO)
        {
            delay(1000)
            txt1.postValue("test")
        }
    }

}

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layout>
    <data>
        <variable
            name="model"
            type="com.example.myapplication.ui.main.MainViewModel" />
    </data>
    <androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout
        xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
        xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
        xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
        android:id="@+id/main"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        tools:context=".ui.main.MainFragment">

        <TextView
            android:id="@+id/txt1"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:text="@{model.txt1}"
            app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
            app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
            app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent"/>

        <TextView
            android:id="@+id/txt2"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:text="@{model.txt2}"
            app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"
            app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
            app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"/>

    </androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout>
</layout>

Unfortunately, this very simple app crashs with the following stacktrace :

The line 168 of the MainFragmentBindingImpl.java class is the following one:

this.txt2.setText(androidxDatabindingViewDataBindingSafeUnboxModelTxt2GetValue);

So, the issue is the Transformations.map(...). If I remove the binding of the txt2 attribute, everything works correctly.

How can I avoid this bug ?

Thank you for your help.

Set a @BindingAdapter for android:text that takes a resource id. I think it attempts to set the integer initial value of 0, hence the ResourceNotFound. Check for this in your adapter. The value of the string resource id immediately changes from 0 to the correct value.

@JvmStatic
@BindingAdapter("android:text")
fun setTextResource(view: TextView, @StringRes resource: Int) {
    Timber.d("resource id: $resource")
    if (resource == 0) {
        view.text = ""
    } else {
        view.setText(resource)
    }
}
