Where is ViewBinding GeneratedCode

Question

How/Where Can I find the generated code for ViewBinding?

whenever I try control+click/control+b to see the declaration, AndroidStudio just opens the XML layout.

Answer 1

The generate binding classes reside in app > build > generated > data_binding_base_class_source_out > debug > your app package > databinding

A you can see in the following screenshot all my ViewBinding classes for XML layout are inside the above path

@seyedJafari you need to build the project then after that, you will find it there. – Illconditioned

After trying everything I figured it's a problem of AndroidStudio canary4.0 updated to 4.1 and now can find it – Kasiekask

@Somesh Kumar How do I get to the Android Studio screen you show above? In the Project section of the Tool Window, when I select "Packages" or "Project Files" I am not able to see build > generated > etc... Any thoughts? – Inquisition

@Inquisition You need to make sure you can build your project successfully. Go to Build > Rebuild Project. If it builds successfully you will get the above result ONLY in Project view and not in Packages or Project Files. – Illconditioned

Answer 3

You can use the Ctrl + Shift + N (Go to file) to find the file with BindingImpl suffix.

it does not find the file I have tried all the search options in AS – Kasiekask

Navigation in AS only worked for me after I marked the app/build/generated directory as "Generated sources root" (right click on the directory > Mark directory as...) – Randee

Answer 4

The name of the generated class for your_layout.xml is YourLayoutBindingImpl.java. so you can find the implementation using double-shift.

Lunge

I think it's YourLayoutBinding.java. And can not find it in any search option of AndroidStudio – Kasiekask

it is possible to use double-shift. if you can't find it you must rebuild the project – Lunge

The double shift won't find the generated files in the build folder. It finds only the files that are in the project view. @RaminAbdolmaleki – Illconditioned

Answer 5

The name of the generated class for my_layout.xml is MyLayoutBinding.java. so you can find the implementation in MyProject/app/build/intermediates/javac/googleDebugStage/classes/you_package/databinding
