Untriggered

Sometimes, you just want to set the state of a CompoundButton such as a CheckBox or Switch, such as when these items are in a RecyclerView. You also want to listen for when these buttons change their "checked" state. But alas, when you bind the ViewHolder with the checked state, you get a OnCheckedChangeListener callback! The agony! UntriggeredCheckBox and the like allow you to set this checked state without triggering the listener. Wow!

Usage

final UntriggeredCheckBox checkBox = (UntriggeredCheckBox) findViewById(R.id.checkbox);

checkBox.setOnCheckedChangeListener(new CompoundButton.OnCheckedChangeListener() {
    @Override
    public void onCheckedChanged(CompoundButton buttonView, boolean isChecked) {
        Snackbar.make(root, "Checkbox set to " + isChecked + " and I am triggered!", Snackbar.LENGTH_SHORT)
                .show();
    }
});
findViewById(R.id.button).setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
    @Override
    public void onClick(View v) {
        //checkbox will be set, onCheckChanged will not be triggered. All is well
        checkBox.setCheckedUntriggered(!checkBox.isChecked());
    }
});

Support

Please note that this library has a dependency on appcompat. Widgets are subclassed from their AppCompat counterparts, such as AppCompatCheckBox and the like to allow for fancy Material styling on all API levels.

Currently supported CompoundButtons are:

• CheckBox
• RadioButton
• Switch
• SwitchCompat
• ToggleButton

And some others:

• SeekBar
• RatingBar
• Spinner

Feel free to make a PR if you feel another widget should be added! They are very simple to make.
