Data-Binding using LiveData

in Basic Sample, ProductFragment.java

// Observe product data
model.getObservableProduct().observe(this, new Observer<ProductEntity>() {
    @Override
    public void onChanged(@Nullable ProductEntity productEntity) {
        model.setProduct(productEntity);
   }
});

We observe for a change in LiveData<ProductEntity> mObservableProduct. When a change is there we set ObservableField<ProductEntity> product so that the data-binding library updates the UI. It seems like too much work perhaps.

My understanding would be that since LiveData cares about the lifecycle owner and not the view, hence databinding doesn’t support LiveData. Is that so? @yigit If this is the right way of doing it, is there any better way of using Data-Binding with LiveData?

We are going to make data binding lifecycle aware but for that to happens, lifecycle needs to hit 1.0 stable api.

@yigit @JoseAlcerreca Hi! I think, its time to reopen this issue as the lifecycle has already hit 1.0 stable api. Thoughts?
