Android Tutorial => Binding with an accessor method

Example

If your model has private methods, the databinding library still allows you to access them in your view without using the full name of the method.

Data model

public class Item {
    private String name;

    public String getName() {
        return name;
    }
}

Layout XML

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
   <data>
       <variable name="item" type="com.example.Item"/>
   </data>

   <LinearLayout
       android:orientation="vertical"
       android:layout_width="match_parent"
       android:layout_height="match_parent">

       <!-- Since the "name" field is private on our data model,
            this binding will utilize the public getName() method instead. -->
       <TextView
           android:layout_width="wrap_content"
           android:layout_height="wrap_content"
           android:text="@{item.name}"/>

   </LinearLayout>
</layout>
