前两天看到文章RecyclerView 和 ListView 使用对比分析，加上之前在公司做code reiview的时候也遇到过RecyclerView和ListView比较的问题，所以想在这里写一篇文章。
这篇文章的重点不会放在两者使用上的不同，因为前面提到的RecyclerView 和 ListView 使用对比分析这篇文章已经写的非常完美了，我就不重复造轮子了，主要想说明的问题和标题一样，就是我们开发者［为什么］要使用RecyclerView去代替ListView。
前言
说起RecyclerView，大家的第一反应就是它是一个威力加强版的ListView，所以在很多时候，我们会对其造成一定的误解——什么？界面顿卡了？上RecyclerView！什么？组件出bug了？上RecyclerView！等等等等…….
首先我们还是先看看Google官方是如何定义RecyclerView的。
The RecyclerView widget is a more advanced and flexible version of ListView. This widget is a container for displaying large data sets that can be scrolled very efficiently by maintaining a limited number of views. Use the RecyclerView widget when you have data collections whose elements change at runtime based on user action or network events.
这段解释意境很清楚，我们确实可以把它看作一个[advanced]的ListView，但是这里我想说的是，千万不要把RecyclerView看成能和ListView［等价替换］的一个组件，更不要把它看做是拯救你滑动组件的救星。
使用过RecyclerView的同学都知道，这个组件是［比较难用］的，为什么这么说呢，我们来想想原来使用ListView的时候，好像一切都已经封装好了，一个api就能添加header和footer，点击事件有对应的listener等等。而RecyclerView好像什么都没有，没有点击事件，没有header和footer，甚至连最起码的divider都没有，什么都要自己写，用起来简直让人抓狂，好像它唯一的优点就是那个无法从代码中体现的［性能］了。
其实并不是这样的，这篇文章也是想让阐述这样的一个观点，让大家知道Google之所以这样做是有他们这样做的道理的。
首先，让我们从性能这一方面入手，看看两个组件在它们各自［回收机制］上有什么区别。
收回机制比较
首先先看ListView的，想要搞清楚回收机制，我们当然要去看它的onTouchEvent中对应的ACTION_MOVE方法。
ListView继承自AbsListView，所以其滑动逻辑会在AbsListView中处理，最终会走到trackMotionScroll这个方法。

现在我们可以知道，在AsbListView中，如果一个View已经滑出了屏幕，那么说明它已经被废弃(scrap)了，就会被添加到RecycleBin中(transient的View除外，这个忽略)。那么我们什么时候去取出这里面存储的View呢？让我们回到onTouchEvent函数。
我们可以看到在trackMotionScroll函数中有一个fillGap方法。

接下去，让我们看看RecyclerView是怎么做的，在RecyclerView的ACTION_MOVE方法中，实际会调用其内部的LayoutManager的scrollBy方法去完成滑动，这里我们看LinearLayoutManager的实现。

从这里我们可以看出，RecyclerView提供了比AbsListView更加完善的回收机制，配以细节的优化和postOnAnimation方法所保证的”Android 16ms”机制，RecyclerView在滑动性能上确实会比AbsListView更出色。
但是虽然经过了优化，但是就像我前面说的RecyclerView并不是万能，对于一些非常复杂的item布局，一旦处理不好，RecyclerView所表现出来的性能也ListView是相差无几的，所以［使用RecyclerView代替ListView］并不仅仅应该体现在这里。
为什么要使用RV
在回答这个问题之前，让我们先思考另外一个问题，为什么在Google推出了RecyclerView并且经过了这么多个版本迭代之后，ListView没有被标明为deprecated呢？在ViewPager和HorizontalScrollView推出以后，Gallery就惨遭deprecated的命运，为毛ListView就没有呢？难道因为它是Google的亲儿子？
在我看来，RecyclerView虽然被标上了加强版AbsListView的标记，但是它们其实是两个不同的控件。AbsListView的子类们有着完善的功能，如果你的滑动组件只想简单的使用滑动显示这个功能，并且想轻松的使用divider，header，footer或者点击事件这些功能，那么使用AbsListView是完全没有问题的。
RecyclerView的重点应该放在［flexible］上，灵活是它［最大］的特点，由于AbsListView的功能完善，所以你想要定制它其实是很困难的，换句话说，AbsLisView已经强耦合了很多和［滑动，回收］无关的功能。这个时候RecyclerView的强大之处就显示出来了，LayoutManager，Adapter，ItemAnimator，ItemDecoration等等各司其职，这使得RecyclerView能够实现深度的定制化。系统提供的三种LayoutManager可以无缝衔接ListView和GridView，瀑布流的实现也变得无分简单。滑动删除和长按交换只需要添加几个类就可以实现。
除此之外，RecyclerView的动画配以局部刷新也是它比较出色的地方，在AbsListView时代，只有一个notifyDatasetChanged方法，想要做局部刷新需要自己去实现，动画更是难做，但是在RecyclerView中，有很多适配局部刷新的api，还有ItemAnimator这样的神器去支持动画，谁用谁知道。
至于点击事件，我在想Google将RecyclerView取名叫这个名字的原因就是想让这个组件只关注［Recycle］，关于点击事件，在ViewHolder中添加是轻而易举的事，封装起来也不难，而且如果把这个逻辑写在组件内部，它的position和动画将会比较难处理，AbsListView里就花了比较多的精力去处理这一方面的逻辑。此外，在我们使用ListView的过程中，如果item中有可点击组件，例如button，那么点击事件的冲突也是一个让开发者很烦恼的事情，但是RecyclerView的好处就是把点击事件的控制权完全的交给开发者，避免了这样的痛苦。
最后，RecyclerView天生支持嵌套滑动，可以很好的配合NestedScrollView或者CoordinatorLayout，而AbsListView则是需要在一定的版本上才支持这个机制，这也算是RV的一个优势吧。
