Materialdrawer: slider.removeAllItems() now needs arguments, why?

[fuentepa]

Hi Mike

In my app I need rebuild slider items several times. Before, I call 'slider.removeAllItems()' to remove them and after call slider.addItems for the new items.. All was ok, but now (8.0.3) that don`t works.

Can you create a method (without arguments) for this functionality?

Thanks in advance

• materialdrawer:8.0.3
• androidx.appcompat:appcompat:1.1.0
• com.android.tools.build:gradle:4.0.0
• Android Studio 4.0

The removeAllItems is only a small extension wrapper around the adapteR:

You can simple also call

slider.itemAdapter.clear()

now :)

We may want to add back an extension function for this though to ease transition
