Problem in showing list of tables in Recyclerview

[yubarajoli77]

I tried to show the list of tables in recycler view using custom design for row, all goes fine but table only show 4 rows including header i.e all rows are not included when I use layout_height to match_parent. But they are visible when I give static value like 200dp. How to include my all dynamic rows no matter how many rows are there.
Here is my custom row layout

<android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout

android:layout_marginBottom="8dp">

There is no way to make the table grow depending on it's content. It behaves the same as the ListView in Android.
To workaround would be, to set a fixed table height depending on the number of rows.

Thanks for your response. Can we scroll the table view inside recyclerView then ? If, yes your help will be appreciated coz recyclerView stops me from scrolling the table.
Thanks in advance.

Hey, unfortunately the table view cannot change anything about it. You have to make the recycler view forward the scroll events. I don't know how this can be achieved and if this is possible. I also think that the user experience of such a layout will suffer.
