如何给RecyclerView设置一个emptyView？

网上这些资料好像比较少，有的我也不太懂，还请大神们指点一个简单易懂的。

给楼主之前写的代码，将RecycleView 重写成如下：

public class RecyclerViewEmptySupport extends RecyclerView {

    private View emptyView;
    final private AdapterDataObserver observer = new AdapterDataObserver() {
        @Override
        public void onChanged() {
            checkIfEmpty();
        }

        @Override
        public void onItemRangeInserted(int positionStart, int itemCount) {
            checkIfEmpty();
        }

        @Override
        public void onItemRangeRemoved(int positionStart, int itemCount) {
            checkIfEmpty();
        }
    };

    public RecyclerViewEmptySupport(Context context) {
        super(context);
    }

    public RecyclerViewEmptySupport(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
        super(context, attrs);
    }

    public RecyclerViewEmptySupport(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyle) {
        super(context, attrs, defStyle);
    }

    @Override
    public void setAdapter(Adapter adapter) {
        final Adapter oldAdapter = getAdapter();
        if (oldAdapter != null) {
            oldAdapter.unregisterAdapterDataObserver(observer);
        }
        super.setAdapter(adapter);
        if (adapter != null) {
            adapter.registerAdapterDataObserver(observer);
        }

        checkIfEmpty();
    }

    public void setEmptyView(View emptyView) {
        this.emptyView = emptyView;
        checkIfEmpty();
    }

    void checkIfEmpty() {
        if (emptyView != null && getAdapter() != null) {
            final boolean emptyViewVisible = getAdapter().getItemCount() == 0;
            emptyView.setVisibility(emptyViewVisible ? VISIBLE : GONE);
            setVisibility(emptyViewVisible ? GONE : VISIBLE);
        }
    }
}

外部调用的时候执行mRecyclerView.setEmptyView(mEmptyView);即可。

设置一个Recyclerview的平级view，平时把它GONE掉，recyclerview的item为0时把它visible出来不久好了么
