Multiple calls to set LiveData is not observed

Question

I have recently seen a weird issue that is acting as a barrier to my project. Multiple calls to set the live data value does not invoke the observer in the view.

Answer 1

FWIW I had the same problem but solved it like this...

I originally had some code similar to this...

private fun updateMonth(month: Int){
updateMonth.value = UpdateMonth(month, getDaysOfMonth(month))
}

updateMonth(1)
updateMonth(2)
updateMonth(3)

I experienced the same problem as described... But when I made this simple change....

 private fun updateMonth(month: Int) {
        CoroutineScope(Dispatchers.Main).launch {
            updateMonth.value = UpdateMonth(month, getDaysOfMonth(month))
        }
    }

Presumably, each updateMonth is going onto a different thread now, so all of the updates are observed.
