PagingSource.LoadResult.Error

public data final class PagingSource.LoadResult.Error<Key extends Object, Value extends Object> extends PagingSource.LoadResult

Error result object for PagingSource.load.

This return type indicates an expected, recoverable error (such as a network load failure). This failure will be forwarded to the UI as a LoadState.Error, and may be retried.

/**
 * Sample page-keyed PagingSource, which uses Int page number to load pages.
 *
 * Loads Items from network requests via Retrofit to a backend service.
 *
 * Note that the key type is Int, since we're using page number to load a page.
