Can't use convertView in headers

[guilhermearaujo]

The method

public View getRowView(int section, int row, View convertView, ViewGroup parent)

in the SectionAdapter class is always called with convertView and parent as null.

From HeaderListView.java line 262:

View header = mAdapter.getSectionHeaderView(actualSection, null, null);

This way, we cannot reuse inflated headers.

Also, since the parent is null, it is impossible to instantiate a LayoutInflater simply by calling LayoutInflater.from(parent.getContext()). One workaround for this is to pass a context when creating the adapter, and then getting the inflater from that context.
