Description

Android - Unable to set footerView of ListView once it is rendered. Has no effect when use,

$.listView.footerView = footerView;

and when setFooterView is called, the following error is printed on the console.

[ERROR] :  TiExceptionHandler: (main) [6821,8711] ----- Titanium Javascript Runtime Error -----
[ERROR] :  TiExceptionHandler: (main) [0,8711] - In undefined:35,20
[ERROR] :  TiExceptionHandler: (main) [1,8712] - Message: Uncaught TypeError: Object #<ListView> has no method 'setFooterView'
[ERROR] :  TiExceptionHandler: (main) [0,8712] - Source:         $.listView.setFooterView(null);
[ERROR] :  V8Exception: Exception occurred at undefined:35: Uncaught TypeError: Object #<ListView> has no method 'setFooterView'

Additional notes : Works as expected on iOS. On Android - able to set footerView only on creation.

On Android, headerView and footerView are creation only properties (http://docs.appcelerator.com/platform/latest/#!/api/Titanium.UI.ListView-property-headerView). This is because it is required that we have to add header and footer views before setting the adapter.

Hi [~hpham], This is not documented in list view. It must be documented.
