* For performance reasons, view inflation relies heavily on pre-processing of

* to use LayoutInflater with an XmlPullParser over a plain XML file at runtime;
* it only works with an XmlPullParser returned from a compiled resource
* (R.<em>something</em> file.)

* <strong>Note:</strong> This class is <strong>not</strong> thread-safe and a given
* instance should only be accessed by a single thread.
