Get item view type iterates all items

[abdurahmanadilovic]

I noticed this code in the GenericAdapter

  @Override
    public int getItemViewType(int position) {
        Class<?> lItemClass = mObjectList.get(position).getClass();
        for (int i = 0; i < mModels.size(); i++) {
            if (mModels.get(i).getItemType().equals(lItemClass)) {
                return i;
            }
        }
        return -1;
    }

Why is it necessary to iterate over all items to get item type? And why do you return an item position as item view type? Since items of different types can be non sequential positions like [type1, type2, type1, type2], it would be easier to just get an item and return item.getType() method result.

You are right, a better data structure can be used here. Will work on this as part of v2 developments.
