Avoid passing null as the view root (need to resolve layout parameters on the inflated layout’s root element)

Passing null for root studio gives me this warning:

Avoid passing null as the view root (need to resolve layout parameters on the inflated layout’s root element)

It is showing a null value in getGroupView. Please help.

public class ExpandableListAdapter extends BaseExpandableListAdapter {

    private Context _context;
    private List<String> _listDataHeader; // header titles
    // child data in format of header title, child title
    private HashMap<String, List<String>> _listDataChild;

    public ExpandableListAdapter(Context context, List<String> listDataHeader,
                                 HashMap<String, List<String>> listChildData) {
        super();
        this._context = context;
        this._listDataHeader = listDataHeader;
        this._listDataChild = listChildData;
    }

    @Override

            convertView = infalInflater.inflate(R.layout.list_item, null);


        }

        TextView txtListChild = (TextView) convertView
                .findViewById(R.id.lblListItem);

        txtListChild.setText(childText);
        return convertView;

        }

        TextView lblListHeader = (TextView) convertView

        return convertView;
    }

    @Override

    @Override
