Custom view inflated in code doesn't get custom font

I have a custom view with TextViews. Those TextViews have a custom font. If I include an instance of my custom view in XML as part of an activity the custom font will render correctly.

However, if I dynamically create an instance of my custom view the custom font is not applied.

CustomView customView = new CustomView(context);
this.addView(customView);

Inside of my custom view I am inflating the XML:

LayoutInflater.from(context).inflate(R.layout.custom_view, this, true);

As I say, it works correctly unless I create the view dynamically at runtime. Is this a genuine issue or am I overlooking something?

Yeah, that would make perfect sense. There should be a lint check for that.
