Use props data in navigationOptions header of reactnavigator

Question

I am using react navigation in a react native project. I have a component with a header using navigationOptions.

I am trying to access the props to set a dynamic name but it seems they are undefined. I don't seem to be able to access them inside the navigationOptions object. Any clue?

Could you include your code in the question so we can see if there are any problems with the code? — Todd Chaffee

I realize this is an old question but for the sake of someone else wandering in here in search of help, you should take a look at the state and setParams documentation here:
