PrimeNG Header Template

I'm trying to add a span with a tooltip to a column header using PrimeNG version 4.30.

According to this issue, it should be done using pTemplate decorator in a template element (later deprecated in favor of ng-template). The type="body" templates works just fine, but when I try to use it with type="header" the header is just empty, despite the rows being filled just fine. 

<p-column sortable="true">
  <ptemplate pTemplate type="header">
      <label>my field</label>
      <span class="fa fa-question-circle" pTooltip="my tooltip" tooltipPosition="right" tooltipEvent="hover" showDelay="50" hideDelay="200"></span>
  </ptemplate>
  <ng-template let-linha="rowData" pTemplate type="body">
    {{linha.myField}}
  </ng-template>
</p-column>

Changing the order of the templates makes the table fill the rows with the label and span I intended to put on the header, making me suspect it's ignoring not only the type but the first template altogether.

Apparently the type attribute is not the right way to do it, instead you should set the pTemplate directly with the type you want to use. Like this:

<p-column sortable="true">
  <ptemplate pTemplate="header">
      <label>my field</label>
      <span class="fa fa-question-circle" pTooltip="my tooltip" tooltipPosition="right" tooltipEvent="hover" showDelay="50" hideDelay="200"></span>
  </ptemplate>
  <ng-template let-linha="rowData" pTemplate="body">
    {{linha.myField}}
  </ng-template>
</p-column>

This solved the problem.
