Is there any difference between getLayoutInflater() and .getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE)

Question

Simple \"No\" answer will calm me. If there is any difference then what it is?

Answer 1

There is at least one situation that only

getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);

must be used instead of the counterpart

getLayoutInflater

That situation is in an arbitrary object class. For example, I have an instance of class call objectA. In objectA, I want to inflate a view onto the parent view (happen in ArrayAdapter that inflates customized row on the its listview.) In this case, context.getLayoutInflater does not work since there is no activity or windows associated with the context. Only getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE) is appropriate then.
