Set root view in "inflate" or addView

I wonder what would be the difference between setting "stockTableLayout" which is TableLayout as a root of "inflated element"

View newStockRow = inflater.inflate(R.layout.stock_qoute_row, stockTableLayout);

And then modify newStockRow.

VS

View newStockRow = inflater.inflate(R.layout.stock_qoute_row, null);

modify then newStockRow

and then add it via addView 

stockTableLayout.addView(newStockRow);

Thanks to @Luksprog

This method in LayoutInflater class:

public View inflate (int resource, ViewGroup root)

Returns

The root View of the inflated hierarchy. If root was supplied, this is the root View; otherwise it is the root of the inflated XML file.

So first way really returns stockTableLayout. Not new Row that I wanted to insert.

But second return the root element of newly created layout from R.layout.stock_qoute_row reference
