Android异步处理一：使用Thread+Handler实现非UI线程更新UI界面

Android异步处理二：使用AsyncTask异步更新UI界面

Android异步处理三：Handler+Looper+MessageQueue深入详解

Android异步处理四：AsyncTask的实现原理

 

在《Android异步处理一：使用Thread+Handler实现非UI线程更新UI界面》中，我们讲到使用Thread+Handler的方式来实现界面的更新，其实是在非UI线程发送消息到UI线程，通知UI线程进行界面更新，这一篇我们将深入学习Android线程间通讯的实现原理。

概述：Android使用消息机制实现线程间的通信，线程通过Looper建立自己的消息循环，MessageQueue是FIFO的消息队列，Looper负责从MessageQueue中取出消息，并且分发到消息指定目标Handler对象。Handler对象绑定到线程的局部变量Looper，封装了发送消息和处理消息的接口。

例子：在介绍原理之前，我们先介绍Android线程通讯的一个例子，这个例子实现点击按钮之后从主线程发送消息"hello"到另外一个名为” CustomThread”的线程。

我们看到，为一个线程建立消息循环有四个步骤：

1、  初始化Looper

2、  绑定handler到CustomThread实例的Looper对象

3、  定义处理消息的方法

4、  启动消息循环

下面我们以这个例子为线索，深入Android源代码，说明Android Framework是如何建立消息循环，并对消息进行分发的。

1、  初始化Looper : Looper.prepare()

Looper.java

[java] view plaincopyprint?
  1. privatestaticfinal ThreadLocal sThreadLocal = new ThreadLocal(); 
  2. publicstaticfinalvoid prepare() { 
  3.         if (sThreadLocal.get() != null) { 
  4.             thrownew RuntimeException("Only one Looper may be created per thread"); 
  5.         } 
  6.         sThreadLocal.set(new Looper()); 
  7. }  
private static final ThreadLocal sThreadLocal = new ThreadLocal();
public static final void prepare() {
        if (sThreadLocal.get() != null) {
            throw new RuntimeException("Only one Looper may be created per thread");
        }
        sThreadLocal.set(new Looper());
}

一个线程在调用Looper的静态方法prepare()时，这个线程会新建一个Looper对象，并放入到线程的局部变量中，而这个变量是不和其他线程共享的（关于ThreadLocal的介绍）。下面我们看看Looper()这个构造函数：

Looper.java

[java] view plaincopyprint?
  1. final MessageQueue mQueue; 
  2. private Looper() { 
  3.         mQueue = new MessageQueue(); 
  4.         mRun = true; 
  5.         mThread = Thread.currentThread(); 
  6.     }  
final MessageQueue mQueue;
private Looper() {
        mQueue = new MessageQueue();
        mRun = true;
        mThread = Thread.currentThread();
    }

可以看到在Looper的构造函数中，创建了一个消息队列对象mQueue，此时，调用Looper. prepare()的线程就建立起一个消息循环的对象（此时还没开始进行消息循环）。

2、  绑定handler到CustomThread实例的Looper对象 : mHandler= new Handler()

Handler.java

[java] view plaincopyprint?
  1. final MessageQueue mQueue; 
  2. final Looper mLooper; 
  3. public Handler() { 
  4.         if (FIND_POTENTIAL_LEAKS) { 
  5.             final Class<? extends Handler> klass = getClass(); 
  6.             if ((klass.isAnonymousClass() || klass.isMemberClass() || klass.isLocalClass()) && 
  7.                     (klass.getModifiers() & Modifier.STATIC) == 0) { 
  8.                 Log.w(TAG, "The following Handler class should be static or leaks might occur: " + 
  9.                     klass.getCanonicalName()); 
  10.             } 
  11.         } 
  12.  
  13.         mLooper = Looper.myLooper(); 
  14.         if (mLooper == null) { 
  15.             thrownew RuntimeException( 
  16.                 "Can't create handler inside thread that has not called Looper.prepare()"); 
  17.         } 
  18.         mQueue = mLooper.mQueue; 
  19.         mCallback = null; 
  20. }  
final MessageQueue mQueue;
 final Looper mLooper;
public Handler() {
        if (FIND_POTENTIAL_LEAKS) {
            final Class<? extends Handler> klass = getClass();
            if ((klass.isAnonymousClass() || klass.isMemberClass() || klass.isLocalClass()) &&
                    (klass.getModifiers() & Modifier.STATIC) == 0) {
                Log.w(TAG, "The following Handler class should be static or leaks might occur: " +
                    klass.getCanonicalName());
            }
        }

        mLooper = Looper.myLooper();
        if (mLooper == null) {
            throw new RuntimeException(
                "Can't create handler inside thread that has not called Looper.prepare()");
        }
        mQueue = mLooper.mQueue;
        mCallback = null;
}

Handler通过mLooper = Looper.myLooper();绑定到线程的局部变量Looper上去，同时Handler通过mQueue =mLooper.mQueue;获得线程的消息队列。此时，Handler就绑定到创建此Handler对象的线程的消息队列上了。

3、定义处理消息的方法：Override public void handleMessage (Message msg){}

     子类需要覆盖这个方法，实现接受到消息后的处理方法。

4、启动消息循环 ： Looper.loop()

      所有准备工作都准备好了，是时候启动消息循环了！Looper的静态方法loop()实现了消息循环。

Looper.java

[java] view plaincopyprint?
  1. publicstaticfinalvoid loop() { 
  2.        Looper me = myLooper(); 
  3.        MessageQueue queue = me.mQueue; 
  4.         
  5.        // Make sure the identity of this thread is that of the local process,  
  6.        // and keep track of what that identity token actually is.  
  7.        Binder.clearCallingIdentity(); 
  8.        finallong ident = Binder.clearCallingIdentity(); 
  9.         
  10.        while (true) { 
  11.            Message msg = queue.next(); // might block  
  12.            //if (!me.mRun) {  
  13.            //    break;  
  14.            //}  
  15.            if (msg != null) { 
  16.                if (msg.target == null) { 
  17.                    // No target is a magic identifier for the quit message.  
  18.                    return; 
  19.                } 
  20.                if (me.mLogging!= null) me.mLogging.println( 
  21.                        ">>>>> Dispatching to " + msg.target + " " 
  22.                        + msg.callback + ": " + msg.what 
  23.                        ); 
  24.                msg.target.dispatchMessage(msg); 
  25.                if (me.mLogging!= null) me.mLogging.println( 
  26.                        "<<<<< Finished to    " + msg.target + " " 
  27.                        + msg.callback); 
  28.                 
  29.                // Make sure that during the course of dispatching the  
  30.                // identity of the thread wasn't corrupted.  
  31.                finallong newIdent = Binder.clearCallingIdentity(); 
  32.                if (ident != newIdent) { 
  33.                    Log.wtf("Looper", "Thread identity changed from 0x" 
  34.                            + Long.toHexString(ident) + " to 0x" 
  35.                            + Long.toHexString(newIdent) + " while dispatching to " 
  36.                            + msg.target.getClass().getName() + " " 
  37.                            + msg.callback + " what=" + msg.what); 
  38.                } 
  39.                 
  40.                msg.recycle(); 
  41.            } 
  42.        } 
  43.    }  
 public static final void loop() {
        Looper me = myLooper();
        MessageQueue queue = me.mQueue;
        
        // Make sure the identity of this thread is that of the local process,
        // and keep track of what that identity token actually is.
        Binder.clearCallingIdentity();
        final long ident = Binder.clearCallingIdentity();
        
        while (true) {
            Message msg = queue.next(); // might block
            //if (!me.mRun) {
            //    break;
            //}
            if (msg != null) {
                if (msg.target == null) {
                    // No target is a magic identifier for the quit message.
                    return;
                }
                if (me.mLogging!= null) me.mLogging.println(
                        ">>>>> Dispatching to " + msg.target + " "
                        + msg.callback + ": " + msg.what
                        );
                msg.target.dispatchMessage(msg);
                if (me.mLogging!= null) me.mLogging.println(
                        "<<<<< Finished to    " + msg.target + " "
                        + msg.callback);
                
                // Make sure that during the course of dispatching the
                // identity of the thread wasn't corrupted.
                final long newIdent = Binder.clearCallingIdentity();
                if (ident != newIdent) {
                    Log.wtf("Looper", "Thread identity changed from 0x"
                            + Long.toHexString(ident) + " to 0x"
                            + Long.toHexString(newIdent) + " while dispatching to "
                            + msg.target.getClass().getName() + " "
                            + msg.callback + " what=" + msg.what);
                }
                
                msg.recycle();
            }
        }
    }

while(true)体现了消息循环中的“循环“，Looper会在循环体中调用queue.next()获取消息队列中需要处理的下一条消息。当msg != null且msg.target != null时，调用msg.target.dispatchMessage(msg);分发消息，当分发完成后，调用msg.recycle();回收消息。

msg.target是一个handler对象，表示需要处理这个消息的handler对象。Handler的void dispatchMessage(Message msg)方法如下：

Handler.java

[java] view plaincopyprint?
  1. publicvoid dispatchMessage(Message msg) { 
  2.         if (msg.callback != null) { 
  3.             handleCallback(msg); 
  4.         } else { 
  5.             if (mCallback != null) { 
  6.                 if (mCallback.handleMessage(msg)) { 
  7.                     return; 
  8.                 } 
  9.             } 
  10.             handleMessage(msg); 
  11.         } 
  12. }  
public void dispatchMessage(Message msg) {
        if (msg.callback != null) {
            handleCallback(msg);
        } else {
            if (mCallback != null) {
                if (mCallback.handleMessage(msg)) {
                    return;
                }
            }
            handleMessage(msg);
        }
}

可见，当msg.callback== null 并且mCallback == null时，这个例子是由handleMessage(msg);处理消息，上面我们说到子类覆盖这个方法可以实现消息的具体处理过程。

 

总结：从上面的分析过程可知，消息循环的核心是Looper，Looper持有消息队列MessageQueue对象，一个线程可以把Looper设为该线程的局部变量，这就相当于这个线程建立了一个对应的消息队列。Handler的作用就是封装发送消息和处理消息的过程，让其他线程只需要操作Handler就可以发消息给创建Handler的线程。由此可以知道，在上一篇《Android异步处理一：使用Thread+Handler实现非UI线程更新UI界面》中，UI线程在创建的时候就建立了消息循环(在ActivityThread的public static final void main(String[] args)方法中实现)，因此我们可以在其他线程给UI线程的handler发送消息，达到更新UI的目的。
