IntentService和HandlerThread
上一篇说了说android 系统的UI更新机制。核心点围绕在Looper的使用上。主线程运行起来后,初始化并运行一个静态Looper,H类(handler子类)处理各种事件。
16ms的UI update事件决定了,系统是否流畅。实际开发中有很多的需求,不能够放到主线程中来做。自然地系统给我们提供了两个东西。
1.HandlerThread
2.IntentService
其实两者关系密切,但目的只有一个就是异步任务处理。
一:IntentService是一个service子类

If multiple Intents have been sent, only * the most recent one is guaranteed to be redelivered. * * <p>If enabled is false (the default), * {@link #onStartCommand(Intent, int, int)} will return * {@link Service#START_NOT_STICKY}, and if the process dies, the Intent * dies along with it. */ public void setIntentRedelivery(boolean enabled) { mRedelivery = enabled; } @Override public void onCreate() { // TODO: It would be nice to have an option to hold a partial wakelock // during processing, and to have a static startService(Context, Intent) // method that would launch the service & hand off a wakelock. super.onCreate(); HandlerThread thread = new HandlerThread("IntentService[" + mName + "]"); thread.start(); mServiceLooper = thread.getLooper(); mServiceHandler = new ServiceHandler(mServiceLooper); } @Override public void onStart(@Nullable Intent intent, int startId) { Message msg = mServiceHandler.obtainMessage(); msg.arg1 = startId; msg.obj = intent; mServiceHandler.sendMessage(msg); } /** * You should not override this method for your IntentService.

START_REDELIVER_INTENT : START_NOT_STICKY; } @Override public void onDestroy() { mServiceLooper.quit(); } /** * Unless you provide binding for your service, you don't need to implement this * method, because the default implementation returns null. * @see android.app.Service#onBind */ @Override @Nullable public IBinder onBind(Intent intent) { return null; } /** * This method is invoked on the worker thread with a request to process. * Only one Intent is processed at a time, but the processing happens on a * worker thread that runs independently from other application logic. * So, if this code takes a long time, it will hold up other requests to * the same IntentService, but it will not hold up anything else. * When all requests have been handled, the IntentService stops itself, * so you should not call {@link #stopSelf}. * * @param intent The value passed to {@link * android.content.Context#startService(Intent)}. * This may be null if the service is being restarted after * its process has gone away; see * {@link android.app.Service#onStartCommand} * for details. */ @WorkerThread protected abstract void onHandleIntent(@Nullable Intent intent); }
看源码可以看到:
1.IntentService 是service子类。
2.注释文档说明了,IntentService 与serice 的不同。它是异步工作的。表示不影响主线程工作。
3.使用时重写onHandleIntent()方法。
4.工作原理是基于,HandlerThread。工作在一个线程当中。只有一个线程,任务由handler调度,所以是顺序执行的。
5.自己管理生命周期,自己结束 。
二:HandlerThread
源码分析
1.HandlerThread是Thread子类。就是一个线程类。
2.run方法中调用
Looper.prepare();
Looper.loop();
启动了一个Looper
@Override public void run() { mTid = Process.myTid(); Looper.prepare(); synchronized (this) { mLooper = Looper.myLooper(); notifyAll(); } Process.setThreadPriority(mPriority); onLooperPrepared(); Looper.loop(); mTid = -1; }
3.由Looper 来生成一个handler
public Handler getThreadHandler() { if (mHandler == null) { mHandler = new Handler(getLooper()); } return mHandler; }
当HandlerThread 运行起来的时候,可以通过mHandler来做相关的事务,包括UI操作。之操还是异步的,不影响主线程。
IntentService 就是利HadnlerThread来执行业务。
