Android系统中的两大机制:Binder IPC机制和Handler消息机制;前者用于进程间通信,后者用于同一个进程中的线程间通信。作为一名Android developer,你肯定知道Handler消息处理机制的原理,就不做描述了。这里抛出两个问题:(第一个问题我是在知乎上看到的,引出的第二个问题,然后又看了一遍Handler消息处理机制的源码,然后就有了这篇文章!)
1、为什么主线程不会因为Looper.loop()里的死循环卡死?
2、message延时处理如何实现的?
如果你已经知道了答案,那你就不用浪费时间往下看了。
第一个问题:
我们知道源码Looper类中的loop()方法写了一个死循环:
/**
* Run the message queue in this thread. Be sure to call
* {@link #quit()} to end the loop.
*/
public static void loop() {
....//省略部分源码
for (;;) {
Message msg = queue.next(); // might block
if (msg == null) {
// No message indicates that the message queue is quitting.
return;
}
// This must be in a local variable, in case a UI event sets the logger
Printer logging = me.mLogging;
if (logging != null) {
logging.println(">>>>> Dispatching to " + msg.target + " " +
msg.callback + ": " + msg.what);
}
msg.target.dispatchMessage(msg);
....//省略部分源码
msg.recycleUnchecked();
}
}
如何证明调用loop()方法后线程会阻塞呢?请看
public class MyThread extends Thread {
private static final String TAG="MyThread";
private Handler mHandler=new Handler(){
@Override
public void handleMessage(Message msg) {
super.handleMessage(msg);
Log.e(TAG, "handleMessage:-->"+msg.what);
}
};
@Override
public void run() {
super.run();
Looper.prepare();
new MyThread2().start();
Looper.loop();
Log.e(TAG, "是否会执行?");
}
}
执行以上代码,你会发现Log.e(TAG, "是否会执行?")是不会执行的。既然如此,我们的主线程也是这么干的啊,难道是我们写错了?这就引出了第一个问题。
1、当looper去messageQueue中取消息时调用的是queue.next(); 当没有消息的时候,就会阻塞在nativePollOnce(ptr, nextPollTimeoutMillis);这个方法中,具体的就涉及到native方法的执行的,说是会让线程休眠让出cpu(抱歉没去深入native层)。
2、loop()方法会阻塞,那么其他的操作是怎么做到的?大牛说了会创建新的线程,然后发送消息到ActivityThread类中Handler去处理。//这个,呃,todo...
再来看第二个问题:
handler中发送消息的几个方法
mHandler.sendEmptyMessageAtTime(1, 0);
mHandler.sendEmptyMessageAtTime(2, SystemClock.uptimeMillis() + 2000);
mHandler.sendEmptyMessage(3);
mHandler.sendEmptyMessageDelayed(4, 3000);
这几个方法其实最后都会调用handler中的enqueueMessage方法
private boolean enqueueMessage(MessageQueue queue, Message msg, long uptimeMillis) {
msg.target = this;
if (mAsynchronous) {
msg.setAsynchronous(true);
}
return queue.enqueueMessage(msg, uptimeMillis);
}
再看messageQueue中的enqueueMessage方法:
boolean enqueueMessage(Message msg, long when) {
....//省略部分源码
synchronized (this) {
....//省略部分源码
msg.markInUse();
msg.when = when;
Message p = mMessages;
boolean needWake;
//下面这段关键代码是给message进行排序
if (p == null || when == 0 || when < p.when) {
// New head, wake up the event queue if blocked.
msg.next = p;
mMessages = msg;
needWake = mBlocked;
} else {
needWake = mBlocked && p.target == null && msg.isAsynchronous();
Message prev;
for (;;) {
prev = p;
p = p.next;
if (p == null || when < p.when) {
break;
}
if (needWake && p.isAsynchronous()) {
needWake = false;
}
}
msg.next = p; // invariant: p == prev.next
prev.next = msg;
}
....//省略部分源码
}
return true;
}
这个方法会将handler发送的消息加入到消息队列,这个消息队列是的先后顺序是按照msg.when来排列的。通过next()来取出的消息,当消息还没到执行的时间时,那么这个方法就会阻塞。具体看如下源码:
Message next() {
....//省略部分源码
int nextPollTimeoutMillis = 0;
for (;;) {
if (nextPollTimeoutMillis != 0) {
Binder.flushPendingCommands();
}
nativePollOnce(ptr, nextPollTimeoutMillis);
synchronized (this) {
// Try to retrieve the next message. Return if found.
final long now = SystemClock.uptimeMillis();
Message prevMsg = null;
Message msg = mMessages;
if (msg != null && msg.target == null) {
// Stalled by a barrier. Find the next asynchronous message in the queue.
do {
prevMsg = msg;
msg = msg.next;
} while (msg != null && !msg.isAsynchronous());
}
if (msg != null) {
if (now < msg.when) {
// Next message is not ready. Set a timeout to wake up when it is ready.
nextPollTimeoutMillis = (int) Math.min(msg.when - now, Integer.MAX_VALUE);
} else {
// Got a message.
mBlocked = false;
if (prevMsg != null) {
prevMsg.next = msg.next;
} else {
mMessages = msg.next;
}
msg.next = null;
if (DEBUG) Log.v(TAG, "Returning message: " + msg);
msg.markInUse();
return msg;
}
} else {
// No more messages.
nextPollTimeoutMillis = -1;
}
// Process the quit message now that all pending messages have been handled.
if (mQuitting) {
dispose();
return null;
}
// If first time idle, then get the number of idlers to run.
// Idle handles only run if the queue is empty or if the first message
// in the queue (possibly a barrier) is due to be handled in the future.
if (pendingIdleHandlerCount < 0
&& (mMessages == null || now < mMessages.when)) {
pendingIdleHandlerCount = mIdleHandlers.size();
}
if (pendingIdleHandlerCount <= 0) {
// No idle handlers to run. Loop and wait some more.
mBlocked = true;
continue;
}
if (mPendingIdleHandlers == null) {
mPendingIdleHandlers = new IdleHandler[Math.max(pendingIdleHandlerCount, 4)];
}
mPendingIdleHandlers = mIdleHandlers.toArray(mPendingIdleHandlers);
}
....//省略部分源码
nextPollTimeoutMillis = 0;
}
}
总结
1、主线程不会因为loop()死循环而卡死,使用当没有消息的时,线程会进入休眠让出cpu,具体实现是nativePollOnce(ptr, nextPollTimeoutMillis)方法。
2、message的延时处理是通过判断handler发送消息时设定的执行时间,未到执行时间则和上述情况一样进入休眠让出cpu。
