Handler.post(runnable) vs Handler.sendMessage(Message msg)

    public final boolean post(@NonNull Runnable r) {
       return  sendMessageDelayed(getPostMessage(r), 0);
    }

    private static Message getPostMessage(Runnable r) {
        Message m = Message.obtain();
        // Message的callback即是runnable
        m.callback = r;
        return m;
    }

    public final boolean sendMessage(@NonNull Message msg) {
        return sendMessageDelayed(msg, 0);
    }

• Handler.post(Runnbale runnable)
它的Message中callback为runnable

• Handler.sendMessage(Message msg)
一般传递给它的message并不会指定callback,也就是说callback为null

   // 优先处理Message中自带的callback,其次就是Handler中的callback,再才是handleMessage方法
   public void dispatchMessage(@NonNull Message msg) {
        if (msg.callback != null) {
            handleCallback(msg);
        } else {
            if (mCallback != null) {
                if (mCallback.handleMessage(msg)) {
                    return;
                }
            }
            handleMessage(msg);
        }
    }

    private static void handleCallback(Message message) {
        message.callback.run();
    }

    // 设置给Handler的Callback
    public interface Callback {
        // 返回true,则处理完毕;返回false,则后面handleMessage()会继续处理
        boolean handleMessage(@NonNull Message msg);
    }

    // Handler中需要重写的方法
    public void handleMessage(@NonNull Message msg) {
    }

Handler与线程

Looper.prepareMainLooper();

ActivityThread thread = new ActivityThread();
thread.attach(false, startSeq);

Looper.loop();

Looper.prepare();
Looper.loop();

    @Override
    public void run() {
        mTid = Process.myTid();
        Looper.prepare();
        synchronized (this) {
            mLooper = Looper.myLooper();
            notifyAll();
        }
        Process.setThreadPriority(mPriority);
        onLooperPrepared();
        Looper.loop();
        mTid = -1;
    }

    public static void prepareMainLooper() {
        // 这里传递的false参数,不允许停止
        prepare(false);
        synchronized (Looper.class) {
            if (sMainLooper != null) {
                throw new IllegalStateException("The main Looper has already been prepared.");
            }
            sMainLooper = myLooper();
        }
    }

Message 与 MessageQueue

• 入队:

    boolean enqueueMessage(Message msg, long when) {
        if (msg.target == null) {
            throw new IllegalArgumentException("Message must have a target.");
        }

        synchronized (this) {
            if (msg.isInUse()) {
                throw new IllegalStateException(msg + " This message is already in use.");
            }

            if (mQuitting) {
                IllegalStateException e = new IllegalStateException(
                        msg.target + " sending message to a Handler on a dead thread");
                Log.w(TAG, e.getMessage(), e);
                msg.recycle();
                return false;
            }

            msg.markInUse();
            msg.when = when;
            Message p = mMessages;
            boolean needWake;
            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;
            }

            // We can assume mPtr != 0 because mQuitting is false.
            if (needWake) {
                nativeWake(mPtr);
            }
        }
        return true;
    }

• 出队:
这里既然是一个消息循环,那么应该是循环开始的时候会不断从队列中取出Message,这里是Looper.loop():

    public static void loop() {
        final Looper me = myLooper();
        if (me == null) {
            throw new RuntimeException("No Looper; Looper.prepare() wasn't called on this thread.");
        }
        me.mInLoop = true;
        final MessageQueue queue = me.mQueue;
        Binder.clearCallingIdentity();
        final long ident = Binder.clearCallingIdentity();

        // 循环
        for (;;) {
            // 取出消息
            Message msg = queue.next(); // might block
            if (msg == null) {
                // No message indicates that the message queue is quitting.
                return;
            }

            long origWorkSource = ThreadLocalWorkSource.setUid(msg.workSourceUid);
            try {
                // 分发消息
                msg.target.dispatchMessage(msg);

            } catch (Exception exception) {

            } finally {

            }
            msg.recycleUnchecked();
        }
    }

这里其实用的MessageQueue的next方法取出消息的:

    Message next() {

        final long ptr = mPtr;
        if (ptr == 0) {
            return null;
        }

        int pendingIdleHandlerCount = -1; // -1 only during first iteration
        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;

                // 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);
            }

            // Run the idle handlers.
            // We only ever reach this code block during the first iteration.
            for (int i = 0; i < pendingIdleHandlerCount; i++) {
                final IdleHandler idler = mPendingIdleHandlers[i];
                mPendingIdleHandlers[i] = null; // release the reference to the handler

                boolean keep = false;
                try {
                    keep = idler.queueIdle();
                } catch (Throwable t) {
                    Log.wtf(TAG, "IdleHandler threw exception", t);
                }

                if (!keep) {
                    synchronized (this) {

            // so go back and look again for a pending message without waiting.
            nextPollTimeoutMillis = 0;
        }
    }

其实也是一个根据时间查找节点的过程.

内存泄漏问题

• 内部类/匿名内部类
内部类/匿名内部类会隐私持有外部对象,容易造成内存泄漏,因此需要使用静态内部类

• Callback问题
在Activity销毁或者任务执行完之后需要removeCallback,不然也有可能会导致内存泄漏

为什么主线程不会因为Looper.loop()而阻塞?

• 主线程任务都会通过Message消息传递机制执行,也就是说最终都会在loop()中获取到并执行
Android Activity/Service的各种回调,比如onCreate()/onResume()等都是ActivityThread中H中有对应的消息类型进行处理,其实都是在消息队列中,并不会有什么其他类型的主线程任务会有别的方式去执行.
