?????? 昨晚偷懒，这篇博客只写了一个标题，今天早晨一看，还有15的阅读量。实在是对不起那些同学.......换了是我，也会BS这样的LZ吧!sorry 啦

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

?????? 菜鸟我刚刚接触android源码的时候，当时连java语言都不太熟悉（菜鸟我一直是学C/C++），看到android某个应用的源码的时候，曾为这样的代码迷惑过。

?

[java] view plaincopyprint?

1. private?class?MainHandler?extends?Handler?{??
2. ????????@Override??
3. ????????public?void?handleMessage(Message?msg)?{??
4. ????????????switch?(msg.what)?{??
5. ????????????????case?RESTART_PREVIEW:?{??
6. ????????????????????restartPreview();??
7. ????????????????????if?(mJpegPictureCallbackTime?!=?0)?{??
8. ????????????????????????long?now?=?System.currentTimeMillis();??
9. ????????????????????????mJpegCallbackFinishTime?=?now?-?mJpegPictureCallbackTime;??
10. ????????????????????????Log.v(TAG,?"mJpegCallbackFinishTime?=?"??
11. ????????????????????????????????+?mJpegCallbackFinishTime?+?"ms");??
12. ????????????????????????mJpegPictureCallbackTime?=?0;??
13. ????????????????????}??
14. ????????????????????break;??
15. ????????????????}??
16. ??
17. ????????????????...??

private class MainHandler extends Handler {
        @Override
        public void handleMessage(Message msg) {
            switch (msg.what) {
                case RESTART_PREVIEW: {
                    restartPreview();
                    if (mJpegPictureCallbackTime != 0) {
                        long now = System.currentTimeMillis();
                        mJpegCallbackFinishTime = now - mJpegPictureCallbackTime;
                        Log.v(TAG, "mJpegCallbackFinishTime = "
                                + mJpegCallbackFinishTime + "ms");
                        mJpegPictureCallbackTime = 0;
                    }
                    break;
                }

  ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ...

??????? 在同一个文件中不就是想调用restartPreview()函数吗？为什么不直接调用就好，还要发个消息然后在这个handleMessage()中来调用呢？初学菜鸟有没有同样的困惑？还是只有LZ一人太白痴了。

???? 那么到底为什么要这么做呢。是为了异步，是为了多线程，将一些耗时的操作放到一个子线程里面去，大家应该知道如果在android的应用程序主线程，也就是UI线程里面如果执行耗时操作超过5s就会报ANR（application not respon）错误。所以，为了避免ANR，android应用程序将一些耗时操作放到一个独立的工作线程中去。

????? 那么android是如何做到这点的呢？那个新的工作线程又是如何建立的？这就是android中Looper和Handler类的功劳。下面菜鸟来分析下首先看个类图：

? ? ??

?????? 从这个图看到Handler和HandlerThread类都有一个Looper成员变量。而且，Handler和Looper都有成员变量MessageQueue，下面我们看看Looper类和Handler类的作用。

Looper：

?????? Looper类，来实现消息循环，内部有一个消息队列。看到Looper类的构造函数是private的，这样外部没法实例化Looper对象，Looper对象的构造只能通过Looper的内部接口，来看一段函数:?

[java] view plaincopyprint?

1. /**?Initialize?the?current?thread?as?a?looper.?
2. ??????*?This?gives?you?a?chance?to?create?handlers?that?then?reference?
3. ??????*?this?looper,?before?actually?starting?the?loop.?Be?sure?to?call?
4. ??????*?{@link?#loop()}?after?calling?this?method,?and?end?it?by?calling?
5. ??????*?{@link?#quit()}.?
6. ??????*/??
7. ????public?static?final?void?prepare()?{??
8. ????????if?(sThreadLocal.get()?!=?null)?{??
9. ????????????throw?new?RuntimeException("Only?one?Looper?may?be?created?per?thread");??
10. ????????}??
11. ????????sThreadLocal.set(new?Looper());??
12. ????}??
13. ??????
14. ????/**?Initialize?the?current?thread?as?a?looper,?marking?it?as?an?application‘s?main??
15. ?????*??looper.?The?main?looper?for?your?application?is?created?by?the?Android?environment,?
16. ?????*??so?you?should?never?need?to?call?this?function?yourself.?
17. ?????*?{@link?#prepare()}?
18. ?????*/??
19. ???????
20. ????public?static?final?void?prepareMainLooper()?{??
21. ????????prepare();??
22. ????????setMainLooper(myLooper());??
23. ????????if?(Process.supportsProcesses())?{??
24. ????????????myLooper().mQueue.mQuitAllowed?=?false;??
25. ????????}??
26. ????}??

/** Initialize the current thread as a looper.
      * This gives you a chance to create handlers that then reference
      * this looper, before actually starting the loop. Be sure to call
      * {@link #loop()} after calling this method, and end it by calling
      * {@link #quit()}.
      */
    public static final void prepare() {
        if (sThreadLocal.get() != null) {
            throw new RuntimeException("Only one Looper may be created per thread");
        }
        sThreadLocal.set(new Looper());
    }

    /** Initialize the current thread as a looper, marking it as an application‘s main
     *  looper. The main looper for your application is created by the Android environment,
     *  so you should never need to call this function yourself.
     * {@link #prepare()}
     */

    public static final void prepareMainLooper() {
        prepare();
        setMainLooper(myLooper());
        if (Process.supportsProcesses()) {
            myLooper().mQueue.mQuitAllowed = false;
        }
    }

??????? 其中函数prepareMainLooper()函数只在ActivityThread.java的main()函数中被调用过。这个prepareMainLooper()的作用保证每个调用线程都有一个Looper对象，这样应用程序的主线程就有一个Looper对象了，so应用程序主线程的消息循环建立了。

??????? 看看，perpare()函数中，有这样一句话?sThreadLocal.set(new Looper());其中sThreadLocal是一个ThreadLocal类型的变量。ThreadLocal表示这是一个线程的局部变量，google之看到下面这段解释。

??????? Implements a thread-local storage, that is, a variable for which each thread has its own value. All threads share the sameThreadLocal object, but each sees a different value when accessing it, and changes
made by one thread do not affect the other threads. The implementation supportsnull values.

?????? 菜鸟斗胆来翻译下，ThreadLocal实现了一种线程的局部存储，ThreadLocal代表一种线程局部变量，对于这种变量来说ThreadLocal保证每个线程都有一个独立的值(value)，所有线程都共有一个ThreadLocal对象，但是每个线程在访问这些变量的时候能得到不同的值，每个线程可以更改这些变量并且不会影响其他的线程。ThreadLocal支持NULL值。/*那位大牛有更好的翻译，分享下呗*/

?????? 其中ThreadLocal开放了两个接口：

???????????public Tget()：获取调用线程的局部变量

?????? public void set(T value) ：设置调用线程的局部变量

?????? perpare()函数的这种处理方式保证在每个调用该函数的线程都有一个独立的Looper对象。

??????

Handler：????

?????? Handler的作用是处理消息，他封装了消息的投递和对消息的处理。通过上面的图可以看到Handler类有一个Looper和MessageQueue成员变量，Handler类有4个不同的构造函数如下:

[java] view plaincopyprint?

?????

?????? 可以看到Handler类的成员变量MessageQueue mQueue都会指向Looper类的的MessageQueue，Handler为什么要这么做呢？

????? 下面看看Handler类提供那些接口：

     */
    public void handleMessage(Message msg) {
    }

??????? 其中sendMessage函数都会调用到sendMessageAtTime函数，下面看下sendMessageAtTime(Message msg, long uptimeMillis)函数的实现

?

[java] view plaincopyprint?

1. public?boolean?sendMessageAtTime(Message?msg,?long?uptimeMillis)??
2. ????{??
3. ????????boolean?sent?=?false;??

14. ????????}??
15. ????????return?sent;??
16. ????}??

public boolean sendMessageAtTime(Message msg, long uptimeMillis)
    {
        boolean sent = false;
        MessageQueue queue = mQueue;
        if (queue != null) {
? ? ? ? ? ? /*看到Message的target变量指向当前这个Handler类*/
            msg.target = this;
            sent = queue.enqueueMessage(msg, uptimeMillis);
        }
        else {
            RuntimeException e = new RuntimeException(
                this + " sendMessageAtTime() called with no mQueue");
            Log.w("Looper", e.getMessage(), e);
        }
        return sent;
    }

?????? msg.target指明了这个msg将有谁来处理，在这里msg.target=this，Handler类除了封装消息添加外还封装了消息处理的接口。

Looper和Handler的联系：

?????????? 本菜鸟不才不知道上面的分析有没有错误，有没有让很多初学者犯迷糊，下面我将分析以下Looper和Handler类的联系，希望可以把上面的知识点串联起来。

?????????? 当调用Looper类的loop()函数的时候当前线程就进入到一个消息循环中去。看看这个loop()@Looper.java函数先.

[java] view plaincopyprint?

    }

??????? 可以看到当前线程不断的从消息队列中取出消息，如果消息的target成员变量为null，就表示要退出消息循环了，否则的话就要调用这个target对象的dispatchMessage成员函数来处理这个消息，这个target对象的类型为Handler。

???????????

???????????????? 其实这个Looper和Handler类中消息传递的机制还是很复杂到，用到了Linux中Pipe的相关知识，我太菜还不能做出更深的分析，以后有时间会好好学习下，在完善下这部份的知识。

????????? 好了，这篇blog就说到这里吧。下篇blog我会试着分析下，Handler和Looper的同步问题。届时会顺便学习一下HandlerThread类。

????????????? 忘了说，如果哪位大牛发现我这篇blog有什么错误，敬请指正，免得误导了跟我一样的菜鸟

Android异步处理三：Handler+Looper+MessageQueue深入详解 - lzc的专栏 - 博客频道 - CSDN.NET

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。

原理：

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. private?static?final?ThreadLocal?sThreadLocal?=?new?ThreadLocal();??
2. public?static?final?void?prepare()?{??
3. ????????if?(sThreadLocal.get()?!=?null)?{??
4. ????????????throw?new?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. ????????????throw?new?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. public?static?final?void?loop()?{??
2. ???????Looper?me?=?myLooper();??
3. ???????MessageQueue?queue?=?me.mQueue;??
4. ?????????

38. ???????????????}??
39. ?????????????????

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. public?void?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。
