Android编程之LayoutInflater的inflate方法详解

LayoutInflater的inflate方法，在fragment的onCreateView方法中经常用到：

[java]
view plain
copy

public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
Bundle savedInstanceState) {

LayoutInflater的inflate方法一共有四种，但我们日常用经常用到的就只有这两种：

[java]
view plain
copy

public View inflate(int resource, ViewGroup root) {
return inflate(resource, root, root != null);
}

[java]
view plain
copy

public View inflate(int resource, ViewGroup root, boolean attachToRoot) {
if (DEBUG) System.out.println("INFLATING from resource: " + resource);
XmlResourceParser parser = getContext().getResources().getLayout(resource);
try {
return inflate(parser, root, attachToRoot);
} finally {
parser.close();
}
}

所以，这里直接介绍里面调用这个方法即可：

[java]
view plain
copy

public View inflate(XmlPullParser parser, ViewGroup root, boolean attachToRoot)

在这个方法里面，上半部分为xml解析的代码，这里就不贴出来，确实没什么东西可看。直接看中间部分的代码：

[java]
view plain
copy

ViewGroup.LayoutParams params = null;

if (root != null) {
if (DEBUG) {
System.out.println("Creating params from root: " +
root);
}
// Create layout params that match root, if supplied
params = root.generateLayoutParams(attrs);
if (!attachToRoot) {
// Set the layout params for temp if we are not
// attaching. (If we are, we use addView, below)
temp.setLayoutParams(params);
}
}

params = root.generateLayoutParams(attrs);

这段的意思是：如果调用inflate方法，传入了ViewGroup root参数，则会从root中得到由layout_width和layout_height组成的LayoutParams，在attachToRoot设置为false的话，就会对我们加载的视图View设置该LayoutParams。

接着往下看：

[java]
view plain
copy

// We are supposed to attach all the views we found (int temp)
// to root. Do that now.
if (root != null && attachToRoot) {
root.addView(temp, params);
}

// Decide whether to return the root that was passed in or the
// top view found in xml.
if (root == null || !attachToRoot) {
result = temp;
}

root.addView(temp, params);

如果设置了ViewGroup root参数，且attachToRoot设置为true的话，则将我们加载的视图做为子视图添加到root视图中。

如果我们ViewGroup root设置为空的话，就直接返回我们创建的视图；如果root不为空，且attachToRoot设置为false的话，就返回上面那段：对我们加载的视图View设置该LayoutParams。
