Android程序入口ActivityThread和Android应用程序启动流程详解

          大家初学java时候都知道java的程序入口是从main方法进入,那么Android是基于java编写的,那Android的程序入口做了哪些操作呢?还有Android的应用程序到底是怎样启动的呢?我们一起来看一下.

首先附上ActivityThread.java的main方法:

public static void main(String[] args) {
Trace.traceBegin(Trace.TRACE_TAG_ACTIVITY_MANAGER, "ActivityThreadMain");
SamplingProfilerIntegration.start();

// CloseGuard defaults to true and can be quite spammy.  We
// disable it here, but selectively enable it later (via
// StrictMode) on debug builds, but using DropBox, not logs.
CloseGuard.setEnabled(false);

Environment.initForCurrentUser();

// Set the reporter for event logging in libcore
EventLogger.setReporter(new EventLoggingReporter());

AndroidKeyStoreProvider.install();

// Make sure TrustedCertificateStore looks in the right place for CA certificates
final File configDir = Environment.getUserConfigDirectory(UserHandle.myUserId());
TrustedCertificateStore.setDefaultUserDirectory(configDir);

Process.setArgV0("<pre-initialized>");

Looper.prepareMainLooper(); //实例化Looper并设置到ThreadLocal里面,赋值MainLooper

ActivityThread thread = new ActivityThread();  //实例化一个ActivityThread
thread.attach(false);      //主要是获取AMS接口 然后设置ApplicationThread 的接口 给AMS和应用程序通信

if (sMainThreadHandler == null) {
sMainThreadHandler = thread.getHandler();  //设置MainHandler 是一些接受生命周期的方法
}

if (false) {
Looper.myLooper().setMessageLogging(new
LogPrinter(Log.DEBUG, "ActivityThread"));
}

// End of event ActivityThreadMain.
Trace.traceEnd(Trace.TRACE_TAG_ACTIVITY_MANAGER);
Looper.loop();  //开始接收消息

throw new RuntimeException("Main thread loop unexpectedly exited");
}

首先我们看第23行:

Looper.prepareMainLooper();

做Android的都知道Looper是handler机制的一个组件

(那么这里就延伸了一个问题,子线程里面能不能创建Handler呢?答案是可以的,但是必须要创建Looper,那么就有人问了,为什么主线程里面不用创建呢?看了Android的代码以后知道了,原来Android已经默默的给创建好了,Android的组件的生命周期也都是由Handler来调用的,下面就会看到)

那么我们来看一下prepareMainLooper()都做了一些什么事情:

public static void prepareMainLooper() {
prepare(false);
synchronized (Looper.class) {
if (sMainLooper != null) {
throw new IllegalStateException("The main Looper has already been prepared.");
}
sMainLooper = myLooper();
}
}

private static void prepare(boolean quitAllowed) {
if (sThreadLocal.get() != null) {
throw new RuntimeException("Only one Looper may be created per thread");
}
sThreadLocal.set(new Looper(quitAllowed));
}

/**
* Return the Looper object associated with the current thread.  Returns
* null if the calling thread is not associated with a Looper.
*/
public static @Nullable Looper myLooper() {
return sThreadLocal.get();
}

private Looper(boolean quitAllowed) {
mQueue = new MessageQueue(quitAllowed);
mThread = Thread.currentThread();
}

好大家看进入了prepareMainLooper以后首先调用了prepare方法,在prepare方法里面判断了sThreadLocal!=null以后才往下走,这就解释了一个线程只能有一个Looper,实例化了一个Looper并设置给sThreadLocal,那么看到Looper的构造方法里面创建了MessageQueue一个消息队列和获取当前的线程Thread并赋值.
然后在prepareMainLooper下面又执行了一句代码把刚才创建的Looper赋值给sMainLooper.

(这个sMainLooper就是主线程的Looper也就是UI线程的Looper,在开发Android应用时有时也会获取它和当前线程的Looper比较,可以知道当前是不是在主线程....额...有点跑题了)

那么这段代码就结束了,我们继续往下看.

第25行实例化了ActivityThread对象:

第26行调用了AcitivityThread对象的attach方法,那么来看一下究竟做了什么:

private void attach(boolean system) {
sCurrentActivityThread = this;
mSystemThread = system;
if (!system) {
ViewRootImpl.addFirstDrawHandler(new Runnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
ensureJitEnabled();
}
});
android.ddm.DdmHandleAppName.setAppName("<pre-initialized>",
UserHandle.myUserId());
RuntimeInit.setApplicationObject(mAppThread.asBinder());
final IActivityManager mgr = ActivityManagerNative.getDefault();
try {
mgr.attachApplication(mAppThread);
} catch (RemoteException ex) {
// Ignore
}
// Watch for getting close to heap limit.
BinderInternal.addGcWatcher(new Runnable() {
@Override public void run() {
if (!mSomeActivitiesChanged) {
return;
}
Runtime runtime = Runtime.getRuntime();
long dalvikMax = runtime.maxMemory();
long dalvikUsed = runtime.totalMemory() - runtime.freeMemory();
if (dalvikUsed > ((3*dalvikMax)/4)) {
if (DEBUG_MEMORY_TRIM) Slog.d(TAG, "Dalvik max=" + (dalvikMax/1024)
+ " total=" + (runtime.totalMemory()/1024)
+ " used=" + (dalvikUsed/1024));
mSomeActivitiesChanged = false;
try {
mgr.releaseSomeActivities(mAppThread);
} catch (RemoteException e) {
}
}
}
});
} else {
// Don't set application object here -- if the system crashes,
// we can't display an alert, we just want to die die die.
android.ddm.DdmHandleAppName.setAppName("system_process",
UserHandle.myUserId());
try {
mInstrumentation = new Instrumentation();
ContextImpl context = ContextImpl.createAppContext(
this, getSystemContext().mPackageInfo);
mInitialApplication = context.mPackageInfo.makeApplication(true, null);
mInitialApplication.onCreate();
} catch (Exception e) {
throw new RuntimeException(
"Unable to instantiate Application():" + e.toString(), e);
}
}

// add dropbox logging to libcore
DropBox.setReporter(new DropBoxReporter());

ViewRootImpl.addConfigCallback(new ComponentCallbacks2() {
@Override
public void onConfigurationChanged(Configuration newConfig) {
synchronized (mResourcesManager) {
// We need to apply this change to the resources
// immediately, because upon returning the view
// hierarchy will be informed about it.
if (mResourcesManager.applyConfigurationToResourcesLocked(newConfig, null)) {
// This actually changed the resources!  Tell
// everyone about it.
if (mPendingConfiguration == null ||
mPendingConfiguration.isOtherSeqNewer(newConfig)) {
mPendingConfiguration = newConfig;

sendMessage(H.CONFIGURATION_CHANGED, newConfig);
}
}
}
}
@Override
public void onLowMemory() {
}
@Override
public void onTrimMemory(int level) {
}
});
}

调用的时候参数传递false说明不是系统调用的,那么我们就看if语句块里面的,主要就看14行和16行的代码:
 final IActivityManager mgr = ActivityManagerNative.getDefault();        

 mgr.attachApplication(mAppThread);

那么这两句代码首先Android系统中存在一个ActivityManagerService(简称AMS)(大白话就叫Activity管理服务),他是来调度Android程序里面的Activity的开启等工作.

那么ActivityManagerNative.getDefault()就是获取了这个ActivityManagerService的Binder接口(Binder:跨进程通信),然后调用了attachApplication传入了一个mAppThread.

那么这个mAppThread是什么呢?

它是ApplicationThread在全局声明并初始化,这个东西也是一个继承了Binder的类,把他传递给AMS,以后AMS就拿这个东西和应用程序进行通信.

            

然后再回到ActivityThread的代码中,设置了一个sMainThreadHandler,这个thread.getHandler()方法返回了一个名为H的继承自Handler的一个类:

private class H extends Handler {
public static final int LAUNCH_ACTIVITY         = 100;

看着是不是很亲切,有PAUSE_ACTIVITY、STOP_ACTIVITY、BIND_SERVICE等,就看到了组件的声明周期都是通过这去发起的.
最后ActivityThread第39行,调用Looper.loop()方法开始循环获取Message.

完事了? 没了?  怎么可能.... 记不记得咱们给AMS设置了一个ApplicationThread,设置了以后AMS就说了,行了可以.

当AMS看我能调用到你了,好,你可以干你的事了,那么它会通过ApplicationThread告诉你,那么来看一下ApplicationThread的类:

configChanges);
}

那么这里贴出了ApplicationThread的部分代码,这个类很多,都是一些创建组件啊,和组件的暂停,销毁的一些声明周期,通过Binder机制调用了以后,在方法里面调用sendMessage()方法,最后会走到刚才H类的handleMessage方法做处理.
那么主要看一下scheduleLaunchActivity,从AMS传递过来一堆参数,都是Activity的一些信息,把他们都封装到了ActivityClientRecord对象里,然后调用sendMessage方法最终调用到handleMessage里面.

那么看H类的handleMessage的switch语句,第一个就是LAUNCH_ACTIVITY那么看一下handleLaunchActivity把ActivityClientRecord传递进去,看一下代码:

private void handleLaunchActivity(ActivityClientRecord r, Intent customIntent) {
// If we are getting ready to gc after going to the background, well
// we are back active so skip it.
unscheduleGcIdler();
mSomeActivitiesChanged = true;

if (r.profilerInfo != null) {
mProfiler.setProfiler(r.profilerInfo);
mProfiler.startProfiling();
}

// Make sure we are running with the most recent config.
handleConfigurationChanged(null, null);

if (localLOGV) Slog.v(
TAG, "Handling launch of " + r);

// Initialize before creating the activity
WindowManagerGlobal.initialize(); //创建Activity之前初始化全局窗口管理者

Activity a = performLaunchActivity(r, customIntent);   //获得一个Activity对象

if (a != null) {
r.createdConfig = new Configuration(mConfiguration);
Bundle oldState = r.state;
handleResumeActivity(r.token, false, r.isForward,
!r.activity.mFinished && !r.startsNotResumed);

if (!r.activity.mFinished && r.startsNotResumed) {
// The activity manager actually wants this one to start out
// paused, because it needs to be visible but isn't in the
// foreground.  We accomplish this by going through the
// normal startup (because activities expect to go through
// onResume() the first time they run, before their window
// is displayed), and then pausing it.  However, in this case
// we do -not- need to do the full pause cycle (of freezing
// and such) because the activity manager assumes it can just
// retain the current state it has.
try {
r.activity.mCalled = false;
mInstrumentation.callActivityOnPause(r.activity);
// We need to keep around the original state, in case
// we need to be created again.  But we only do this
// for pre-Honeycomb apps, which always save their state
// when pausing, so we can not have them save their state
// when restarting from a paused state.  For HC and later,
// we want to (and can) let the state be saved as the normal
// part of stopping the activity.
if (r.isPreHoneycomb()) {
r.state = oldState;
}
if (!r.activity.mCalled) {
throw new SuperNotCalledException(
"Activity " + r.intent.getComponent().toShortString() +
" did not call through to super.onPause()");
}

} catch (SuperNotCalledException e) {
throw e;

} catch (Exception e) {
if (!mInstrumentation.onException(r.activity, e)) {
throw new RuntimeException(
"Unable to pause activity "
+ r.intent.getComponent().toShortString()
+ ": " + e.toString(), e);
}
}
r.paused = true;
}
} else {
// If there was an error, for any reason, tell the activity
// manager to stop us.
try {
ActivityManagerNative.getDefault()
.finishActivity(r.token, Activity.RESULT_CANCELED, null, false);
} catch (RemoteException ex) {
// Ignore
}
}
}

那么主要看一下performLaunchActivity把Activity信息传递进去获取了一个Activity对象,那么下面直接就调用resume了,那么也就是说在performLaunchActivity里面已经调用了onCreate和onStart了,看一下代码:

private Activity performLaunchActivity(ActivityClientRecord r, Intent customIntent) {
// System.out.println("##### [" + System.currentTimeMillis() + "] ActivityThread.performLaunchActivity(" + r + ")");

ActivityInfo aInfo = r.activityInfo; //Activity的信息,启动模式Theme 烂七八糟的
if (r.packageInfo == null) {
r.packageInfo = getPackageInfo(aInfo.applicationInfo, r.compatInfo,
Context.CONTEXT_INCLUDE_CODE);
}

ComponentName component = r.intent.getComponent();  //应该就是完整的包名+类名
if (component == null) {
component = r.intent.resolveActivity(
mInitialApplication.getPackageManager());
r.intent.setComponent(component);
}

if (r.activityInfo.targetActivity != null) {
component = new ComponentName(r.activityInfo.packageName,
r.activityInfo.targetActivity);
}

Activity activity = null;
try {
java.lang.ClassLoader cl = r.packageInfo.getClassLoader();
activity = mInstrumentation.newActivity(
cl, component.getClassName(), r.intent);      //ClassLoader加载Activity类
StrictMode.incrementExpectedActivityCount(activity.getClass());
r.intent.setExtrasClassLoader(cl);
r.intent.prepareToEnterProcess();
if (r.state != null) {
r.state.setClassLoader(cl);
}
} catch (Exception e) {
if (!mInstrumentation.onException(activity, e)) {
throw new RuntimeException(
"Unable to instantiate activity " + component
+ ": " + e.toString(), e);
}
}

try {
Application app = r.packageInfo.makeApplication(false, mInstrumentation);  //搞到Application

if (localLOGV) Slog.v(TAG, "Performing launch of " + r);
if (localLOGV) Slog.v(
TAG, r + ": app=" + app
+ ", appName=" + app.getPackageName()
+ ", pkg=" + r.packageInfo.getPackageName()
+ ", comp=" + r.intent.getComponent().toShortString()
+ ", dir=" + r.packageInfo.getAppDir());

if (activity != null) {
Context appContext = createBaseContextForActivity(r, activity);
CharSequence title = r.activityInfo.loadLabel(appContext.getPackageManager()); //Lable
Configuration config = new Configuration(mCompatConfiguration);
if (DEBUG_CONFIGURATION) Slog.v(TAG, "Launching activity "
+ r.activityInfo.name + " with config " + config);
activity.attach(appContext, this, getInstrumentation(), r.token,
r.ident, app, r.intent, r.activityInfo, title, r.parent,
r.embeddedID, r.lastNonConfigurationInstances, config,
r.referrer, r.voiceInteractor);

if (customIntent != null) {
activity.mIntent = customIntent;
}
r.lastNonConfigurationInstances = null;
activity.mStartedActivity = false;
int theme = r.activityInfo.getThemeResource();
if (theme != 0) {
activity.setTheme(theme);
}

activity.mCalled = false;
if (r.isPersistable()) {
mInstrumentation.callActivityOnCreate(activity, r.state, r.persistentState);
} else {
mInstrumentation.callActivityOnCreate(activity, r.state);
}
if (!activity.mCalled) {
throw new SuperNotCalledException(
"Activity " + r.intent.getComponent().toShortString() +
" did not call through to super.onCreate()");
}
r.activity = activity;
r.stopped = true;
if (!r.activity.mFinished) {
activity.performStart();
r.stopped = false;
}
if (!r.activity.mFinished) {
if (r.isPersistable()) {
if (r.state != null || r.persistentState != null) {
mInstrumentation.callActivityOnRestoreInstanceState(activity, r.state,
r.persistentState);
}
} else if (r.state != null) {
mInstrumentation.callActivityOnRestoreInstanceState(activity, r.state);
}
}
if (!r.activity.mFinished) {
activity.mCalled = false;
if (r.isPersistable()) {
mInstrumentation.callActivityOnPostCreate(activity, r.state,
r.persistentState);
} else {
mInstrumentation.callActivityOnPostCreate(activity, r.state);
}
if (!activity.mCalled) {
throw new SuperNotCalledException(
"Activity " + r.intent.getComponent().toShortString() +
" did not call through to super.onPostCreate()");
}
}
}
r.paused = true;

mActivities.put(r.token, r);

} catch (SuperNotCalledException e) {
throw e;

} catch (Exception e) {
if (!mInstrumentation.onException(activity, e)) {
throw new RuntimeException(
"Unable to start activity " + component
+ ": " + e.toString(), e);
}
}

return activity;
}

首先呢通过ActivityClientRecord参数获取到AcitivtyInfo和组件的包名+类名,然后获取了ClassLoader类加载器,接下来使用mInstrumentation.newActivity把类加载器,包名及Intent传递进去,通过反射来获取到编写的Activity类,这样就获取到了Activity.
接下来依序获取了Context,Title之类的配置通过activity调用attach方法设置了以后,获取了Theme设置给Activity通过mInstrumentation.callActivityOnCreate()间接调用了Activity的方法,然后下面又调用了onStart方法,那么这个方法结束以后出去下面又调用了onResume(),至此Activity处于Active(活动状态).

那么最后说一下Activity的启动流程.首先呢从Launch(手机桌面),它本身就是一个应用程序.

1.点击一个图标后他会通过AMS接口告诉AMS我要开启一个应用程序,

2.然后AMS就通过ApplicationThread告诉Launch进入Pause状态,

3.然后进入了pause后会告诉AMS我已经pause了,

4.接下来AMS去创建进程啊,什么Acitivity的任务栈啊供ActivityThread运行

5.,ActivityThread通过AMS的Binder接口传递给它ApplicationThread,

6.AMS一看,好没有问题,你该干啥干啥吧,有事喊我.

那么这就是一个Android应用的启动流程了,那么至于Activity的开启过程呢,就是少了创建进程和Activity任务栈之类的,其他都差不多,都是通过AMS来管理,那么这篇文章就结束,谢谢.
