官方API对SurfaceView的介绍
SurfaceView的API介绍
Provides a dedicated drawing surface embedded inside of a view hierarchy. You can control the format of this surface and, if you like, its size; the SurfaceView takes care of placing the surface at the correct location on the screen
The surface is Z ordered so that it is behind the window holding its SurfaceView; the SurfaceView punches a hole in its window to allow its surface to be displayed. The view hierarchy will take care of correctly compositing with the Surface any siblings of the SurfaceView that would normally appear on top of it. This can be used to place overlays such as buttons on top of the Surface, though note however that it can have an impact on performance since a full alpha-blended composite will be performed each time the Surface changes.
Access to the underlying surface is provided via the SurfaceHolder interface, which can be retrieved by calling getHolder().
The Surface will be created for you while the SurfaceView's window is visible; you should implement surfaceCreated(SurfaceHolder) and surfaceDestroyed(SurfaceHolder) to discover when the Surface is created and destroyed as the window is shown and hidden.
One of the purposes of this class is to provide a surface in which a secondary thread can render in to the screen. If you are going to use it this way, you need to be aware of some threading semantics:
•All SurfaceView and SurfaceHolder.Callback methods will be called from the thread running the SurfaceView's window (typically the main thread of the application). They thus need to correctly synchronize with any state that is also touched by the drawing thread.
•You must ensure that the drawing thread only touches the underlying Surface while it is valid -- between SurfaceHolder.Callback.surfaceCreated() and SurfaceHolder.Callback.surfaceDestroyed().

接下来呢,说说自己对它的理解
1、定义
可以直接从内存或者DMA等硬件接口取得图像数据,是个非常重要的绘图容器。
它的特性是:可以在主线程之外的线程中向屏幕绘图。这样可以避免画图任务繁重的时候造成主线程阻塞,从而提高了程序的反应速度。在游戏开发中多用到SurfaceView,游戏中的背景、人物、动画等等尽量在画布canvas中画出。
2、实现
首先继承SurfaceView并实现SurfaceHolder.Callback接口
使用接口的原因:因为使用SurfaceView 有一个原则,所有的绘图工作必须得在Surface被创建之后才能开始(Surface—表面,这个概念在
需要重写的方法
整个过程:继承SurfaceView并实现SurfaceHolder.Callback接口 ----> SurfaceView.getHolder()获得SurfaceHolder对象 ---->SurfaceHolder.addCallback(callback)添加回调函数---->SurfaceHolder.lockCanvas()获得Canvas对象并锁定画布----> Canvas绘画 ---->SurfaceHolder.unlockCanvasAndPost(Canvas canvas)结束锁定画图,并提交改变,将图形显示。
3、SurfaceHolder
几个需要注意的方法:
(1)、abstract void addCallback(SurfaceHolder.Callback callback);
// 给SurfaceView当前的持有者一个回调对象。
(2)、abstract Canvas lockCanvas();
// 锁定画布,一般在锁定后就可以通过其返回的画布对象Canvas,在其上面画图等操作了。
(3)、abstract Canvas lockCanvas(Rect dirty);
// 锁定画布的某个区域进行画图等..因为画完图后,会调用下面的unlockCanvasAndPost来改变显示内容。
// 相对部分内存要求比较高的游戏来说,可以不用重画dirty外的其它区域的像素,可以提高速度。
(4)、abstract void unlockCanvasAndPost(Canvas canvas);
// 结束锁定画图,并提交改变。
