从一个实际例子开始
通常在 Activity 的 onCreate 里,我们都会调用 setContentView 方法,看下此方法
/**
* Set the activity content from a layout resource. The resource will be
* inflated, adding all top-level views to the activity.
*
* @param layoutResID Resource ID to be inflated.
*
* @see #setContentView(android.view.View)
* @see #setContentView(android.view.View, android.view.ViewGroup.LayoutParams)
*/
public void setContentView(@LayoutRes int layoutResID) {
getWindow().setContentView(layoutResID);
initWindowDecorActionBar();
}
这里调用了 Window 的 setContentView,Window 是一个抽象类,我们知道其具体实现是 PhoneWindow
// This is the view in which the window contents are placed. It is either
// mDecor itself, or a child of mDecor where the contents go.
ViewGroup mContentParent;
@Override
public void setContentView(int layoutResID) {
...
if (mContentParent == null) {
installDecor();
} else if (!hasFeature(FEATURE_CONTENT_TRANSITIONS)) {
mContentParent.removeAllViews();
}
if (hasFeature(FEATURE_CONTENT_TRANSITIONS)) {
...
} else {
mLayoutInflater.inflate(layoutResID, mContentParent);
}
...
}
这里,首先,当判断 mContentParent 是空的时候,先初始化 DecorView 并将其包裹在 mContentParent 中,
之后用 inflate 方法把指定布局的视图加载到 mContentParent 中。
解析 inflate 方法
public View inflate(@LayoutRes int resource, @Nullable ViewGroup root) {
return inflate(resource, root, root != null);
}
这里把 root 是否为空当作第三个参数传入下个方法
public View inflate(@LayoutRes int resource, @Nullable ViewGroup root, boolean attachToRoot) {
final Resources res = getContext().getResources();
if (DEBUG) {
Log.d(TAG, "INFLATING from resource: \"" + res.getResourceName(resource) + "\" ("
+ Integer.toHexString(resource) + ")");
}
final XmlResourceParser parser = res.getLayout(resource);
try {
return inflate(parser, root, attachToRoot);
} finally {
parser.close();
}
}
这个方法先是获取了 xml 资源解析器,接着把资源解析器,root,root是否为 null 三个参数传入下个方法
/**
* Inflate a new view hierarchy from the specified XML node. Throws
* {@link InflateException} if there is an error.
* <p>
* <em><strong>Important</strong></em> For performance
* reasons, view inflation relies heavily on pre-processing of XML files
* that is done at build time. Therefore, it is not currently possible to
* use LayoutInflater with an XmlPullParser over a plain XML file at runtime.
*
* @param parser XML dom node containing the description of the view
* hierarchy.
* @param root Optional view to be the parent of the generated hierarchy (if
* <em>attachToRoot</em> is true), or else simply an object that
* provides a set of LayoutParams values for root of the returned
* hierarchy (if <em>attachToRoot</em> is false.)
* @param attachToRoot Whether the inflated hierarchy should be attached to
* the root parameter? If false, root is only used to create the
* correct subclass of LayoutParams for the root view in the XML.
* @return The root View of the inflated hierarchy. If root was supplied and
* attachToRoot is true, this is root; otherwise it is the root of
* the inflated XML file.
*/
public View inflate(XmlPullParser parser, @Nullable ViewGroup root, boolean attachToRoot) {
synchronized (mConstructorArgs) {
Trace.traceBegin(Trace.TRACE_TAG_VIEW, "inflate");
final Context inflaterContext = mContext;
final AttributeSet attrs = Xml.asAttributeSet(parser);
Context lastContext = (Context) mConstructorArgs[0];
//Context 对象
mConstructorArgs[0] = inflaterContext;
//存储父视图
View result = root;
try {
int type;
//找到 root 元素
while ((type = parser.next()) != XmlPullParser.START_TAG &&
type != XmlPullParser.END_DOCUMENT) {
}
...
final String name = parser.getName();
...
//解析 merge 标签
if (TAG_MERGE.equals(name)) {
...
rInflate(parser, root, inflaterContext, attrs, false);
} else {
//不是 merge 标签就解析布局中的视图,name 是要解析视图的类名
final View temp = createViewFromTag(root, name, inflaterContext, attrs);
ViewGroup.LayoutParams params = null;
if (root != null) {
...
//生成布局参数
params = root.generateLayoutParams(attrs);
//如果 attachRoot 是 false,就给 temp 设置布局参数
if (!attachToRoot) {
temp.setLayoutParams(params);
}
}
...
//解析 temp 视图下所有子 View
rInflateChildren(parser, temp, attrs, true);
...
//如果 root 不为空且 attachToRoot 为 true,就把 temp 添加到父视图
if (root != null && attachToRoot) {
root.addView(temp, params);
}
//如果 root 为空或 attachToRoot 为 false,就返回 temp
if (root == null || !attachToRoot) {
result = temp;
}
}
} catch (XmlPullParserException e) {
...
} finally {
...
}
return result;
}
}
此方法是 inflate 的终极实现,主要进行了如下几步工作:
- 解析 xml 根标签。
- 如果根标签是 merge 就调用 rInflate 解析,其会把 merge 标签下所有子 View 添加到根标签下。
- 如果根标签是普通元素就调用 createViewFromTag 对该元素进行解析。
- 调用 rInflate 解析 temp 根元素下所有子 View,且将这些 View 添加到 temp下。
- 返回解析到的根视图。
探索 createViewFromTag 方法
我们先着手看 createViewFromTag 方法
private View createViewFromTag(View parent, String name, Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
return createViewFromTag(parent, name, context, attrs, false);
}
传入了第五个参数到同名方法
/**
* Creates a view from a tag name using the supplied attribute set.
* <p>
* <strong>Note:</strong> Default visibility so the BridgeInflater can
* override it.
*
* @param parent the parent view, used to inflate layout params
* @param name the name of the XML tag used to define the view
* @param context the inflation context for the view, typically the
* {@code parent} or base layout inflater context
* @param attrs the attribute set for the XML tag used to define the view
* @param ignoreThemeAttr {@code true} to ignore the {@code android:theme}
* attribute (if set) for the view being inflated,
* {@code false} otherwise
*/
View createViewFromTag(View parent, String name, Context context, AttributeSet attrs,
boolean ignoreThemeAttr) {
...
if (name.equals(TAG_1995)) {
// Let's party like it's 1995!
return new BlinkLayout(context, attrs);
}
try {
View view;
...
if (view == null) {
...
try {
//内置 View 控件的解析
if (-1 == name.indexOf('.')) {
view = onCreateView(parent, name, attrs);
} else {
//自定义控件的解析
view = createView(name, null, attrs);
}
} finally {
...
}
}
return view;
} catch (InflateException e) {
...
}
}
这段程序中有段判断,当控件的名字不.时说明是内置控件,含.时说明是自定义控件。
那么 onCreateView 方法是在何处调用的呢?我们等下再去考虑。
到此为止,我们完成了解析单个 View 的过程,而整个窗口是一棵视图树,最终完成的方法在 rInflate
深入 rInflate
/**
* Recursive method used to descend down the xml hierarchy and instantiate
* views, instantiate their children, and then call onFinishInflate().
* <p>
* <strong>Note:</strong> Default visibility so the BridgeInflater can
* override it.
*/
void rInflate(XmlPullParser parser, View parent, Context context,
AttributeSet attrs, boolean finishInflate) throws XmlPullParserException, IOException {
//获取树的深度,深度优先遍历
final int depth = parser.getDepth();
int type;
boolean pendingRequestFocus = false;
//各个元素逐一解析
while (((type = parser.next()) != XmlPullParser.END_TAG ||
parser.getDepth() > depth) && type != XmlPullParser.END_DOCUMENT) {
if (type != XmlPullParser.START_TAG) {
continue;
}
final String name = parser.getName();
if (TAG_REQUEST_FOCUS.equals(name)) {
pendingRequestFocus = true;
consumeChildElements(parser);
} else if (TAG_TAG.equals(name)) {
parseViewTag(parser, parent, attrs);
} else if (TAG_INCLUDE.equals(name)) {
//解析 include 标签
if (parser.getDepth() == 0) {
throw new InflateException("<include /> cannot be the root element");
}
parseInclude(parser, context, parent, attrs);
} else if (TAG_MERGE.equals(name)) {
//解析 merge 标签,抛出异常,因为 merge 必须是根视图
throw new InflateException("<merge /> must be the root element");
} else {
//根据元素名解析
final View view = createViewFromTag(parent, name, context, attrs);
final ViewGroup viewGroup = (ViewGroup) parent;
final ViewGroup.LayoutParams params = viewGroup.generateLayoutParams(attrs);
//递归调用解析
rInflateChildren(parser, view, attrs, true);
//将解析到的 View 添加到 parent 中
viewGroup.addView(view, params);
}
}
if (pendingRequestFocus) {
parent.restoreDefaultFocus();
}
if (finishInflate) {
parent.onFinishInflate();
}
}
此方法通过深度优先遍历构造视图树,每解析到一个 View 都会递归,直到路径下的最后一个元素,
之后回溯将每个 View 添加到 parent 中。此方法解析完以后,整个视图树构造完毕,调用 onResume 以后,
通过 setContentView 设置的内容会出现在视野里。
找到 onCreateView 方法真正实现
LayoutInflater 是个抽象类
public abstract class LayoutInflater {...}
没关系,既然是抽象类,那就总能找到它的实现类,
根据我的上一篇文章 getSystemService 追根溯源(基于最新源码)中的分析,
最终获取 LayoutInflater,加载 SystemServiceRegistry 类时会通过如下代码把 LayoutInflater 注入容器
static{
registerService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE, LayoutInflater.class,
new CachedServiceFetcher<LayoutInflater>() {
@Override
public LayoutInflater createService(ContextImpl ctx) {
return new PhoneLayoutInflater(ctx.getOuterContext());
}});
}
这里我们发现真正 LayoutInflater 的实现就是 PhoneLayoutInflater,看下这个类
public class PhoneLayoutInflater extends LayoutInflater {
private static final String[] sClassPrefixList = {
"android.widget.",
"android.webkit.",
"android.app."
};
...
@Override protected View onCreateView(String name, AttributeSet attrs) throws ClassNotFoundException {
for (String prefix : sClassPrefixList) {
try {
View view = createView(name, prefix, attrs);
if (view != null) {
return view;
}
} catch (ClassNotFoundException e) {
...
}
}
return super.onCreateView(name, attrs);
}
...
}
其中主要重写了 onCreateView 方法,
此方法就是在传递进来的 view 的名字前面加一个前缀用来得到该内置类的完整路径,然后创建相应对象。
再看一下 LayoutInflater 中 onCreateView 的实现
/**
* This routine is responsible for creating the correct subclass of View
* given the xml element name. Override it to handle custom view objects. If
* you override this in your subclass be sure to call through to
* super.onCreateView(name) for names you do not recognize.
*
* @param name The fully qualified class name of the View to be create.
* @param attrs An AttributeSet of attributes to apply to the View.
*
* @return View The View created.
*/
protected View onCreateView(String name, AttributeSet attrs)
throws ClassNotFoundException {
return createView(name, "android.view.", attrs);
}
结合上文的分析,我们发现自定义控件和内置控件最终都是调用 createView,研究这个方法很有必要
分析 createView 方法
/**
*根据完整的类名通过反射机制构造 View 对象
*/
public final View createView(String name, String prefix, AttributeSet attrs)
throws ClassNotFoundException, InflateException {
//从缓存中拿出构造函数
Constructor<? extends View> constructor = sConstructorMap.get(name);
...
Class<? extends View> clazz = null;
try {
...
//没有构造函数
if (constructor == null) {
//prefix 不为空就构造完整 View 路径并加载此类
clazz = mContext.getClassLoader().loadClass(
prefix != null ? (prefix + name) : name).asSubclass(View.class);
...
//从 Class 对象中获取构造函数
constructor = clazz.getConstructor(mConstructorSignature);
constructor.setAccessible(true);
//将构造函数存入缓存中
sConstructorMap.put(name, constructor);
} else {
...
}
Object lastContext = mConstructorArgs[0];
...
Object[] args = mConstructorArgs;
args[1] = attrs;
//通过反射构造 View
final View view = constructor.newInstance(args);
if (view instanceof ViewStub) {
final ViewStub viewStub = (ViewStub) view;
viewStub.setLayoutInflater(cloneInContext((Context) args[0]));
}
...
return view;
} catch (NoSuchMethodException e) {
...
} finally {
...
}
}
此方法主要步骤就是获取此类的构造函数并且缓存起来,然后通过构造函数创建此 View 的对象,最后返回。
这就是解析整个 View 的过程。
