1.活用Android线程间通信的Message机制
1.1.Message
代码在frameworks/base/core/java/android/Os/Message.java中。
Message.obtain函数：有多个obtain函数，主要功能一样，只是参数不一样。作用是从Message Pool中取出一个Message，如果Message Pool中已经没有Message可取则新建一个Message返回，同时用对应的参数给得到的Message对象赋值。
Message Pool：大小为10个；通过Message.mPool->（Message并且Message.next）-> （Message并且Message.next）-> （Message并且Message.next）...构造一个Message Pool。Message Pool的第一个元素直接new出来，然后把Message.mPool（static类的static变量）指向它。其他的元素都是使用完的 Message通过Message的recycle函数清理后放到Message Pool（通过Message Pool最后一个Message的next指向需要回收的Message的方式实现）。下图为Message Pool的结构：
1.2.MessageQueue
MessageQueue里面有一个收到的Message的对列：
MessageQueue.mMessages(static变量)->( Message并且Message.next)-> ( Message并且Message.next)->...，下图为接收消息的消息队列：
上层代码通过Handler的sendMessage等函数放入一个message到MessageQueue里面时最终会调用 MessageQueue的 enqueueMessage函数。enqueueMessage根据上面的接收的Message的队列的构造把接收到的Message放入队列中。
MessageQueue的removeMessages函数根据上面的接收的Message的队列的构造把接收到的Message从队列中删 除，并且调用对应Message对象的recycle函数把不用的Message放入Message Pool中。
1.3.Looper
Looper对象的创建是通过prepare函数，而且每一个Looper对象会和一个线程关联
Java代码
1. public static final void prepare() {
2. if (sThreadLocal.get() != null) {
3. throw new RuntimeException("Only one Looper may be created per thread");
4. }
5. sThreadLocal.set(new Looper());
6. }
public static final void prepare() {
if (sThreadLocal.get() != null) {
throw new RuntimeException("Only one Looper may be created per thread");
}
sThreadLocal.set(new Looper());
}
Looper对象创建时会创建一个MessageQueue，主线程默认会创建一个Looper从而有MessageQueue，其他线程默认是 没有 MessageQueue的不能接收Message，如果需要接收Message则需要通过prepare函数创建一个MessageQueue。具体操 作请见示例代码。
Java代码
1. private Looper() {
2. mQueue = new MessageQueue();
3. mRun = true;
4. mThread = Thread.currentThread();
5. }
private Looper() {
mQueue = new MessageQueue();
mRun = true;
mThread = Thread.currentThread();
}
prepareMainLooper函数只给主线程调用（系统处理，程序员不用处理），它会调用prepare建立Looper对象和 MessageQueue。
Java代码
1. public static final void prepareMainLooper() {
2. prepare();
3. setMainLooper(myLooper());
4. if (Process.supportsProcesses()) {
5. myLooper().mQueue.mQuitAllowed = false;
6. }
7. }
public static final void prepareMainLooper() {
prepare();
setMainLooper(myLooper());
if (Process.supportsProcesses()) {
myLooper().mQueue.mQuitAllowed = false;
}
}
Loop函数从MessageQueue中从前往后取出Message，然后通过Handler的dispatchMessage函数进行消息的 处理（可见消息的处理是Handler负责的），消息处理完了以后通过Message对象的recycle函数放到Message Pool中，以便下次使用，通过Pool的处理提供了一定的内存管理从而加速消息对象的获取。至于需要定时处理的消息如何做到定时处理，请见 MessageQueue的next函数，它在取Message来进行处理时通过判断MessageQueue里面的Message是否符合时间要求来决 定是否需要把Message取出来做处理，通过这种方式做到消息的定时处理。
Java代码
1. public static final void loop() {
2. Looper me = myLooper();
3. MessageQueue queue = me.mQueue;
4. while (true) {
5. Message msg = queue.next(); // might block
6. //if (!me.mRun) {
7. // break;
8. //}
9. if (msg != null) {
10. if (msg.target == null) {
11. // No target is a magic identifier for the quit message
12. return;
13. }
14.
15. if (me.mLogging!= null)
16. me.mLogging.println(">>>>> Dispatching to " + msg.target + " "+ msg.callback + ": " + msg.what);
17. msg.target.dispatchMessage(msg);
18. if (me.mLogging!= null)
19. me.mLogging.println("<<<<< Finished to" + msg.target + " "+ msg.callback);
20. msg.recycle();
21. }
22. }
23. }
public static final void loop() {
Looper me = myLooper();
MessageQueue queue = me.mQueue;
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);
msg.recycle();
}
}
}
1.4.Handler
Handler的构造函数表示Handler会有成员变量指向Looper和MessageQueue，后面我们会看到没什么需要这些引用；至于 callback是实现了Callback接口的对象，后面会看到这个对象的作用。
Java代码
1. public Handler(Looper looper, Callback callback) {
2. mLooper = looper;
3. mQueue = looper.mQueue;
4. mCallback = callback;
5. }
6.
7. public interface Callback {
8. public boolean handleMessage(Message msg);
9. }
public Handler(Looper looper, Callback callback) {
mLooper = looper;
mQueue = looper.mQueue;
mCallback = callback;
}
public interface Callback {
public boolean handleMessage(Message msg);
}
获取消息：直接通过Message的obtain方法获取一个Message对象。
Java代码
1. public final Message obtainMessage(int what, int arg1, int arg2, Object obj){
2. return Message.obtain(this, what, arg1, arg2, obj);
3. }
public final Message obtainMessage(int what, int arg1, int arg2, Object obj){
return Message.obtain(this, what, arg1, arg2, obj);
}
发送消息：通过MessageQueue的enqueueMessage把Message对象放到MessageQueue的接收消息队列中
Java代码
1. public boolean sendMessageAtTime(Message msg, long uptimeMillis){
2. boolean sent = false;
3. MessageQueue queue = mQueue;
4. if (queue != null) {
5. msg.target = this;
6. sent = queue.enqueueMessage(msg, uptimeMillis);
7. } else {
8. RuntimeException e = new RuntimeException(this + " sendMessageAtTime() called with no mQueue");
9. Log.w("Looper", e.getMessage(), e);
10. }
11. return sent;
12. }
public boolean sendMessageAtTime(Message msg, long uptimeMillis){
boolean sent = false;
MessageQueue queue = mQueue;
if (queue != null) {
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;
}
线程如何处理MessageQueue中接收的消息：在Looper的loop函数中循环取出MessageQueue的接收消息队列中的消息， 然后调用 Hander的dispatchMessage函数对消息进行处理，至于如何处理（相应消息）则由用户指定（三个方法，优先级从高到低：Message里 面的Callback，一个实现了Runnable接口的对象，其中run函数做处理工作；Handler里面的mCallback指向的一个实现了 Callback接口的对象，里面的handleMessage进行处理；处理消息Handler对象对应的类继承并实现了其中 handleMessage函数，通过这个实现的handleMessage函数处理消息）。
Java代码
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);
}
}
Runnable说明：Runnable只是一个接口，实现了这个接口的类对应的对象也只是个普通的对象，并不是一个Java中的Thread。 Thread类经常使用Runnable，很多人有误解，所以这里澄清一下。
从上可知以下关系图：
其中清理Message是Looper里面的loop函数指把处理过的Message放到Message的Pool里面去，如果里面已经超过最大 值10个，则丢弃这个Message对象。
调用Handler是指Looper里面的loop函数从MessageQueue的接收消息队列里面取出消息，然后根据消息指向的 Handler对象调用其对应的处理方法。

说明（代码详细解释请见后文）：
使用Looper.myLooper静态方法可以取得当前线程的Looper对象。
使用mHandler = new EevntHandler(Looper.myLooper()); 可建立用来处理当前线程的Handler对象；其中，EevntHandler是Handler的子类。
使用mHandler = new EevntHandler(Looper.getMainLooper()); 可建立用来处理main线程的Handler对象；其中，EevntHandler是Handler的子类。
1.5.1.主线程给自己发送消息示例
主线程发送消息：
在onClick的case 101中创建一个继承自Handler的EventHandler对象，然后获取一个消息，然后通过EventHandler对象调用 sendMessage把消息发送到主线程的MessageQueue中。主线程由系统创建，系统会给它建立一个Looper对象和 MessageQueue，所以可以接收消息。这里只要根据主线程的Looper对象初始化EventHandler对象，就可以通过 EventHandler对象发送消息到主线程的消息队列中。
主线程处理消息：
这里是通过EventHandler的handleMessage函数处理的，其中收到的Message对象中what值为一的消息就是发送给它 的，然后把消息里面附带的字符串在TextView上显示出来。
1.5.2.其他线程给主线程发送消息示例
其他线程发送消息（这里是说不使用Runnable作为callback的消息）：
首先 postRunnable设为false，表示不通过Runnable方式进行消息相关的操作。然后启动线程noLooerThread，然后以主线程的 Looper对象为参数建立EventHandler的对象mNoLooperThreadHandler，然后获取一个Message并把一个字符串赋 值给它的一个成员obj，然后通过mNoLooperThreadHandler把消息发送到主线程的MessageQueue中。
主线程处理消息：
这里是通过EventHandler的handleMessage函数处理的，其中收到的Message对象中what值为二的消息就是上面发送 给它的，然后把消息里面附带的字符串在TextView上显示出来。
1.5.3.其他线程给自己发送消息示例
其他线程发送消息：
其他非主线程建立后没有自己的Looper对象，所以也没有MessageQueue，需要给非主线程发送消息时需要建立 MessageQueue以便接收消息。下面说明如何给自己建立MessageQueue和Looper对象。从OwnLooperThread的run 函数中可以看见有一个 Looper.prepare()调用，这个就是用来建立非主线程的MessageQueue和Looper对象的。
所以这里的发送消息过程是建立线程mOwnLooperThread，然后线程建立自己的Looper和MessageQueue对象，然后根据 上面建立的Looper对象建立对应的EventHandler对象mOwnLooperThreadHandler，然后由 mOwnLooperThreadHandler建立消息并且发送到自己的MessageQueue里面。
其他线程处理接收的消息：
线程要接收消息需要在run函数中调用Looper.loop()，然后loop函数会从MessageQueue中取出消息交给对应的 Handler对象 mOwnLooperThreadHandler处理，在mOwnLooperThreadHandler的handleMessage函数中会把 Message对象中what值为三的消息（上面发送的消息）在Log中打印出来，可以通过Logcat工具查看log。
1.5.4.其他线程以Runnable为消息参数给主线程发送消息示例
其他线程发送消息（这里是说使用Runnable作为callback的消息）：
首先 postRunnable设为true，表示通过Runnable方式进行消息相关的操作。然后启动线程noLooerThread，然后以主线程的 Looper对象为参数建立EventHandler的对象mNoLooperThreadHandler，然后获取一个Message并把一个字符串赋 值给它的一个成员obj，然后通过mNoLooperThreadHandler把消息发送到主线程的MessageQueue中。
主线程处理消息：
主线程收到上面发送的Message后直接运行上面Runnable对象中的run函数进行相应的操作。run函数通过Log打印一个字符串，可 以通过Logcat工具查看log。
1.5.5.主线程给其他线程发送消息示例
主线程发送消息：
这里首先要求线程receiveMessageThread运行（在onCreate函数中完成），并且准备好自己的Looper和 MessageQueue（这个通过ReceiveMessageThread中的run函数中的Looper.prepare()调用完成），然后根据 建立的Looper对象初始化Handler对象mOtherThreadHandler。然后在onClick的case 105中由mOtherThreadHandler建立一个消息（消息中有一个字符串对象）并且发送到线程receiveMessageThread中的 MessageQueue中。
其他线程处理接收的消息：
线程要接收消息需要在run函数中调用Looper.loop()，然后loop函数会从MessageQueue中取出消息交给对应的 Handler对象mOtherThreadHandler处理，在mOtherThreadHandler的handleMessage函数中会把 Message对象中的字符串对象在Log中打印出来，可以通过Logcat工具查看log。

来自easyandroid论坛，原文：http://www.easyandroid.com/bbs /viewthread.php?tid=33
1.活用Android线程间通信的Message机制
1.1.Message
代码在frameworks/base/core/java/android/Os/Message.java中。
Message.obtain函数：有多个obtain函数，主要功能一样，只是参数不一样。作用是从Message Pool中取出一个Message，如果Message Pool中已经没有Message可取则新建一个Message返回，同时用对应的参数给得到的Message对象赋值。
Message Pool：大小为10个；通过Message.mPool->（Message并且Message.next）-> （Message并且Message.next）-> （Message并且Message.next）...构造一个Message Pool。Message Pool的第一个元素直接new出来，然后把Message.mPool（static类的static变量）指向它。其他的元素都是使用完的 Message通过Message的recycle函数清理后放到Message Pool（通过Message Pool最后一个Message的next指向需要回收的Message的方式实现）。下图为Message Pool的结构：
1.2.MessageQueue
MessageQueue里面有一个收到的Message的对列：
MessageQueue.mMessages(static变量)->( Message并且Message.next)-> ( Message并且Message.next)->...，下图为接收消息的消息队列：
上层代码通过Handler的sendMessage等函数放入一个message到MessageQueue里面时最终会调用 MessageQueue的 enqueueMessage函数。enqueueMessage根据上面的接收的Message的队列的构造把接收到的Message放入队列中。
MessageQueue的removeMessages函数根据上面的接收的Message的队列的构造把接收到的Message从队列中删 除，并且调用对应Message对象的recycle函数把不用的Message放入Message Pool中。
1.3.Looper
Looper对象的创建是通过prepare函数，而且每一个Looper对象会和一个线程关联
Java代码
1. public static final void prepare() {
2. if (sThreadLocal.get() != null) {
3. throw new RuntimeException("Only one Looper may be created per thread");
4. }
5. sThreadLocal.set(new Looper());
6. }
public static final void prepare() {
if (sThreadLocal.get() != null) {
throw new RuntimeException("Only one Looper may be created per thread");
}
sThreadLocal.set(new Looper());
}
Looper对象创建时会创建一个MessageQueue，主线程默认会创建一个Looper从而有MessageQueue，其他线程默认是 没有 MessageQueue的不能接收Message，如果需要接收Message则需要通过prepare函数创建一个MessageQueue。具体操 作请见示例代码。
Java代码
1. private Looper() {
2. mQueue = new MessageQueue();
3. mRun = true;
4. mThread = Thread.currentThread();
5. }
private Looper() {
mQueue = new MessageQueue();
mRun = true;
mThread = Thread.currentThread();
}
prepareMainLooper函数只给主线程调用（系统处理，程序员不用处理），它会调用prepare建立Looper对象和 MessageQueue。
Java代码
1. public static final void prepareMainLooper() {
2. prepare();
3. setMainLooper(myLooper());
4. if (Process.supportsProcesses()) {
5. myLooper().mQueue.mQuitAllowed = false;
6. }
7. }
public static final void prepareMainLooper() {
prepare();
setMainLooper(myLooper());
if (Process.supportsProcesses()) {
myLooper().mQueue.mQuitAllowed = false;
}
}
Loop函数从MessageQueue中从前往后取出Message，然后通过Handler的dispatchMessage函数进行消息的 处理（可见消息的处理是Handler负责的），消息处理完了以后通过Message对象的recycle函数放到Message Pool中，以便下次使用，通过Pool的处理提供了一定的内存管理从而加速消息对象的获取。至于需要定时处理的消息如何做到定时处理，请见 MessageQueue的next函数，它在取Message来进行处理时通过判断MessageQueue里面的Message是否符合时间要求来决 定是否需要把Message取出来做处理，通过这种方式做到消息的定时处理。
Java代码
1. public static final void loop() {
2. Looper me = myLooper();
3. MessageQueue queue = me.mQueue;
4. while (true) {
5. Message msg = queue.next(); // might block
6. //if (!me.mRun) {
7. // break;
8. //}
9. if (msg != null) {
10. if (msg.target == null) {
11. // No target is a magic identifier for the quit message
12. return;
13. }
14.
15. if (me.mLogging!= null)
16. me.mLogging.println(">>>>> Dispatching to " + msg.target + " "+ msg.callback + ": " + msg.what);
17. msg.target.dispatchMessage(msg);
18. if (me.mLogging!= null)
19. me.mLogging.println("<<<<< Finished to" + msg.target + " "+ msg.callback);
20. msg.recycle();
21. }
22. }
23. }
public static final void loop() {
Looper me = myLooper();
MessageQueue queue = me.mQueue;
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);
msg.recycle();
}
}
}
1.4.Handler
Handler的构造函数表示Handler会有成员变量指向Looper和MessageQueue，后面我们会看到没什么需要这些引用；至于 callback是实现了Callback接口的对象，后面会看到这个对象的作用。
Java代码
1. public Handler(Looper looper, Callback callback) {
2. mLooper = looper;
3. mQueue = looper.mQueue;
4. mCallback = callback;
5. }
6.
7. public interface Callback {
8. public boolean handleMessage(Message msg);
9. }
public Handler(Looper looper, Callback callback) {
mLooper = looper;
mQueue = looper.mQueue;
mCallback = callback;
}
public interface Callback {
public boolean handleMessage(Message msg);
}
获取消息：直接通过Message的obtain方法获取一个Message对象。
Java代码
1. public final Message obtainMessage(int what, int arg1, int arg2, Object obj){
2. return Message.obtain(this, what, arg1, arg2, obj);
3. }
public final Message obtainMessage(int what, int arg1, int arg2, Object obj){
return Message.obtain(this, what, arg1, arg2, obj);
}
发送消息：通过MessageQueue的enqueueMessage把Message对象放到MessageQueue的接收消息队列中
Java代码
1. public boolean sendMessageAtTime(Message msg, long uptimeMillis){
2. boolean sent = false;
3. MessageQueue queue = mQueue;
4. if (queue != null) {
5. msg.target = this;
6. sent = queue.enqueueMessage(msg, uptimeMillis);
7. } else {
8. RuntimeException e = new RuntimeException(this + " sendMessageAtTime() called with no mQueue");
9. Log.w("Looper", e.getMessage(), e);
10. }
11. return sent;
12. }
public boolean sendMessageAtTime(Message msg, long uptimeMillis){
boolean sent = false;
MessageQueue queue = mQueue;
if (queue != null) {
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;
}
线程如何处理MessageQueue中接收的消息：在Looper的loop函数中循环取出MessageQueue的接收消息队列中的消息， 然后调用 Hander的dispatchMessage函数对消息进行处理，至于如何处理（相应消息）则由用户指定（三个方法，优先级从高到低：Message里 面的Callback，一个实现了Runnable接口的对象，其中run函数做处理工作；Handler里面的mCallback指向的一个实现了 Callback接口的对象，里面的handleMessage进行处理；处理消息Handler对象对应的类继承并实现了其中 handleMessage函数，通过这个实现的handleMessage函数处理消息）。
Java代码
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);
}
}
Runnable说明：Runnable只是一个接口，实现了这个接口的类对应的对象也只是个普通的对象，并不是一个Java中的Thread。 Thread类经常使用Runnable，很多人有误解，所以这里澄清一下。
从上可知以下关系图：
其中清理Message是Looper里面的loop函数指把处理过的Message放到Message的Pool里面去，如果里面已经超过最大 值10个，则丢弃这个Message对象。
调用Handler是指Looper里面的loop函数从MessageQueue的接收消息队列里面取出消息，然后根据消息指向的 Handler对象调用其对应的处理方法。

说明（代码详细解释请见后文）：
使用Looper.myLooper静态方法可以取得当前线程的Looper对象。
使用mHandler = new EevntHandler(Looper.myLooper()); 可建立用来处理当前线程的Handler对象；其中，EevntHandler是Handler的子类。
使用mHandler = new EevntHandler(Looper.getMainLooper()); 可建立用来处理main线程的Handler对象；其中，EevntHandler是Handler的子类。
1.5.1.主线程给自己发送消息示例
主线程发送消息：
在onClick的case 101中创建一个继承自Handler的EventHandler对象，然后获取一个消息，然后通过EventHandler对象调用 sendMessage把消息发送到主线程的MessageQueue中。主线程由系统创建，系统会给它建立一个Looper对象和 MessageQueue，所以可以接收消息。这里只要根据主线程的Looper对象初始化EventHandler对象，就可以通过 EventHandler对象发送消息到主线程的消息队列中。
主线程处理消息：
这里是通过EventHandler的handleMessage函数处理的，其中收到的Message对象中what值为一的消息就是发送给它 的，然后把消息里面附带的字符串在TextView上显示出来。
1.5.2.其他线程给主线程发送消息示例
其他线程发送消息（这里是说不使用Runnable作为callback的消息）：
首先 postRunnable设为false，表示不通过Runnable方式进行消息相关的操作。然后启动线程noLooerThread，然后以主线程的 Looper对象为参数建立EventHandler的对象mNoLooperThreadHandler，然后获取一个Message并把一个字符串赋 值给它的一个成员obj，然后通过mNoLooperThreadHandler把消息发送到主线程的MessageQueue中。
主线程处理消息：
这里是通过EventHandler的handleMessage函数处理的，其中收到的Message对象中what值为二的消息就是上面发送 给它的，然后把消息里面附带的字符串在TextView上显示出来。
1.5.3.其他线程给自己发送消息示例
其他线程发送消息：
其他非主线程建立后没有自己的Looper对象，所以也没有MessageQueue，需要给非主线程发送消息时需要建立 MessageQueue以便接收消息。下面说明如何给自己建立MessageQueue和Looper对象。从OwnLooperThread的run 函数中可以看见有一个 Looper.prepare()调用，这个就是用来建立非主线程的MessageQueue和Looper对象的。
所以这里的发送消息过程是建立线程mOwnLooperThread，然后线程建立自己的Looper和MessageQueue对象，然后根据 上面建立的Looper对象建立对应的EventHandler对象mOwnLooperThreadHandler，然后由 mOwnLooperThreadHandler建立消息并且发送到自己的MessageQueue里面。
其他线程处理接收的消息：
线程要接收消息需要在run函数中调用Looper.loop()，然后loop函数会从MessageQueue中取出消息交给对应的 Handler对象 mOwnLooperThreadHandler处理，在mOwnLooperThreadHandler的handleMessage函数中会把 Message对象中what值为三的消息（上面发送的消息）在Log中打印出来，可以通过Logcat工具查看log。
1.5.4.其他线程以Runnable为消息参数给主线程发送消息示例
其他线程发送消息（这里是说使用Runnable作为callback的消息）：
首先 postRunnable设为true，表示通过Runnable方式进行消息相关的操作。然后启动线程noLooerThread，然后以主线程的 Looper对象为参数建立EventHandler的对象mNoLooperThreadHandler，然后获取一个Message并把一个字符串赋 值给它的一个成员obj，然后通过mNoLooperThreadHandler把消息发送到主线程的MessageQueue中。
主线程处理消息：
主线程收到上面发送的Message后直接运行上面Runnable对象中的run函数进行相应的操作。run函数通过Log打印一个字符串，可 以通过Logcat工具查看log。
1.5.5.主线程给其他线程发送消息示例
主线程发送消息：
这里首先要求线程receiveMessageThread运行（在onCreate函数中完成），并且准备好自己的Looper和 MessageQueue（这个通过ReceiveMessageThread中的run函数中的Looper.prepare()调用完成），然后根据 建立的Looper对象初始化Handler对象mOtherThreadHandler。然后在onClick的case 105中由mOtherThreadHandler建立一个消息（消息中有一个字符串对象）并且发送到线程receiveMessageThread中的 MessageQueue中。
其他线程处理接收的消息：
线程要接收消息需要在run函数中调用Looper.loop()，然后loop函数会从MessageQueue中取出消息交给对应的 Handler对象mOtherThreadHandler处理，在mOtherThreadHandler的handleMessage函数中会把 Message对象中的字符串对象在Log中打印出来，可以通过Logcat工具查看log。
