通常在Activity的onCreate()方法或Fragment的onActivityCreated()内初始化一个装载器,如:
// Prepare the loader. Either re-connect with an existing one,
// or start a new one.
getLoaderManager().initLoader(0, null, this);
initLoader方法带有以下参数:
1. 标识这个装载器的唯一ID,这个例子中ID是“0”;
2. 可选参数,它是给装载器提供的在构造时所需的参数,这个例子中是null;
3. 一个LoaderManager.LoaderCallbacks的实现,LoaderManager会调用这个实现来报告装载器事件。在这个例子中,这个类实现了LoaderManager.LoaderCallbacks接口,因此它把它自己(this)的引用传给了initLoader()方法。
initLoader()调用确保了装载器被初始化和激活。它有两种可能的结果:
1. 如果通过ID指定的装载器已经存在,那么最后被创建的装载器被重用。
2. 如果通过ID指定的装载器不存在,initLoader()方法会触发LoaderManager.LoaderCallbacks的onCreateLoader()方法。这是你实现初始化代码的地方,并且返回一个新的装载器。关于更多的讨论,请看onCreateLoader()相关章节。
在这两种情况下,都给LoaderManager.LoaderCallbacks实现了与装载器的关联,并且在装载器状态改变的时候,相关的回调方法会被调用。如果在调用的时点调用者是在被启动的状态,并且被请求的装载器已经存在且已经生成了相关的数据,那么系统会立即调用onLoadFinished()(在initLoader()方执行期间),因此你必须为这种情况做好准备。对于这个回调的更多讨论,请看onloadFinished()回调。
注意:initLoader()方法返回一个被创建的Loader对象,但是你不需要获取关于这个对象的引用,因为LoaderManager对象自动的管理着装载器的生存。LoaderManager对象在需要的时候启动和终止装载器,并且保持着装载器的状态和相关匹配的内容。这就意味着,你很少直接跟装载器交互(虽然可以使用装载器方法微调装载器的行为,请参阅例子LoaderThrottle),大多数情况都是使用LoaderManagerLoaderCallbacks的回调方法在加载过程中发生特定事件时来进行干预。关于更多的讨论,可参阅使用LoaderManager回调方法(Using the LoaderManager Callbacks)
