Android UI树的Layout原理

在UI树的任意一个节点，当它被它的父亲layout时，这个节点的layout方法被父亲调用：

public void layout(int l, int t, int r, int b) {
    if ((mPrivateFlags3 & PFLAG3_MEASURE_NEEDED_BEFORE_LAYOUT) != 0) {
        onMeasure(mOldWidthMeasureSpec, mOldHeightMeasureSpec);
        mPrivateFlags3 &= ~PFLAG3_MEASURE_NEEDED_BEFORE_LAYOUT;
    }

    int oldL = mLeft;
    int oldT = mTop;
    int oldB = mBottom;
    int oldR = mRight;

    boolean changed = isLayoutModeOptical(mParent) ?
            setOpticalFrame(l, t, r, b) : setFrame(l, t, r, b);

    if (changed || (mPrivateFlags & PFLAG_LAYOUT_REQUIRED) == PFLAG_LAYOUT_REQUIRED) {
        onLayout(changed, l, t, r, b);
        mPrivateFlags &= ~PFLAG_LAYOUT_REQUIRED;

        ListenerInfo li = mListenerInfo;
        if (li != null && li.mOnLayoutChangeListeners != null) {
            ArrayList<OnLayoutChangeListener> listenersCopy =
                    (ArrayList<OnLayoutChangeListener>)li.mOnLayoutChangeListeners.clone();
            int numListeners = listenersCopy.size();
            for (int i = 0; i < numListeners; ++i) {
                listenersCopy.get(i).onLayoutChange(this, l, t, r, b, oldL, oldT, oldR, oldB);
            }
        }
    }

    mPrivateFlags &= ~PFLAG_FORCE_LAYOUT;
    mPrivateFlags3 |= PFLAG3_IS_LAID_OUT;
}

我们可以看到，调用setFrame方法将新的坐标和宽高设置进去，在setFrame中还有一个工作就是：当size发生变化时，保存PFLAG_DRAWN位，invalidate这个View，然后恢复PFLAG_DRAWN位

然后，接下来就是onLayout方法，当前View如果不是ViewGroup，那么onLayout里面为空，什么都不做，当前View如果是ViewGroup，那么会调用每一个孩子进行layout

举FrameLayout的onLayout方法为例

void layoutChildren(int left, int top, int right, int bottom,
                              boolean forceLeftGravity) {
    final int count = getChildCount();

    final int parentLeft = getPaddingLeftWithForeground();
    final int parentRight = right - left - getPaddingRightWithForeground();

    final int parentTop = getPaddingTopWithForeground();
    final int parentBottom = bottom - top - getPaddingBottomWithForeground();

    mForegroundBoundsChanged = true;

    for (int i = 0; i < count; i++) {
        final View child = getChildAt(i);
        if (child.getVisibility() != GONE) {
            final LayoutParams lp = (LayoutParams) child.getLayoutParams();

            final int width = child.getMeasuredWidth();
            final int height = child.getMeasuredHeight();

            int childLeft;
            int childTop;

            int gravity = lp.gravity;
            if (gravity == -1) {
                gravity = DEFAULT_CHILD_GRAVITY;
            }

            final int layoutDirection = getLayoutDirection();
            final int absoluteGravity = Gravity.getAbsoluteGravity(gravity, layoutDirection);
            final int verticalGravity = gravity & Gravity.VERTICAL_GRAVITY_MASK;

            switch (absoluteGravity & Gravity.HORIZONTAL_GRAVITY_MASK) {
                case Gravity.CENTER_HORIZONTAL:
                    childLeft = parentLeft + (parentRight - parentLeft - width) / 2 +
                    lp.leftMargin - lp.rightMargin;
                    break;
                case Gravity.RIGHT:
                    if (!forceLeftGravity) {
                        childLeft = parentRight - width - lp.rightMargin;
                        break;
                    }
                case Gravity.LEFT:
                default:
                    childLeft = parentLeft + lp.leftMargin;
            }

            switch (verticalGravity) {
                case Gravity.TOP:
                    childTop = parentTop + lp.topMargin;
                    break;
                case Gravity.CENTER_VERTICAL:
                    childTop = parentTop + (parentBottom - parentTop - height) / 2 +
                    lp.topMargin - lp.bottomMargin;
                    break;
                case Gravity.BOTTOM:
                    childTop = parentBottom - height - lp.bottomMargin;
                    break;
                default:
                    childTop = parentTop + lp.topMargin;
            }

            child.layout(childLeft, childTop, childLeft + width, childTop + height);
        }
    }
}

总结成一句话就是：对每一个孩子，取出LayoutParams，计算left和top，然后调用child.layout方法。
