Activity setContentView 源码解析

首先会调用  Activity->setContentView

public void setContentView(@LayoutRes int layoutResID) {
    getWindow().setContentView(layoutResID);
    initWindowDecorActionBar();
}

  Activity->getWindow 返回Window对象

public Window getWindow() {
    return mWindow;
}

mWindow在attach方法内赋值为PhoneWindow

final void attach(Context context, ActivityThread aThread,
        Instrumentation instr, IBinder token, int ident,
        Application application, Intent intent, ActivityInfo info,
        CharSequence title, Activity parent, String id,
        NonConfigurationInstances lastNonConfigurationInstances,
        Configuration config, String referrer, IVoiceInteractor voiceInteractor,
        Window window, ActivityConfigCallback activityConfigCallback) {
    attachBaseContext(context);

    mFragments.attachHost(null /*parent*/);

    mWindow = new PhoneWindow(this, window, activityConfigCallback);
    mWindow.setWindowControllerCallback(this);
    ....
}

查找PhoneWindow setContentView方法为

public void setContentView(int layoutResID) {
    // Note: FEATURE_CONTENT_TRANSITIONS may be set in the process of installing the window
    // decor, when theme attributes and the like are crystalized. Do not check the feature
    // before this happens.
    if (mContentParent == null) {
        installDecor();
    } else if (!hasFeature(FEATURE_CONTENT_TRANSITIONS)) {
        mContentParent.removeAllViews();
    }

    if (hasFeature(FEATURE_CONTENT_TRANSITIONS)) {
        final Scene newScene = Scene.getSceneForLayout(mContentParent, layoutResID,
                getContext());
        transitionTo(newScene);
    } else {
        mLayoutInflater.inflate(layoutResID, mContentParent);
    }
    mContentParent.requestApplyInsets();
    final Callback cb = getCallback();
    if (cb != null && !isDestroyed()) {
        cb.onContentChanged();
    }
    mContentParentExplicitlySet = true;
}

FEATURE_CONTENT_TRANSITIONS 过度动画相关内容，这次分析暂时忽略

Activity第一次启动mContentParent == null 跳转到installDecor()

private void installDecor() {
    mForceDecorInstall = false;
    if (mDecor == null) {
        mDecor = generateDecor(-1);
        ...
    } else {
        mDecor.setWindow(this);
    }
    if (mContentParent == null) {
        mContentParent = generateLayout(mDecor);

        // Set up decor part of UI to ignore fitsSystemWindows if appropriate.
        mDecor.makeOptionalFitsSystemWindows();

        final DecorContentParent decorContentParent = (DecorContentParent) mDecor.findViewById(
                R.id.decor_content_parent);

        if (decorContentParent != null) {
            mDecorContentParent = decorContentParent;
            mDecorContentParent.setWindowCallback(getCallback());
            if (mDecorContentParent.getTitle() == null) {
                mDecorContentParent.setWindowTitle(mTitle);
            }

            final int localFeatures = getLocalFeatures();
            for (int i = 0; i < FEATURE_MAX; i++) {
                if ((localFeatures & (1 << i)) != 0) {
                    mDecorContentParent.initFeature(i);
                }
            }

            mDecorContentParent.setUiOptions(mUiOptions);

            if ((mResourcesSetFlags & FLAG_RESOURCE_SET_ICON) != 0 ||
                    (mIconRes != 0 && !mDecorContentParent.hasIcon())) {
                mDecorContentParent.setIcon(mIconRes);
            } else if ((mResourcesSetFlags & FLAG_RESOURCE_SET_ICON) == 0 &&
                    mIconRes == 0 && !mDecorContentParent.hasIcon()) {
                mDecorContentParent.setIcon(
                        getContext().getPackageManager().getDefaultActivityIcon());
                mResourcesSetFlags |= FLAG_RESOURCE_SET_ICON_FALLBACK;
            }
            if ((mResourcesSetFlags & FLAG_RESOURCE_SET_LOGO) != 0 ||
                    (mLogoRes != 0 && !mDecorContentParent.hasLogo())) {
                mDecorContentParent.setLogo(mLogoRes);
            }

            // Invalidate if the panel menu hasn't been created before this.
            // Panel menu invalidation is deferred avoiding application onCreateOptionsMenu
            // being called in the middle of onCreate or similar.
            // A pending invalidation will typically be resolved before the posted message
            // would run normally in order to satisfy instance state restoration.
            PanelFeatureState st = getPanelState(FEATURE_OPTIONS_PANEL, false);
            if (!isDestroyed() && (st == null || st.menu == null) && !mIsStartingWindow) {
                invalidatePanelMenu(FEATURE_ACTION_BAR);
            }
        } else {
            mTitleView = findViewById(R.id.title);
            if (mTitleView != null) {
                if ((getLocalFeatures() & (1 << FEATURE_NO_TITLE)) != 0) {
                    final View titleContainer = findViewById(R.id.title_container);
                    if (titleContainer != null) {
                        titleContainer.setVisibility(View.GONE);
                    } else {
                        mTitleView.setVisibility(View.GONE);
                    }
                    mContentParent.setForeground(null);
                } else {
                    mTitleView.setText(mTitle);
                }
            }
        }

        if (mDecor.getBackground() == null && mBackgroundFallbackResource != 0) {
            mDecor.setBackgroundFallback(mBackgroundFallbackResource);
        }

        // Only inflate or create a new TransitionManager if the caller hasn't
        // already set a custom one.
        if (hasFeature(FEATURE_ACTIVITY_TRANSITIONS)) {
            ...
        }
    }
}

首先会通过generateDecor(-1)创建mDecorView

protected DecorView generateDecor(int featureId) {
    // System process doesn't have application context and in that case we need to directly use
    // the context we have. Otherwise we want the application context, so we don't cling to the
    // activity.
    Context context;
    if (mUseDecorContext) {
        Context applicationContext = getContext().getApplicationContext();
        if (applicationContext == null) {
            context = getContext();
        } else {
            context = new DecorContext(applicationContext, getContext());
            if (mTheme != -1) {
                context.setTheme(mTheme);
            }
        }
    } else {
        context = getContext();
    }
    return new DecorView(context, featureId, this, getAttributes());
}

在 DecorView中会调用setWindow

DecorView(Context context, int featureId, PhoneWindow window,
        WindowManager.LayoutParams params) {
    super(context);
    ...
    setWindow(window);

    ...
}

 

mDecorView对象持有创建的phoneWindow对象
void setWindow(PhoneWindow phoneWindow) {
    mWindow = phoneWindow;
    Context context = getContext();
    if (context instanceof DecorContext) {
        DecorContext decorContext = (DecorContext) context;
        decorContext.setPhoneWindow(mWindow);
    }
}

mDecorView 创建完成后 会继续创建mContentParent  

protected ViewGroup generateLayout(DecorView decor) {
    // Apply data from current theme.

    ...

    int features = getLocalFeatures();
    // System.out.println("Features: 0x" + Integer.toHexString(features));
    if ((features & (1 << FEATURE_SWIPE_TO_DISMISS)) != 0) {
        layoutResource = R.layout.screen_swipe_dismiss;
        setCloseOnSwipeEnabled(true);
    }
    ...

    else {
        // Embedded, so no decoration is needed.
        layoutResource = R.layout.screen_simple;
        // System.out.println("Simple!");
    }
    
    mDecor.startChanging();
    mDecor.onResourcesLoaded(mLayoutInflater, layoutResource);

    ViewGroup contentParent = (ViewGroup)findViewById(ID_ANDROID_CONTENT);
    if (contentParent == null) {
        throw new RuntimeException("Window couldn't find content container view");
    }

    ...
    mDecor.finishChanging();

    return contentParent;
}

通过mDecor.onResourcesLoaded(mLayoutInflater, layoutResource)将基础布局中传过来的xml添到DecorView 

从DecorView中获取com.android.internal.R.id.content

void onResourcesLoaded(LayoutInflater inflater, int layoutResource) {
    if (mBackdropFrameRenderer != null) {
        loadBackgroundDrawablesIfNeeded();
        mBackdropFrameRenderer.onResourcesLoaded(
                this, mResizingBackgroundDrawable, mCaptionBackgroundDrawable,
                mUserCaptionBackgroundDrawable, getCurrentColor(mStatusColorViewState),
                getCurrentColor(mNavigationColorViewState));
    }

    mDecorCaptionView = createDecorCaptionView(inflater);
    final View root = inflater.inflate(layoutResource, null);
    if (mDecorCaptionView != null) {
        if (mDecorCaptionView.getParent() == null) {
            addView(mDecorCaptionView,
                    new ViewGroup.LayoutParams(MATCH_PARENT, MATCH_PARENT));
        }
        mDecorCaptionView.addView(root,
                new ViewGroup.MarginLayoutParams(MATCH_PARENT, MATCH_PARENT));
    } else {

        // Put it below the color views.
        addView(root, 0, new ViewGroup.LayoutParams(MATCH_PARENT, MATCH_PARENT));
    }
    mContentRoot = (ViewGroup) root;
    initializeElevation();
}

依据不同的features选择布局文件，通过findViewById(ID_ANDROID_CONTENT) ID_ANDROID_CONTENT值为com.android.internal.R.id.content ，下面是R.layout.screen_simple xml内容 

可以知道contentParent的类型是FrameLayout

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>


<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
    android:orientation="vertical">
    <ViewStub android:id="@+id/action_mode_bar_stub"
              android:inflatedId="@+id/action_mode_bar"
              android:layout="@layout/action_mode_bar"
              android:layout_width="match_parent"
              android:layout_height="wrap_content"
              android:theme="?attr/actionBarTheme" />
    <FrameLayout
         android:id="@android:id/content"
         android:layout_width="match_parent"
         android:layout_height="match_parent"
         android:foregroundInsidePadding="false"
         android:foregroundGravity="fill_horizontal|top"
         android:foreground="?android:attr/windowContentOverlay" />
</LinearLayout>

再调用ViewGroup window中的findViewById(ID_ANDROID_CONTENT); 

public <T extends View> T findViewById(@IdRes int id) {
    return getDecorView().findViewById(id);
}

mContentParent 为添到DecorView的基础布局中的id为android:id/conten的布局，回到setContentView 此时mContentParent不为空，调用 mLayoutInflater.inflate(layoutResID, mContentParent)，将用户传进来的布局添加到mContentParent中

 

总结

1 创建DecorView，即Activity中的顶级View

2 根据不同features添加基础布局

3 将Actitivity中布局添加到基础布局mContentParent中c void setContentView(@LayoutRes int layoutResID) {
    getWindow().setContentView(layoutResID);
    initWindowDecorActionBar();
}

public void setContentView(@LayoutRes int layoutResID) {
    getWindow().setContentView(layoutResID);
    initWindowDecorActionBar();
}
