View.post(Runnable ) 与postDelayed - 浅析

一、View.post(Runnable )

源码

    /**
     * <p>Causes the Runnable to be added to the message queue.
     * The runnable will be run on the user interface thread.</p>
     *
     * @param action The Runnable that will be executed.
     *
     * @return Returns true if the Runnable was successfully placed in to the
     *         message queue.  Returns false on failure, usually because the
     *         looper processing the message queue is exiting.
     *
     * @see #postDelayed
     * @see #removeCallbacks
     */
    public boolean post(Runnable action) {
        final AttachInfo attachInfo = mAttachInfo;
        if (attachInfo != null) {
            return attachInfo.mHandler.post(action);
        }

        // Postpone the runnable until we know on which thread it needs to run.
        // Assume that the runnable will be successfully placed after attach.
        getRunQueue().post(action);
        return true;
    }

View.post(Runnable ) 是干啥的呢？？官方说：

• 将Runnable添加到消息队列。
• runnable将在UI线程上运行。
• 如果这会UI线程闲着，就直接帮你干活
• 如果这会正忙，那就给你排个队等着吧

在细节点，就是在post(Runnable)方法里，View获得当前线程（即UI线程）的Handler，然后将action对象post到Handler里。
在Handler里，它将传递过来的action对象包装成一个Message（Message的callback为action），然后将其投入UI线程的消息循环中。
在Handler再次处理该Message时，有一条分支（未解释的那条）就是为它所设，直接调用runnable的run方法。而此时，在UI线程里，就可以来更新UI了。

示例：

       new WebView(this).post(new Runnable() {
            @Override
            public void run() {
                //你要在主线程做的事情
            }
        });

二、postDelayed (Runnable action, long delayMillis)

    new WebView(this).postDelayed(new Runnable() {
        @Override
        public void run() {
            //1秒后你要在主线程做的事情
                
        }
    },1000);

这哥们啥意思呢？就是可以让你延时1秒再做事情，其他和上面那货一毛一样啊，不信我们看看源码：

   public boolean postDelayed(Runnable action, long delayMillis) {
        final AttachInfo attachInfo = mAttachInfo;
        if (attachInfo != null) {
            return attachInfo.mHandler.postDelayed(action, delayMillis);
        }

        // Postpone the runnable until we know on which thread it needs to run.
        // Assume that the runnable will be successfully placed after attach.
        getRunQueue().postDelayed(action, delayMillis);
        return true;
    }

注意

由于不是在新的线程中使用，所以千万别做复杂的计算逻辑。
