事件分发机制是View的核心知识点，也是面试的常见考题。如果要自定义可交互的View，也必须要了解这方面的知识。这里通过android studio查看源码来进行简单的分析。
点击事件在android中用MotionEvent类来表示。点击操作发生后，产生的MotionEvent事件首先传递到Activity类（此方法是在Activity类中）：
/**
* Called to process touch screen events. You can override this to
* intercept all touch screen events before they are dispatched to the
* window. Be sure to call this implementation for touch screen events
* that should be handled normally.
*
* @param ev The touch screen event.
*
* @return boolean Return true if this event was consumed.
*/
public boolean dispatchTouchEvent(MotionEvent ev) {
if (ev.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN) {
onUserInteraction();
}
if (getWindow().superDispatchTouchEvent(ev)) {
return true;
}
return onTouchEvent(ev);
}在该类中，首先检查事件是否是按下事件（另外两种是移动MOVE和松开UP），如果是的话就调用onUserInteraction方法。在该类中这个方法的实现是空的……后面也没有覆盖实现。暂时不管它。反正我不知道为啥……
这里要提到的是事件序列。用户的一次点击事件由DOWN->MOVE->...->MOVE->UP组成。如果一个View接收并拦截了DOWN，那么接下来的事件都会由它来接收处理。这就是要判断是否为DOWN的原因。
接着会把事件交给Window类进行分发。如果事件被拦截消耗掉就返回true（跟这个方法一样）。最后才会调用onTouchEvent方法：
/**
* Called when a touch screen event was not handled by any of the views
* under it. This is most useful to process touch events that happen
* outside of your window bounds, where there is no view to receive it.
*
* @param event The touch screen event being processed.
*
* @return Return true if you have consumed the event, false if you haven't.
* The default implementation always returns false.
*/
public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent event) {
if (mWindow.shouldCloseOnTouch(this, event)) {
finish();
return true;
}
return false;
}方法说明是说如果没有View处理该事件，那么可能是发生在屏幕之外即下方边界的点击事件。这样处理对于这类点击很有用。所以方法中只是检查是否需要关闭当前Window。最后依然是true代表消费了事件。
接着是Window类。Window是一个抽象类，PhoneWindow是其唯一实现。Window类可以控制顶级View的外观和行为策略。（吐槽一下好好的一个public类居然没法用IDE传送到源码，到源码文件夹里才能看到）
Activity调用Window分发事件：
@Override
public boolean superDispatchTouchEvent(MotionEvent event) {
return mDecor.superDispatchTouchEvent(event);
}PhoneWindow传给了DecorView，注释里解释这是顶层View，包含了窗口装饰。而这个类又是ViewGroup的子类，调用的是ViewGroup的方法。
public boolean superDispatchTouchEvent(MotionEvent event) {
return super.dispatchTouchEvent(event);
} @Override
public boolean dispatchTouchEvent(MotionEvent ev) {
if (mInputEventConsistencyVerifier != null) {
mInputEventConsistencyVerifier.onTouchEvent(ev, 1);
}
// If the event targets the accessibility focused view and this is it, start
// normal event dispatch. Maybe a descendant is what will handle the click.

}方法很长。首先检查是否事件序列已经有人接收了，然后检查该事件是否指定了访问的View。最后才在检查了安全性之后进行处理。
如果是DOWN，说明新的事件序列开始，那么就会将所有状态重新初始化。
接着检查是否拦截，如果事件类型为DOWN或者之前有子View拦截了事件，就会进行拦截。
接着，disallowIntercept变量则检查是否能够拦截事件。如果可以则调用自己的onInterceptTouchEvent方法来询问是否拦截。其中FLAG_DISALLOW_INTERCEPT标识位可以由子View调用方法进行设置。
如果拦截成功，就会进入下一级的分发。遍历所有子元素，然后判断子元素是否能够收到点击事件。其中如果该事件指定了可以访问的View，我们希望它能先收到该事件，如果不处理在进行第二次遍历。后面canViewReceivePointerEvents和isTransformedTouchPointInView分别从子元素是否在播动画和子元素是否包含了点击坐标来判断是否能接受该事件。传给子元素之后调用的dispatchTransformedTouchEvent方法实际上调用的就是子元素的dispatchTouchEvent方法。这样事件就完成了一轮分发。如果返回为true则说明事件已处理，跳出循环即可。
最后如果没有子元素处理拦截该事件，那么ViewGroup会自己处理。此时会调用View类的处理方法：
if (child == null) {
handled = super.dispatchTouchEvent(event);
} else {
handled = child.dispatchTouchEvent(event);
}View并没有子元素，因此无法继续向下分发事件，处理方式比较简单：
/**
* Pass the touch screen motion event down to the target view, or this
* view if it is the target.
*
* @param event The motion event to be dispatched.
* @return True if the event was handled by the view, false otherwise.
*/
public boolean dispatchTouchEvent(MotionEvent event) {
// If the event should be handled by accessibility focus first.
if (event.isTargetAccessibilityFocus()) {
// We don't have focus or no virtual descendant has it, do not handle the event.
if (!isAccessibilityFocusedViewOrHost()) {
return false;
}
// We have focus and got the event, then use normal event dispatch.
event.setTargetAccessibilityFocus(false);
}
boolean result = false;
if (mInputEventConsistencyVerifier != null) {
mInputEventConsistencyVerifier.onTouchEvent(event, 0);
}
final int actionMasked = event.getActionMasked();
if (actionMasked == MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN) {
// Defensive cleanup for new gesture
stopNestedScroll();
}
if (onFilterTouchEventForSecurity(event)) {
if ((mViewFlags & ENABLED_MASK) == ENABLED && handleScrollBarDragging(event)) {
result = true;
}
//noinspection SimplifiableIfStatement
ListenerInfo li = mListenerInfo;
if (li != null && li.mOnTouchListener != null
&& (mViewFlags & ENABLED_MASK) == ENABLED
&& li.mOnTouchListener.onTouch(this, event)) {
result = true;
}
if (!result && onTouchEvent(event)) {
result = true;
}
}
if (!result && mInputEventConsistencyVerifier != null) {
mInputEventConsistencyVerifier.onUnhandledEvent(event, 0);
}
// Clean up after nested scrolls if this is the end of a gesture;
// also cancel it if we tried an ACTION_DOWN but we didn't want the rest
// of the gesture.
if (actionMasked == MotionEvent.ACTION_UP ||
actionMasked == MotionEvent.ACTION_CANCEL ||
(actionMasked == MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN && !result)) {
stopNestedScroll();
}
return result;
}如果View有touchListener且onTouch方法返回的是true，那么就不会调用View自己的onTouchEvent方法。否则就会调用该方法：
/**
* Implement this method to handle touch screen motion events.
* <p>
* If this method is used to detect click actions, it is recommended that
* the actions be performed by implementing and calling
* {@link #performClick()}. This will ensure consistent system behavior,
* including:
* <ul>
* <li>obeying click sound preferences
* <li>dispatching OnClickListener calls
* <li>handling {@link AccessibilityNodeInfo#ACTION_CLICK ACTION_CLICK} when
* accessibility features are enabled
* </ul>
*
* @param event The motion event.
* @return True if the event was handled, false otherwise.
*/
public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent event) {
final float x = event.getX();
final float y = event.getY();
final int viewFlags = mViewFlags;
final int action = event.getAction();
if ((viewFlags & ENABLED_MASK) == DISABLED) {
if (action == MotionEvent.ACTION_UP && (mPrivateFlags & PFLAG_PRESSED) != 0) {
setPressed(false);
}
// A disabled view that is clickable still consumes the touch
// events, it just doesn't respond to them.
return (((viewFlags & CLICKABLE) == CLICKABLE
|| (viewFlags & LONG_CLICKABLE) == LONG_CLICKABLE)
|| (viewFlags & CONTEXT_CLICKABLE) == CONTEXT_CLICKABLE);
}
if (mTouchDelegate != null) {
if (mTouchDelegate.onTouchEvent(event)) {
return true;
}
}
……
return false;
}被省略部分的处理部分的实现则说明了只要View是CLICKABLE或LONG_CLICKABLE的，就可以消耗事件：
if (((viewFlags & CLICKABLE) == CLICKABLE ||
(viewFlags & LONG_CLICKABLE) == LONG_CLICKABLE) ||
(viewFlags & CONTEXT_CLICKABLE) == CONTEXT_CLICKABLE) {
switch (action) {
case MotionEvent.ACTION_UP:
boolean prepressed = (mPrivateFlags & PFLAG_PREPRESSED) != 0;
if ((mPrivateFlags & PFLAG_PRESSED) != 0 || prepressed) {
// take focus if we don't have it already and we should in
// touch mode.
boolean focusTaken = false;
if (isFocusable() && isFocusableInTouchMode() && !isFocused()) {
focusTaken = requestFocus();
}
if (prepressed) {
// The button is being released before we actually
// showed it as pressed. Make it show the pressed
// state now (before scheduling the click) to ensure
// the user sees it.
setPressed(true, x, y);
}
if (!mHasPerformedLongPress && !mIgnoreNextUpEvent) {
// This is a tap, so remove the longpress check
removeLongPressCallback();
// Only perform take click actions if we were in the pressed state
if (!focusTaken) {
// Use a Runnable and post this rather than calling
// performClick directly. This lets other visual state
// of the view update before click actions start.
if (mPerformClick == null) {
mPerformClick = new PerformClick();
}
if (!post(mPerformClick)) {
performClick();
}
}
}
if (mUnsetPressedState == null) {
mUnsetPressedState = new UnsetPressedState();
}
if (prepressed) {
postDelayed(mUnsetPressedState,
ViewConfiguration.getPressedStateDuration());
} else if (!post(mUnsetPressedState)) {
// If the post failed, unpress right now
mUnsetPressedState.run();
}
removeTapCallback();
}
mIgnoreNextUpEvent = false;
break;
case MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN:
mHasPerformedLongPress = false;
if (performButtonActionOnTouchDown(event)) {
break;
}
// Walk up the hierarchy to determine if we're inside a scrolling container.
boolean isInScrollingContainer = isInScrollingContainer();
// For views inside a scrolling container, delay the pressed feedback for
// a short period in case this is a scroll.
if (isInScrollingContainer) {
mPrivateFlags |= PFLAG_PREPRESSED;
if (mPendingCheckForTap == null) {
mPendingCheckForTap = new CheckForTap();
}
mPendingCheckForTap.x = event.getX();
mPendingCheckForTap.y = event.getY();
postDelayed(mPendingCheckForTap, ViewConfiguration.getTapTimeout());
} else {
// Not inside a scrolling container, so show the feedback right away
setPressed(true, x, y);
checkForLongClick(0, x, y);
}
break;
case MotionEvent.ACTION_CANCEL:
setPressed(false);
removeTapCallback();
removeLongPressCallback();
mInContextButtonPress = false;
mHasPerformedLongPress = false;
mIgnoreNextUpEvent = false;
break;
case MotionEvent.ACTION_MOVE:
drawableHotspotChanged(x, y);
// Be lenient about moving outside of buttons
if (!pointInView(x, y, mTouchSlop)) {
// Outside button
removeTapCallback();
if ((mPrivateFlags & PFLAG_PRESSED) != 0) {
// Remove any future long press/tap checks
removeLongPressCallback();
setPressed(false);
}
}
break;
}
return true;
}View的CLICKABLE根据View的类型而定，LONG_CLICKABLE默认为false，而setClickListener和setLongClickListener则会将二者分别设为true。
总结：当一个点击操作发生时，Activity最先处理事件，然后传递给Window，再传递给顶层的View decorView。
对于一个ViewGroup来说，传递给它时，它的dispatchTouchEvent会被调用，接着如果它的onInterceptTouchEvent方法返回true就表示它要拦截当前事件，接着事件就会交给这个ViewGroup来处理，调用其onTouchEvent方法。如果返回false，就会调用子元素的dispatchTouchEvent将事件传递给子元素处理。
对于一个View来说，如果设置了onTouchListener，那么就会调用其onTouch方法，如果返回true则处理结束。如果没有设置或者返回false，则会调用View类自带的onTouchEvent方法。在onTouchEvent方法中，如果有设置onClickListener，那么它的onClick方法会被调用。
