HandlerThread使用，子线程中创建Handler

1、定义子线程类，继承HandlerThreand

public class MyHandlerThread extends HandlerThread {
    private Handler mUIHandler;//主线程的Handler
    private static final String TAG = "DownloadThread";
    public static final int TYPE_START = 2;//通知主线程任务开始
    public static final int TYPE_FINISHED = 3;//通知主线程任务结束
    public MyHandlerThread(String name) {
        super(name);
    }
    //注入主线程Handler
    public void setUIHandler(Handler mUIHandler) {
        mUIHandler = mUIHandler;
        Log.e(TAG, "setUIHandler: 2.主线程的handler传入到Download线程");
    }
    //线程任务
    public void startTask() {
        Log.e(TAG, "startDownload: 3.通知主线程,子线程任务开始");
        mUIHandler.sendEmptyMessage(TYPE_START);
        //模拟下载
        Log.e(TAG, "startDownload: 5.Download线程下载中...");
        SystemClock.sleep(2000);
        Log.e(TAG, "startDownload: 6.通知主线程,子线程任务完成");
        mUIHandler.sendEmptyMessage(TYPE_FINISHED);
    }
}

2、使用

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
    private static final String TAG = "MainActivity";
    private MyHandlerThread mHandlerThread;//子线程
    private Handler mUIhandler;//主线程的Handler
    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
        //初始化，参数为线程的名字
        mHandlerThread = new MyHandlerThread ("mHandlerThread");
        //调用start方法启动线程
        mHandlerThread.start();
        //初始化Handler，传递mHandlerThread内部的一个looper
        mUIhandler = new Handler(mHandlerThread.getLooper()) {
            @Override
            public void handleMessage(Message msg) {
                //判断mHandlerThread里传来的msg，根据msg进行主页面的UI更改
                switch (msg.what) {
                    case MyHandlerThread.TYPE_START:
                        Log.e(TAG, "4.主线程知道子线程任务开始了...这时候可以更改主界面UI");
                        break;
                    case MyHandlerThread.TYPE_FINISHED:
                        Log.e(TAG, "7.主线程知道子线程任务完成了...这时候可以更改主界面UI，收工");
                        break;
                    default:
                        break;
                }
                super.handleMessage(msg);
            }
        };
        //子线程注入主线程的mUIhandler，可以在子线程执行任务的时候，随时发送消息回来主线程
        mHandlerThread.setUIHandler(mUIhandler);
        //子线程任务开始
        mHandlerThread.startTask();
    }
    @Override
    protected void onDestroy() {
        //有2种退出方式
        mHandlerThread.quit();
        //mHandlerThread.quitSafely(); 需要API>=18
        super.onDestroy();
    }
}
