广播处理时报java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: Didn't find class的原因是什么？

广播处理时报java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: Didn't find class的原因是什么？

[ANSWER]

由于广播处理不是即时的，比如很多静态注册的广播接收者，在广播发出可能要经过一定的延迟才触发广播接收者在onReceive中处理这个广播
存在一种特殊情况，假设应用A中静态注册了一个TEST_BROADCAST广播接收者，一个非应用A的进程P发了一个TEST_BROADCAST广播，之后这个广播被加入到BroadcastQueue中等待被处理，但是此时应用A发生更新操作，应用更新完之后，这个时候才轮到应用A中注册的广播接收者处理TEST_BROADCAST广播，为了处理广播，这个时候应用A会启动自己所在的进程，但是这个时候，由于应用A更新了，但是启动进程使用的packageinfo信息未能及时更新导致找不到class，因此报以下问题：
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: Didn't find class

具体原因分析如下：

1.在AMS的 broadcastIntentLocked方法中发送广播查询receiver时，receiver列表是到PackageManagerService中去获取的，每查询到一个receiver便会new一个ResolveInfo保存到receiver列表中
receivers = collectReceiverComponents(intent, resolvedType, callingUid, users);

List<ResolveInfo> newReceivers = AppGlobals.getPackageManager()
    .queryIntentReceivers(intent, resolvedType, STOCK_PM_FLAGS, user);

 

2.在AMS的 broadcastIntentLocked 方法中将广播加入对应的BroadcastQueue
    if ((receivers != null && receivers.size() > 0)
            || resultTo != null) {
        //BroadcastQueue queue = broadcastQueueForIntent(intent);
        BroadcastQueue queue = broadcastQueueForIntent(callerPackage,intent);
        // 实例化BroadcastRecord对象
        BroadcastRecord r = new BroadcastRecord(queue, intent, callerApp,
                callerPackage, callingPid, callingUid, resolvedType,
                requiredPermissions, appOp, brOptions, receivers, resultTo, resultCode,
                resultData, resultExtras, ordered, sticky, false, userId);

        if (DEBUG_BROADCAST) Slog.v(TAG_BROADCAST, "Enqueueing ordered broadcast " + r
                + ": prev had " + queue.mOrderedBroadcasts.size());
        if (DEBUG_BROADCAST) Slog.i(TAG_BROADCAST,
                "Enqueueing broadcast " + r.intent.getAction());

        boolean replaced = replacePending && queue.replaceOrderedBroadcastLocked(r);
        if (!replaced) {
         // 将BroadcastRecord对象加入到BroadcastQueue中
            queue.enqueueOrderedBroadcastLocked(r);
            queue.scheduleBroadcastsLocked();
        }
    }
BroadcastRecord作为这个广播的载体，记录着发广播的应用相关package和进程信息，权限信息等等，其中还有一个比较重要的就是receivers信息，也就是哪些广播接收者可以接收处理这个广播，这个receivers列表中包含两种广播接收者，一种是动态注册的广播接收者，一种是静态注册的广播接收者，动态注册的广播接收者是用BroadcastFilter来代表的，而静态注册的广播接收者是用ResolveInfo来表示的

 

3.广播分发处理时，如果是静态注册的广播接收者，那么这个receiver是通过ResolveInfo来表示的
 ResolveInfo info =
         (ResolveInfo)nextReceiver;
 ComponentName component = new ComponentName(
         info.activityInfo.applicationInfo.packageName,
         info.activityInfo.name);
如果ResolveInfo所表示的receiver所在的应用进程没有启动，那个这个时候就去启动这个应用进程
    if ((r.curApp=mService.startProcessLocked(targetProcess,
            info.activityInfo.applicationInfo, true,
            r.intent.getFlags() | Intent.FLAG_FROM_BACKGROUND,
            "broadcast", r.curComponent,
            (r.intent.getFlags()&Intent.FLAG_RECEIVER_BOOT_UPGRADE) != 0, false, false))
                    == null) {
这个时候问题出现了，info.activityInfo.applicationInfo 数据中保存的其实是应用A更新之前的相关应用信息，由于应用A更新了，但是启动进程使用的packageinfo信息未能及时更新导致找不到class

 

解决方案：
针对上面存在的问题，可以在发现receiver所在的应用进程没有启动之前判断应用信息是否有更新，如果当前应用信息和PMS中的应用信息不一致，说明应用更新过，则跳过当前receiver的处理，具体改动如下：
