android Handler 的一种用法

主要代码如下

    private HandlerThread mBackgroundThread;
    private Handler mBackgroundHandler;

    public boolean onCreate() {
        mBackgroundThread = new HandlerThread("LocalGroupsProviderWorker",
        		Process.THREAD_PRIORITY_BACKGROUND);
        mBackgroundThread.start();
        mBackgroundHandler = new Handler(mBackgroundThread.getLooper()) {
        	@Override
        	public void handleMessage(Message msg) {
        		performBackgroundTask(msg.what, msg.obj);
        	}
        };
    }

    private static final int BACKGROUND_TASK_CHANGE_LOCALE = 1;

    private void performBackgroundTask(int task, Object arg) {
        switch (task) {
            case BACKGROUND_TASK_CHANGE_LOCALE: {
                SQLiteDatabase db = mOpenHelper.getWritableDatabase();
                mOpenHelper.createLocalGroupsTriggers(db);
                updateDefaultLocalGroupName();
                break;
            }
            default://do nothing
    	}
    }

    public void onLocaleChanged() {
    	mBackgroundHandler.sendEmptyMessage(BACKGROUND_TASK_CHANGE_LOCALE);
    }

示例中为了让public void onLocaleChanged()切换语言时被调用，需要有以下代码

1、manifest中

        <receiver android:name="LocaleChangeReceiver">
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.LOCALE_CHANGED"/>
            </intent-filter>
        </receiver>

2、LocaleChangeReceiver.java中

public class LocaleChangeReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
    @Override
    public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
        IContentProvider ilocalprovider =
        		context.getContentResolver().acquireProvider(LocalGroups.AUTHORITY);
        ContentProvider localprovider = ContentProvider.coerceToLocalContentProvider(ilocalprovider);
        if (localprovider instanceof LocalGroupsProvider) {
        	((LocalGroupsProvider)localprovider).onLocaleChanged();
        }
    }
}
