Android的线程和线程池

线程在Android中是一个很重要的概念,从用途上来说,线程分为主线程和子线程,主线程主要处理和界面相关的事情,而子线程则往往用于执行耗时操作。在Android中扮演线程角色的还有很多,比如AsyncTask和IntentService,同时HandlerThread也是一种特殊的线程,但他们本质都是传统的线程。AsyncTask底层用到了线程池,对于IntentService和HandlerThread来说,它们的底层则直接使用了线程。

不同形式的线程虽然都是线程,但是它们具有不同的特性和使用场景。AsyncTask封装了线程池和Handler,它主要是为了方便开发者在子线程中更新UI,HandlerThread是一中消息循环的线程,在它的内部可以使用Handler。IntentService是一个服务,系统对其进行了封装使其可以更方便地执行后台任务,IntentService内部采用HandlerThread来执行任务,当任务执行完毕后IntentService会自动退出。

在操作系统中,线程是操作系统的调度的最小单元,同时线程又是一种受限的系统资源,即线程不可能无限制地产生,并且线程的创建和销毁都会相应的开销。如果一个进程中频繁地创建和销毁线程,这显然不是高效的做法,正确的做法是采用线程池,在这个线程池中会缓存一定数量的线程,通过线程池就可以避免因为频繁创建和销毁线程所带来的系统开销。

Android中的线程形态

AsyncTask

AsyncTask是一种轻量级的异步任务类,它可以在线程池中执行后台任务,然后把执行的进度和最终结果传递给主线程并在主线程中更新UI。从实现上来说,AsyncTask封装了Thread和Handler,通过AsyncTask可以更加方便地执行后台任务以及在主线程中访问UI,但是AsyncTask并不适合进行特别耗时的后台任务,对于特别耗时的任务来说,用线程池比较好点。

AsyncTask提供了4个核心方法:

  • onPreExecute(),在主线程中执行,在异步任务执行之前,次方法会被调用,做一些准备工作。
  • doInBackground(Params…params),在线程池中执行,次方法用于执行异步任务,params参数表示异步任务的输入参数。
  • onProgressUpdate(Progress…values),在主线程中执行,当后台任务的执行进度发生改变时此方法会被调用。
  • onPostExecute(Result result),在主线程中执行,在异步任务执行之后,此方法会被调用。

从中我们知道了,线程池中线程的数量跟CPU内核多少有关,在一个处理队列中最多只有128个,这个并发数超过就会报异常,同时源码里也看到,是通过sHandler发送一个MESSAGE_POST_RESULT的消息进行最终处理的。

sHandler是一个静态的Handler对象,为了能够将执行环境切换到主线程,这就要求sHandler这个对象必须在主线程中创建。由于静态成员会在加载类的时候进行初始化,因此这就变相要求AsyncTask的类必须在主线程中加载,否则同一个进程中的AsyncTask都无法正常工作。

还有一点要注意下,从Android 3.0开始,默认情况下AsyncTask是串行执行的。但在Android 3.0之前是并行执行的。

HandlerThread

HandlerThread继承了Thread,它是一种可以使用Handler的Thread,它的实现很简单,就在run方法中通过Looper.prepare()来创建消息队列,并通过Looper.loop()来开启消息循环,这样在实际的使用中就允许在HandlerThread中创建Handler。看下源代码:

public class HandlerThread extends Thread {
    int mPriority;
    int mTid = -1;
    Looper mLooper;

    public HandlerThread(String name) {
        super(name);
        mPriority = Process.THREAD_PRIORITY_DEFAULT;
    }
    
    /**

        super(name);
        mPriority = priority;
    }

    public void run() {
        mTid = Process.myTid();
        Looper.prepare();
        synchronized (this) {
            mLooper = Looper.myLooper();
            notifyAll();
        }
        Process.setThreadPriority(mPriority);
        onLooperPrepared();
        Looper.loop();

    }

IntentService

IntentService是一种特殊的Service,它继承了Service并且它是一种抽象类,因此必须创建它的子类才能使用IntentService。IntentService可用于执行后台耗时的任务,当任务执行后它会自动停止,同时由于IntentService是服务的原因,这导致他的优先级比单纯的线程要高很多,所以IntentService比较适合执行一些高优先级的后台任务,因为它的优先级高不容易被系统杀死。看下源码:

Android中的线程池

线程池的优点:

  • 重用线程池中的线程,避免因为线程的创建和销毁所带来的性能开销。
  • 能有效控制线程池中的最大并发数,避免大量的线程之间因为互相抢占系统资源而导致的阻塞现象。
  • 能够对线程进行简单的管理,并提供定时执行以及指定间隔循环执行等功能。

Android中的线程池的概念来源于Java中的Executor,Executor是一个接口,真正的线程池的实现为ThreadPoolExecutor。ThreadPoolExecutor提供一系列参数来配置线程池,通过不同的参数可以创建不同的线程池,从线程池的功能特性来说,线程池主要分为4类。

ThreadPoolExecutor执行任务时大致遵循以下规则:

  1. 如果线程池中的线程数量未达到核心线程的数量,那么会直接启动一个核心线程来执行任务。
  2. 如果线程中的线程数量已经达到或者超过核心线程的数量,那么任务会被插入到任务队列中排队等待执行。
  3. 如果在步骤2中无法将任务插入到任务队列中,这往往是由于任务队列已经满了, 这个时候如果线程数量未达到线程池规定的最大值,那么会立刻启动一个非核心线程来执行任务。
  4. 如果步骤3的中线程数量已经达到线程池规定的最大值,那么就拒绝执行此任务,ThreadPoolExecutor会调用RejectedExecutionHandler的rejectedExecution方法来通知调用者。

线程池主要有4类:

  • FixThreadPool:这是一种线程数量固定的线程池,当线程处于空闲的时候,并不会被回收,除非线程池被关闭了。
  • CachedThreadPool:这是一种线程数量不定的线程池,它只有非核心线程,并且最大线程数为Integer.MAX_VALUE。
  • ScheduledThreadPool:它的核心线程数量是固定的,而非核心线程数是没有限制的,并且当非核心线程闲置时会被立即回收。
  • SingleThreadExecutor:这类线程池内部只有一个核心线程,它确保所有的任务都在同一个线程中按顺序执行。
