GCD之dispatch queue深入浅出

iOS中多线程编程工具主要有:

  •  NSThread
  • NSOperation
  • GCD

这三种方法都简单易用,各有千秋.但无疑GCD是最有诱惑力的,因为其本身是apple为多核的并行运算提出的解决方案.虽然当前移动平台用双核的不多,但不影响GCD作为多线程编程的利器(ipad2已经是双核了,这无疑是一个趋势).

GCD是和block紧密相连的,所以最好先了解下block(可以查看这里).GCD是C level的函数,这意味着它也提供了C的函数指针作为参数,方便了C程序员.

一、下面首先来看GCD的使用:

dispatch_async(dispatch_queue_t queue, dispatch_block_t block);

async表明异步运行,block代表的是你要做的事情,queue则是你把任务交给谁来处理了.(除了async,还有sync,delay,本文以async为例).

之所以程序中会用到多线程是因为程序往往会需要读取数据,然后更新UI.为了良好的用户体验,读取数据的操作会倾向于在后台运行,这样以避免阻塞主线程.GCD里就有三种queue来处理.

       先来介绍一下 Main queue:

  顾名思义,运行在主线程,由dispatch_get_main_queue获得.和ui相关的就要使用Main Queue.

//GCD下载图片刷新主界面的例子
/*
- (IBAction)touchUpInsideByThreadOne:(id)sender {
    dispatch_async(dispatch_get_global_queue(DISPATCH_QUEUE_PRIORITY_DEFAULT, 0), ^{
        NSURL * url = [NSURL URLWithString:@"http://avatar.csdn.net/2/C/D/1_totogo2010.jpg"];
        NSData * data = [[NSData alloc]initWithContentsOfURL:url];
        UIImage *image = [[UIImage alloc]initWithData:data];
        if (data != nil) {
            dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{
                self.imageView.image = image;
            });
        }
    });
}*/


 通过与线程池的配合,dispatch queue分为下面两种:而系统默认就有一个串行队列main_queue和并行队列global_queue:

  •      Serial Dispatch Queue -- 线程池只提供一个线程用来执行任务,所以后一个任务必须等到前一个任务执行结束才能开始。
  •      Concurrent Dispatch Queue -- 线程池提供多个线程来执行任务,所以可以按序启动多个任务并发执行。

而系统默认就有一个串行队列main_queue和并行队列global_queue:

    dispatch_queue_t globalQ = dispatch_get_global_queue(DISPATCH_QUEUE_PRIORITY_DEFAULT, 0);
    dispatch_queue_t mainQ = dispatch_get_main_queue();
通常,我们可以在global_queue中做一些long-running的任务,完成后在main_queue中更新UI,避免UI阻塞,无法响应用户操作:
dispatch_async(dispatch_get_global_queue(DISPATCH_QUEUE_PRIORITY_DEFAULT, 0), ^{
        // long-running task
        dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{
            // update UI
        });
    });


1.Serial quque(private dispatch queue)

  每次运行一个任务,可以添加多个,执行次序FIFO. 通常是指程序员生成的,比如:

NSDate *da = [NSDate date];
NSString *daStr = [da description];
const char *queueName = [daStr UTF8String];
dispatch_queue_t myQueue = dispatch_queue_create(queueName, DISPATCH_QUEUE_PRIORITY_DEFAULT);
下面还是下载图片例子:

- (IBAction)touchUpInsideByThreadOne:(id)sender {
    NSDate *da = [NSDate date];
    NSString *daStr = [da description];
    const char *queueName = [daStr UTF8String];
    dispatch_queue_t myQueue = dispatch_queue_create(queueName, NULL);
    
    dispatch_async(myQueue, ^{
        NSURL * url = [NSURL URLWithString:@"http://avatar.csdn.net/2/C/D/1_totogo2010.jpg"];
        NSData * data = [[NSData alloc]initWithContentsOfURL:url];
        UIImage *image = [[UIImage alloc]initWithData:data];
        if (data != nil) {
            dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{
                self.imageView.image = image;
            });
        }
    });
    
    dispatch_release(myQueue);
}
为了验证Serial queue的FIFO特性,写了如下的验证代码:发现的确是顺序执行的。

- (IBAction)touchUpInsideByThreadOne:(id)sender {
    NSDate *da = [NSDate date];
    NSString *daStr = [da description];
    const char *queueName = [daStr UTF8String];
    dispatch_queue_t myQueue = dispatch_queue_create(queueName, DISPATCH_QUEUE_SERIAL);
    
    dispatch_async(myQueue, ^{
        [NSThread sleepForTimeInterval:6];
        NSLog(@"[NSThread sleepForTimeInterval:6];");
    });
    
    dispatch_async(myQueue, ^{
        [NSThread sleepForTimeInterval:3];
        NSLog(@"[NSThread sleepForTimeInterval:3];");
    });
    
    dispatch_async(myQueue, ^{
        [NSThread sleepForTimeInterval:1];
        NSLog(@"[NSThread sleepForTimeInterval:1];");
    });
    
    dispatch_release(myQueue);
}
运行结果为:

2013-07-24 16:37:14.397 NSThreadAndBlockDemo[1924:12303] [NSThread sleepForTimeInterval:6];
2013-07-24 16:37:17.399 NSThreadAndBlockDemo[1924:12303] [NSThread sleepForTimeInterval:3];
2013-07-24 16:37:18.401 NSThreadAndBlockDemo[1924:12303] [NSThread sleepForTimeInterval:1];

3. Concurrent queue(global dispatch queue):

可以同时运行多个任务,每个任务的启动时间是按照加入queue的顺序,结束的顺序依赖各自的任务.使用dispatch_get_global_queue获得.

- (IBAction)touchUpInsideByThreadOne:(id)sender {
    dispatch_queue_t myQueue = dispatch_get_global_queue(DISPATCH_QUEUE_PRIORITY_DEFAULT, 0);
    
    dispatch_async(myQueue, ^{
        [NSThread sleepForTimeInterval:6];
        NSLog(@"[NSThread sleepForTimeInterval:6];");
    });
    
    dispatch_async(myQueue, ^{
        [NSThread sleepForTimeInterval:3];
        NSLog(@"[NSThread sleepForTimeInterval:3];");
    });
    
    dispatch_async(myQueue, ^{
        [NSThread sleepForTimeInterval:1];
        NSLog(@"[NSThread sleepForTimeInterval:1];");
    });
    
    dispatch_release(myQueue);
}
运行的结果为:

2013-07-24 16:38:41.660 NSThreadAndBlockDemo[1944:12e03] [NSThread sleepForTimeInterval:1];
2013-07-24 16:38:43.660 NSThreadAndBlockDemo[1944:12b03] [NSThread sleepForTimeInterval:3];
2013-07-24 16:38:46.660 NSThreadAndBlockDemo[1944:12303] [NSThread sleepForTimeInterval:6];


二、dispatch_group_async的使用

dispatch_group_async可以实现监听一组任务是否完成,完成后得到通知执行其他的操作。这个方法很有用,比如你执行三个下载任务,当三个任务都下载完成后你才通知界面说完成的了。下面是一段例子代码:

- (IBAction)touchUpInsideByThreadOne:(id)sender {
    dispatch_queue_t queue = dispatch_get_global_queue(DISPATCH_QUEUE_PRIORITY_DEFAULT, 0);
    dispatch_group_t group = dispatch_group_create();
    dispatch_group_async(group, queue, ^{
        [NSThread sleepForTimeInterval:6];
        NSLog(@"group1 [NSThread sleepForTimeInterval:6];");
    });
    dispatch_group_async(group, queue, ^{
        [NSThread sleepForTimeInterval:3];
        NSLog(@"group2 [NSThread sleepForTimeInterval:3];");
    });
    dispatch_group_async(group, queue, ^{
        [NSThread sleepForTimeInterval:1];
        NSLog(@"group3 [NSThread sleepForTimeInterval:1];");
    });
    dispatch_group_notify(group, dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{
        NSLog(@"main thread.");
    });
    dispatch_release(group);
}
执行结果为:

2013-07-24 16:48:23.063 NSThreadAndBlockDemo[2004:12e03] group3 [NSThread sleepForTimeInterval:1];
2013-07-24 16:48:25.063 NSThreadAndBlockDemo[2004:12b03] group2 [NSThread sleepForTimeInterval:3];
2013-07-24 16:48:28.063 NSThreadAndBlockDemo[2004:12303] group1 [NSThread sleepForTimeInterval:6];
2013-07-24 16:48:28.065 NSThreadAndBlockDemo[2004:11303] main thread.

果然, dispatch_group_async只会监听最终的结果完成后,并通知main queue,那如果是我们需要顺序执行的话呢?请看下面的dispatch_barrier_async。

3、dispatch_barrier_async的使用

dispatch_barrier_async是在前面的任务执行结束后它才执行,而且它后面的任务等它执行完成之后才会执行

例子代码如下:

- (IBAction)touchUpInsideByThreadOne:(id)sender {
    dispatch_queue_t queue = dispatch_queue_create("gcdtest.rongfzh.yc", DISPATCH_QUEUE_CONCURRENT);
    
    dispatch_async(queue, ^{
        [NSThread sleepForTimeInterval:3];
        NSLog(@"dispatch_async1");
    });
    dispatch_async(queue, ^{
        [NSThread sleepForTimeInterval:1];
        NSLog(@"dispatch_async2");
    });
    dispatch_barrier_async(queue, ^{
        NSLog(@"dispatch_barrier_async");
        [NSThread sleepForTimeInterval:0.5];
        
    });
    dispatch_async(queue, ^{
        [NSThread sleepForTimeInterval:1];
        NSLog(@"dispatch_async3");
    });
}
执行结果为:

2013-07-24 17:01:54.580 NSThreadAndBlockDemo[2153:12b03] dispatch_async2
2013-07-24 17:01:56.580 NSThreadAndBlockDemo[2153:12303] dispatch_async1
2013-07-24 17:01:56.580 NSThreadAndBlockDemo[2153:12303] dispatch_barrier_async
2013-07-24 17:01:58.083 NSThreadAndBlockDemo[2153:12303] dispatch_async3
如果使用dispatch_queue_t queue = dispatch_get_global_queue(DISPATCH_QUEUE_PRIORITY_DEFAULT, 0);会发现运行结果为:

2013-07-24 17:07:17.577 NSThreadAndBlockDemo[2247:12e03] dispatch_barrier_async
2013-07-24 17:07:18.579 NSThreadAndBlockDemo[2247:15207] dispatch_async3
2013-07-24 17:07:19.578 NSThreadAndBlockDemo[2247:12b03] dispatch_async2
2013-07-24 17:07:20.577 NSThreadAndBlockDemo[2247:12303] dispatch_async1

说明dispatch_barrier_async的顺序执行还是依赖queue的类型啊,必需要queue的类型为dispatch_queue_create创建的,而且attr参数值必需是DISPATCH_QUEUE_CONCURRENT类型,前面两个非dispatch_barrier_async的类型的执行是依赖其本身的执行时间的,如果attr如果是DISPATCH_QUEUE_SERIAL时,那就完全是符合Serial queue的FIFO特征了。


4、dispatch_apply

执行某个代码片段N次。

dispatch_apply(5, globalQ, ^(size_t index) {

// 执行5次

});

5、dispatch_once

     dispatch_once这个函数,它可以保证整个应用程序生命周期中某段代码只被执行一次

static dispatch_once_t onceToken;
    dispatch_once(&onceToken, ^{
        // code to be executed once
    });
6、dispatch_after

有时候我们需要等个几秒钟然后做个动画或者给个提示,这时候可以用dispatch_after这个函数:
double delayInSeconds = 2.0;
    dispatch_time_t popTime = dispatch_time(DISPATCH_TIME_NOW, delayInSeconds * NSEC_PER_SEC);
    dispatch_after(popTime, dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^(void){
        // code to be executed on the main queue after delay
    });

7、dispatch_set_target_queue
通过 dispatch_set_target_queue 函数可以设置一个dispatch queue的优先级,或者指定一个dispatch source相应的事件处理提交到哪个queue上。
dispatch_set_target_queue(serialQ, globalQ);

由此可见,GCD的使用非常简单,以我的使用经验来看,以后会逐步淘汰使用NSOperation而改用GCD.
