Android的APP启动过程分析

Android应用程序，以ActivityThread.main()做为主入口

下图展示了Application以及Activity的创建过程



1、创建Application
每个应用程序在第一次启动时，都会先创建一个Application对象。Application对象，是通过ActivityThread的handleBindApplication()创建的

private void handleBindApplication(AppBindData data) {
Application app = data.info.makeApplication(data.restrictedBackupMode, null);//创建Application对象
mInstrumentation.callApplicationOnCreate(app);//调用Application.onCreate
}

2、创建Activity
Activity对象，是通过ActivityThread的handleLaunchActivity()中的performLaunchActivity()创建的

private void handleLaunchActivity(ActivityClientRecord r, Intent customIntent) {

Activity a = performLaunchActivity(r, customIntent);

if (a != null) {
r.createdConfig = new Configuration(mConfiguration);
Bundle oldState = r.state;
handleResumeActivity(r.token, false, r.isForward);

......

} else { ...... } }

private Activity performLaunchActivity(ActivityClientRecord r, Intent customIntent) {
// System.out.println("##### [" + System.currentTimeMillis() + "] ActivityThread.performLaunchActivity(" + r + ")");

ActivityInfo aInfo = r.activityInfo;
if (r.packageInfo == null) {
r.packageInfo = getPackageInfo(aInfo.applicationInfo, r.compatInfo,
Context.CONTEXT_INCLUDE_CODE);
}

ComponentName component = r.intent.getComponent();
if (component == null) {
component = r.intent.resolveActivity(
mInitialApplication.getPackageManager());
r.intent.setComponent(component);
}

if (r.activityInfo.targetActivity != null) {
component = new ComponentName(r.activityInfo.packageName,
r.activityInfo.targetActivity);
}

Activity activity = null;
try {
java.lang.ClassLoader cl = r.packageInfo.getClassLoader();
activity = mInstrumentation.newActivity(
cl, component.getClassName(), r.intent);
StrictMode.incrementExpectedActivityCount(activity.getClass());
r.intent.setExtrasClassLoader(cl);
if (r.state != null) {
r.state.setClassLoader(cl);
}
} catch (Exception e) {
if (!mInstrumentation.onException(activity, e)) {
throw new RuntimeException(
"Unable to instantiate activity " + component
+ ": " + e.toString(), e);
}
}

try {
Application app = r.packageInfo.makeApplication(false, mInstrumentation);

if (localLOGV) Slog.v(TAG, "Performing launch of " + r);
if (localLOGV) Slog.v(
TAG, r + ": app=" + app
+ ", appName=" + app.getPackageName()
+ ", pkg=" + r.packageInfo.getPackageName()
+ ", comp=" + r.intent.getComponent().toShortString()
+ ", dir=" + r.packageInfo.getAppDir());

if (activity != null) {
ContextImpl appContext = new ContextImpl();
appContext.init(r.packageInfo, r.token, this);
appContext.setOuterContext(activity);
CharSequence title = r.activityInfo.loadLabel(appContext.getPackageManager());
Configuration config = new Configuration(mCompatConfiguration);
if (DEBUG_CONFIGURATION) Slog.v(TAG, "Launching activity "
+ r.activityInfo.name + " with config " + config);
activity.attach(appContext, this, getInstrumentation(), r.token,
r.ident, app, r.intent, r.activityInfo, title, r.parent,
r.embeddedID, r.lastNonConfigurationInstances, config);

if (customIntent != null) {
activity.mIntent = customIntent;
}
r.lastNonConfigurationInstances = null;
activity.mStartedActivity = false;
int theme = r.activityInfo.getThemeResource();
if (theme != 0) {
activity.setTheme(theme);
}

activity.mCalled = false;
mInstrumentation.callActivityOnCreate(activity, r.state);
if (!activity.mCalled) {
throw new SuperNotCalledException(
"Activity " + r.intent.getComponent().toShortString() +
" did not call through to super.onCreate()");
}
r.activity = activity;
r.stopped = true;
if (!r.activity.mFinished) {
activity.performStart();
r.stopped = false;
}
if (!r.activity.mFinished) {
if (r.state != null) {
mInstrumentation.callActivityOnRestoreInstanceState(activity, r.state);
}
}
if (!r.activity.mFinished) {
activity.mCalled = false;
mInstrumentation.callActivityOnPostCreate(activity, r.state);
if (!activity.mCalled) {
throw new SuperNotCalledException(
"Activity " + r.intent.getComponent().toShortString() +
" did not call through to super.onPostCreate()");
}
}
}
r.paused = true;

mActivities.put(r.token, r);

} catch (SuperNotCalledException e) {
throw e;

} catch (Exception e) {
if (!mInstrumentation.onException(activity, e)) {
throw new RuntimeException(
"Unable to start activity " + component
+ ": " + e.toString(), e);
}
}

return activity;
}

根据文章刚开始描述应用启动过程的时序图，列出部分关键代码：

ActivityThread
主入口main

public static void main(String[] args) {
Looper. prepareMainLooper();
if ( sMainThreadHandler == null ) {
sMainThreadHandler = new Handler();
}

ActivityThread thread = new ActivityThread();
thread.attach( false);

Looper.loop();
}

private void attach( boolean system) {
sThreadLocal.set( this );
mSystemThread = system;
if (!system) {
IActivityManager mgr = ActivityManagerNative.getDefault();
try {
mgr.attachApplication( mAppThread );//mAppThread是一个ApplicationThread实例
} catch (RemoteException ex) {
// Ignore
}
} else {
// Don't set application object here -- if the system crashes,
// we can't display an alert, we just want to die die die.
}
}
