前言
Activity是Android中一个很重要的概念，堪称四大组件之首，关于Activity有很多内容，比如生命周期和启动Flags，这二者想要说清楚，恐怕又要写两篇长文，更何况分析它们的源码呢。不过本文的侧重点不是它们，我要介绍的是一个Activity典型的启动过程，本文会从源码的角度对其进行分析。我们知道，当startActivity被调用的时候，可以启动一个Activity，但是你知道这个Activity是如何被启动的吗？每个Activity也是一个对象，你知道这个对象是啥时候被创建的吗（也就是说它的构造方法是什么时候被调用的）？为什么onCreate是Activity的执行入口？所有的这一切都被系统封装好了，对我们来说是透明的，我们使用的时候仅仅是传递一个intent然后startActivity就可以达到目的了，不过，阅读了本文以后，你将会了解它的背后到底做了哪些事情。在分析之前，我先介绍几个类：
- Activity：这个大家都熟悉，startActivity方法的真正实现在Activity中
- Instrumentation：用来辅助Activity完成启动Activity的过程
- ActivityThread（包含ApplicationThread + ApplicationThreadNative + IApplicationThread）：真正启动Activity的实现都在这里
源码分析
首先看入口
code：Activity#startActivity
@Overridepublic void startActivity(Intent intent) { startActivity(intent, null);}@Overridepublic void startActivity(Intent intent, Bundle options) { if (options != null) { startActivityForResult(intent, -1, options); } else { // Note we want to go through this call for compatibility with // applications that may have overridden the method. startActivityForResult(intent, -1); }}public void startActivityForResult(Intent intent, int requestCode) { startActivityForResult(intent, requestCode, null);}说明：显然，从上往下，最终都是由startActivityForResult来实现的
接着看
code：Activity#startActivityForResult
public void startActivityForResult(Intent intent, int requestCode, Bundle options) { //一般的Activity其mParent为null，mParent常用在ActivityGroup中，ActivityGroup已废弃 if (mParent == null) { //这里会启动新的Activity，核心功能都在mMainThread.getApplicationThread()中完成 Instrumentation.ActivityResult ar = mInstrumentation.execStartActivity( this, mMainThread.getApplicationThread(), mToken, this, intent, requestCode, options); if (ar != null) { //发送结果，即onActivityResult会被调用 mMainThread.sendActivityResult( mToken, mEmbeddedID, requestCode, ar.getResultCode(), ar.getResultData()); } if (requestCode >= 0) { // If this start is requesting a result, we can avoid making // the activity visible until the result is received. Setting // this code during onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) or onResume() will keep the // activity hidden during this time, to avoid flickering. // This can only be done when a result is requested because // that guarantees we will get information back when the // activity is finished, no matter what happens to it. mStartedActivity = true; } final View decor = mWindow != null ? mWindow.peekDecorView() : null; if (decor != null) { decor.cancelPendingInputEvents(); } // TODO Consider clearing/flushing other event sources and events for child windows. } else { //在ActivityGroup内部的Activity调用startActivity的时候会走到这里，内部处理逻辑和上面是类似的 if (options != null) { mParent.startActivityFromChild(this, intent, requestCode, options); } else { // Note we want to go through this method for compatibility with // existing applications that may have overridden it. mParent.startActivityFromChild(this, intent, requestCode); } }}说明：上述代码关键点都有注释了，可以发现，真正打开activity的实现在Instrumentation的execStartActivity方法中，去看看
code：Instrumentation#execStartActivity
public ActivityResult execStartActivity( Context who, IBinder contextThread, IBinder token, Activity target, Intent intent, int requestCode, Bundle options) { //核心功能在这个whoThread中完成，其内部scheduleLaunchActivity方法用于完成activity的打开 IApplicationThread whoThread = (IApplicationThread) contextThread; if (mActivityMonitors != null) { synchronized (mSync) { //先查找一遍看是否存在这个activity final int N = mActivityMonitors.size(); for (int i=0; i<N; i++) { final ActivityMonitor am = mActivityMonitors.get(i); if (am.match(who, null, intent)) { //如果找到了就跳出循环 am.mHits++; //如果目标activity无法打开，直接return if (am.isBlocking()) { return requestCode >= 0 ? am.getResult() : null; } break; } } } } try { intent.migrateExtraStreamToClipData(); intent.prepareToLeaveProcess(); //这里才是真正打开activity的地方，核心功能在whoThread中完成。 int result = ActivityManagerNative.getDefault() .startActivity(whoThread, who.getBasePackageName(), intent, intent.resolveTypeIfNeeded(who.getContentResolver()), token, target != null ? target.mEmbeddedID : null, requestCode, 0, null, null, options); //这个方法是专门抛异常的，它会对结果进行检查，如果无法打开activity， //则抛出诸如ActivityNotFoundException类似的各种异常 checkStartActivityResult(result, intent); } catch (RemoteException e) { } return null;}说明：我想再说一下这个方法checkStartActivityResult，它也专业抛异常的，看代码，相信大家对下面的异常信息不陌生吧，就是它干的，其中最熟悉的非Unable to find explicit activity class莫属了，如果你在xml中没有注册目标activity，此异常将会抛出。
/*package*/ static void checkStartActivityResult(int res, Object intent) { if (res >= ActivityManager.START_SUCCESS) { return; } switch (res) { case ActivityManager.START_INTENT_NOT_RESOLVED: case ActivityManager.START_CLASS_NOT_FOUND: if (intent instanceof Intent && ((Intent)intent).getComponent() != null) throw new ActivityNotFoundException( "Unable to find explicit activity class " + ((Intent)intent).getComponent().toShortString() + "; have you declared this activity in your AndroidManifest.xml?"); throw new ActivityNotFoundException( "No Activity found to handle " + intent); case ActivityManager.START_PERMISSION_DENIED: throw new SecurityException("Not allowed to start activity " + intent); case ActivityManager.START_FORWARD_AND_REQUEST_CONFLICT: throw new AndroidRuntimeException( "FORWARD_RESULT_FLAG used while also requesting a result"); case ActivityManager.START_NOT_ACTIVITY: throw new IllegalArgumentException( "PendingIntent is not an activity"); default: throw new AndroidRuntimeException("Unknown error code " + res + " when starting " + intent); } }接下来我们要去看看IApplicationThread，因为核心功能由其内部的scheduleLaunchActivity方法来完成，由于IApplicationThread是个接口，所以，我们需要找到它的实现类，我已经帮大家找到了，它就是ActivityThread中的内部类ApplicationThread，看下它的继承关系：
private class ApplicationThread extends ApplicationThreadNative;
public abstract class ApplicationThreadNative extends Binder implements IApplicationThread;
可以发现，ApplicationThread还是间接实现了IApplicationThread接口，先看下这个类的结构
看完ApplicationThread的大致结构，我们应该能够猜测到，Activity的生命周期中的resume、newIntent、pause、stop等事件都是由它触发的，事实上，的确是这样的。这里，我们为了说明问题，仅仅看scheduleLaunchActivity方法
code：ApplicationThread#scheduleLaunchActivity
public final void scheduleLaunchActivity(Intent intent, IBinder token, int ident, ActivityInfo info, Configuration curConfig, CompatibilityInfo compatInfo, int procState, Bundle state, List<ResultInfo> pendingResults, List<Intent> pendingNewIntents, boolean notResumed, boolean isForward, String profileName, ParcelFileDescriptor profileFd, boolean autoStopProfiler) { updateProcessState(procState, false); ActivityClientRecord r = new ActivityClientRecord(); r.token = token; r.ident = ident; r.intent = intent; r.activityInfo = info; r.compatInfo = compatInfo; r.state = state; r.pendingResults = pendingResults; r.pendingIntents = pendingNewIntents; r.startsNotResumed = notResumed; r.isForward = isForward; r.profileFile = profileName; r.profileFd = profileFd; r.autoStopProfiler = autoStopProfiler; updatePendingConfiguration(curConfig); queueOrSendMessage(H.LAUNCH_ACTIVITY, r);}说明：上述代码很好理解，构造一个activity记录，然后发送一个消息，所以，我们要看看Handler是如何处理这个消息的，现在转到这个Handler，它有个很短的名字叫做H
code：ActivityThread#H
//这个类太长，我只帖出了我们用到的部分private class H extends Handler { public void handleMessage(Message msg) { if (DEBUG_MESSAGES) Slog.v(TAG, ">>> handling: " + codeToString(msg.what)); switch (msg.what) { //这里处理LAUNCH_ACTIVITY消息类型 case LAUNCH_ACTIVITY: { Trace.traceBegin(Trace.TRACE_TAG_ACTIVITY_MANAGER, "activityStart"); ActivityClientRecord r = (ActivityClientRecord)msg.obj; r.packageInfo = getPackageInfoNoCheck( r.activityInfo.applicationInfo, r.compatInfo); //这里处理startActivity消息 handleLaunchActivity(r, null); Trace.traceEnd(Trace.TRACE_TAG_ACTIVITY_MANAGER); } break; case RELAUNCH_ACTIVITY: { Trace.traceBegin(Trace.TRACE_TAG_ACTIVITY_MANAGER, "activityRestart"); ActivityClientRecord r = (ActivityClientRecord)msg.obj; handleRelaunchActivity(r); Trace.traceEnd(Trace.TRACE_TAG_ACTIVITY_MANAGER); } break; case PAUSE_ACTIVITY: Trace.traceBegin(Trace.TRACE_TAG_ACTIVITY_MANAGER, "activityPause"); handlePauseActivity((IBinder)msg.obj, false, msg.arg1 != 0, msg.arg2); maybeSnapshot(); Trace.traceEnd(Trace.TRACE_TAG_ACTIVITY_MANAGER); break; ... }}说明：看来还要看handleLaunchActivity
code：ActivityThread#handleLaunchActivity
private void handleLaunchActivity(ActivityClientRecord r, Intent customIntent) { // If we are getting ready to gc after going to the background, well // we are back active so skip it. unscheduleGcIdler(); if (r.profileFd != null) { mProfiler.setProfiler(r.profileFile, r.profileFd); mProfiler.startProfiling(); mProfiler.autoStopProfiler = r.autoStopProfiler; } // Make sure we are running with the most recent config. handleConfigurationChanged(null, null); if (localLOGV) Slog.v( TAG, "Handling launch of " + r); //终于到底了，大家都有点不耐烦了吧，从方法名可以看出， //performLaunchActivity真正完成了activity的调起, //同时activity会被实例化，并且onCreate会被调用 Activity a = performLaunchActivity(r, customIntent); if (a != null) { r.createdConfig = new Configuration(mConfiguration); Bundle oldState = r.state; //看到没，目标activity的onResume会被调用 handleResumeActivity(r.token, false, r.isForward, !r.activity.mFinished && !r.startsNotResumed); if (!r.activity.mFinished && r.startsNotResumed) { // The activity manager actually wants this one to start out // paused, because it needs to be visible but isn't in the // foreground. We accomplish this by going through the // normal startup (because activities expect to go through // onResume() the first time they run, before their window // is displayed), and then pausing it. However, in this case // we do -not- need to do the full pause cycle (of freezing // and such) because the activity manager assumes it can just // retain the current state it has. try { r.activity.mCalled = false; //同时，由于新activity被调起了，原activity的onPause会被调用 mInstrumentation.callActivityOnPause(r.activity); // We need to keep around the original state, in case // we need to be created again. But we only do this // for pre-Honeycomb apps, which always save their state // when pausing, so we can not have them save their state // when restarting from a paused state. For HC and later, // we want to (and can) let the state be saved as the normal // part of stopping the activity. if (r.isPreHoneycomb()) { r.state = oldState; } if (!r.activity.mCalled) { throw new SuperNotCalledException( "Activity " + r.intent.getComponent().toShortString() + " did not call through to super.onPause()"); } } catch (SuperNotCalledException e) { throw e; } catch (Exception e) { if (!mInstrumentation.onException(r.activity, e)) { throw new RuntimeException( "Unable to pause activity " + r.intent.getComponent().toShortString() + ": " + e.toString(), e); } } r.paused = true; } } else { // If there was an error, for any reason, tell the activity // manager to stop us. try { ActivityManagerNative.getDefault() .finishActivity(r.token, Activity.RESULT_CANCELED, null); } catch (RemoteException ex) { // Ignore } }}说明：关于原activity和新activity之间的状态同步，如果大家感兴趣可以自己研究下，因为逻辑太复杂，我没法把所有问题都说清楚，否则就太深入细节而淹没了整体逻辑，研究源码要的就是清楚整体逻辑。下面看最后一个方法，这个方法是activity的启动过程的真正实现。
code：ActivityThread#performLaunchActivity
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); } //首先从intent中解析出目标activity的启动参数 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(); //用ClassLoader（类加载器）将目标activity的类通过类名加载进来并调用newInstance来实例化一个对象 //其实就是通过Activity的无参构造方法来new一个对象，对象就是在这里new出来的。 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) { Context appContext = createBaseContextForActivity(r, 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; //目标activity的onCreate被调用了，到此为止，Activity被启动了，接下来的流程就是Activity的生命周期了， //本文之前已经提到，其生命周期的各种状态的切换由ApplicationThread内部来完成 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;}总结
相信当你看到这里的时候，你对Activity的启动过程应该有了一个感性的认识。Activity很复杂，特性很多，本文没法对各个细节进行深入分析，而且就算真的对各个细节都进行了深入分析，那文章要有多长啊，还有人有耐心看下去吗？希望本文能够给大家带来一些帮助，谢谢大家阅读。
