intentservice使用(Intention)

大家好，又见面了，我是你们的朋友全栈君。

IntentService浅析

说起IntentService就需要先了解一下Service。

Service 是长期运行在后台的应用程序组件。

Service 不是一个单独的进程，它和应用程序在同一个进程中，Service 也不是一个线程,它和线程没有任何关系，所以它不能直接处理耗时操作。如果直接把耗时操作放在 Service 的 onStartCommand() 中，很容易引起 ANR（ActivityManagerService.java中定义了超时时间，前台service超过20S，后台Service超过200S无响应就会ANR） 。如果有耗时操作就必须开启一个单独的线程来处理。

既然Service不能直接执行耗时操作，那么在Service开启子线程执行耗时操作不就好了。当然，这么想完全没毛病，在Service中执行耗时操作也只能这么干。如：

public int onStartCommand(Intent intent, int flags, int startId) {
    
    Thread thread = new Thread(){
        @Override
        public void run() {
            
            /**
             * 耗时的代码在子线程里面写
             */
            
        }
    };
    thread.start();
    
    return super.onStartCommand(intent, flags, startId);
}

正如前面说到，Service是长期运行在后台的应用程序组件，那么Service一旦启动就会一直运行下去，必须人为调用stopService()或者stopSelf()方法才能让服务停止下来。如果耗时操作只想执行一次，那么必须在执行耗时操作的子线程执行完后就结束Service自身。如：

public void run() {
            
 	/**
 	 * 耗时的代码在子线程里面写
 	*/
	stopSelf();
}

或者在代码里的某个地方调用stopService()或者stopSelf()方法。

这么做是否很麻烦呢？如果忘记在Service开始子线程呢？如果忘记结束Service呢？

所以引入了今天的话题：IntentService。

IntentService 是继承于 Service 并处理异步请求的一个类，在 IntentService 内有一个工作线程来处理耗时操作，启动 IntentService 的方式和启动传统 Service 一样，同时，当任务执行完后，IntentService 会自动停止，而不需要我们去手动控制。另外，可以启动 IntentService 多次，而每一个耗时操作会以工作队列的方式在IntentService 的 onHandleIntent 回调方法中执行，并且，每次只会执行一个工作线程，执行完第一个再执行第二个，以此类推。

而且，所有请求都在一个单线程中，不会阻塞应用程序的主线程（UI Thread），同一时间只处理一个请求。 那么，用 IntentService 有什么好处呢？首先，我们省去了在 Service 中手动开线程的麻烦，第二，当操作完成时，我们不用手动停止 Service。

IntentService源码分析

package android.app;

import android.annotation.WorkerThread;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Handler;
import android.os.HandlerThread;
import android.os.IBinder;
import android.os.Looper;
import android.os.Message;

/**
 * IntentService is a base class for {@link Service}s that handle asynchronous
 * requests (expressed as {@link Intent}s) on demand.  Clients send requests
 * through {@link android.content.Context#startService(Intent)} calls; the
 * service is started as needed, handles each Intent in turn using a worker
 * thread, and stops itself when it runs out of work.
 *
 * <p>This "work queue processor" pattern is commonly used to offload tasks
 * from an application's main thread.  The IntentService class exists to
 * simplify this pattern and take care of the mechanics.  To use it, extend
 * IntentService and implement {@link #onHandleIntent(Intent)}.  IntentService
 * will receive the Intents, launch a worker thread, and stop the service as
 * appropriate.
 *
 * <p>All requests are handled on a single worker thread -- they may take as
 * long as necessary (and will not block the application's main loop), but
 * only one request will be processed at a time.

    @Override

        // TODO: It would be nice to have an option to hold a partial wakelock

    /**

     */
    @WorkerThread
    protected abstract void onHandleIntent(Intent intent);
}

Service有startService()和bindService()两种启动方式，那么IntentService是否也有呢？

 	/**
     * Unless you provide binding for your service, you don't need to implement this
     * method, because the default implementation returns null. 
     * @see android.app.Service#onBind
     */
    @Override
    public IBinder onBind(Intent intent) {
        return null;
    }

IntentService 源码中的 onBind() 默认返回 null；不适合 bindService() 启动服务，如果你执意要 bindService() 来启动 IntentService，可能因为你想通过 Binder 或 Messenger 使得 IntentService 和 Activity 可以通信，这样那么 onHandleIntent() 不会被回调，相当于在你使用 Service 而不是 IntentService。因此，并不建议通过 bindService() 启动 IntentService，而是通过startService()来启动IntentService。

为什么多次启动 IntentService 会顺序执行事件，停止服务后，后续的事件得不到执行？

@Override
public void onStart(Intent intent, int startId) {
    Message msg = mServiceHandler.obtainMessage();
    msg.arg1 = startId;
    msg.obj = intent;
    mServiceHandler.sendMessage(msg);
}

@Override
public void onDestroy() {
    mServiceLooper.quit();
}

IntentService 中使用的 Handler、Looper、MessageQueue 机制把消息发送到线程中去执行的，所以多次启动 IntentService 不会重新创建新的服务和新的线程，只是把消息加入消息队列中等待执行，而如果服务停止，会清除消息队列中的消息，后续的事件得不到执行。

使用方法：

1、创建一个类并继承IntentService，重写onHandleIntent()，构造函数super("线程名");

2、在AndroidManifest.xml里注册，同Service；

3、通过startService()启动。

package com.eebbk.synchinese.widgetutil;

import android.app.IntentService;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.support.annotation.Nullable;

/**
 * 刷新桌面挂件
 * Created by zhangshao on 2018/2/28.
 */
public class WidgetUpdateService extends IntentService {

	public WidgetUpdateService() {
		super("WidgetUpdateService");
	}

	@Override
	protected void onHandleIntent(@Nullable Intent intent) {
		synchronized (this) {
			FastOpenBookUtil.refreshLearnBookWidgetBroadCast(this);
		}
	}
}

附：

ActivityManagerService.java中ANR的超时时间定义：

1、Broadcast超时时间为10秒：

// How long we allow a receiver to run before giving up on it.
static final int BROADCAST_FG_TIMEOUT = 10*1000;
static final int BROADCAST_BG_TIMEOUT = 60*1000;

2、按键无响应的超时时间为5秒

// How long we wait until we timeout on key dispatching.
static final int KEY_DISPATCHING_TIMEOUT = 5*1000;

3、Service的ANR在ActiveServices中定义：

前台service无响应的超时时间为20秒，后台service为200秒

// How long we wait for a service to finish executing.
static final int SERVICE_TIMEOUT = 20*1000;

// How long we wait for a service to finish executing.
static final int SERVICE_BACKGROUND_TIMEOUT = SERVICE_TIMEOUT * 10;
