四大组件 -- LocalBroadcastManager

LocalBroadcastManager 本地广播，用于应用内部通信，可以实现线程间交互。

标准的广播 BroadcastReceiver 用于跨进程通信，不同应用之间的通信，实现原理基于 Binder 机制。而同一个应用相同进程内，通过观察者模式来实现消息传递，并不需要全局广播，在 support.v4 包中提供的 LocalBroadcastManager 就是用来实现本地广播的，它是基于 Handler 机制，实现线程间通信，Handler.mLooper 为应用的主线程 Looper 。
LocalBroadcastManager 本地广播通过 Handler 逐条处理广播的（串行处理方式），它支持异步和同步处理方式。

内部类

`ReceiverRecord` 广播接收器记录

ReceiverRecord 类存储了一个广播接收器，及其对应的过滤器。

BroadcastReceiver receiver ：注册的广播接收器
IntentFilter filter ：注册广播接收器时对应过滤器
broadcasting ：表示是否正在处理对应的广播，避免重复处理

private static class ReceiverRecord {
    final IntentFilter filter;
    final BroadcastReceiver receiver;
    boolean broadcasting;

    ReceiverRecord(IntentFilter _filter, BroadcastReceiver _receiver){
        filter = _filter;
        receiver = _receiver;
    }

    @Override
    public String toString() {...}
}

`BroadcastRecord` 广播发送记录

ReceiverRecord 类存储了一个广播 Intent ，及其匹配的所有广播接收器记录列表。

Intent intent ：记录发送的广播
ArrayList<ReceiverRecord> receivers ：匹配该广播的所有接收器列表

private static class BroadcastRecord {
    final Intent intent;
    final ArrayList<ReceiverRecord> receivers;

    BroadcastRecord(Intent _intent, ArrayList<ReceiverRecord> _receivers){
        intent = _intent;
        receivers = _receivers;
    }
}

成员变量和构造方法

源码列表

// Application Context
private final Context mAppContext;
// 存储应用所有的广播接收器，及对应的广播过滤器列表
private final HashMap<BroadcastReceiver,ArrayList<IntentFilter>> mReceivers
        = new HashMap<BroadcastReceiver, ArrayList<IntentFilter>>();
// 存储应用所有的广播，及对应的广播接收器列表
private final HashMap<String, ArrayList<ReceiverRecord>> mActions
        = new HashMap<String, ArrayList<ReceiverRecord>>();
// 存储所有需要处理的广播
private final ArrayList<BroadcastRecord> mPendingBroadcasts
        = new ArrayList<BroadcastRecord>();

static final int MSG_EXEC_PENDING_BROADCASTS = 1;
// 使用 Handler 通信机制来处理应用内部的所有本地广播
private final Handler mHandler;

// 单例模式  
private static final Object mLock = new Object();
private static LocalBroadcastManager mInstance;

public static LocalBroadcastManager getInstance(Context context) {
    synchronized (mLock) {
        if (mInstance == null) {
            整个应用的 Context
            mInstance = new LocalBroadcastManager(
                context.getApplicationContext());
        }
        return mInstance;
    }
}

private LocalBroadcastManager(Context context) {
    mAppContext = context;
    // 应用主线程 Looper
    mHandler = new Handler(context.getMainLooper()) {

        @Override
        public void handleMessage(Message msg) {
            switch (msg.what) {
                case MSG_EXEC_PENDING_BROADCASTS:
                    executePendingBroadcasts();
                    break;
                default:
                    super.handleMessage(msg);
            }
        }
    };
}

重要成员变量

mAppContext ：整个应用的 Context ，避免组件退出引起内存泄露
mReceivers ：哈希表，存储应用所有的广播接收器，及每个广播接收器对应的广播过滤器列表（一个广播接收器可以监听多个广播）
mActions ：哈希表，存储应用所有的广播，及每条广播对应的广播接收器列表（一个广播可以有多个广播接收器响应）
mPendingBroadcasts ：数组列表，记录需要处理广播
mHandler ：使用 Handler 通信机制来处理应用内部的所有本地广播，Looper 对应的是应用主线程 Looper

单例模式

LocalBroadcastManager 的构造方法是私有的，使用单例模式来获取实例。构造方法中，实例化 Handler 并实现消息处理方法。（这里单例模式更推荐双检锁实现方式）

注册/取消注册广播

注册广播

注册广播的过程，就是一个数据存储过程。

根据注册的广播接收器和过滤器，新建 ReceiverRecord 对象
将广播接收器和过滤器，存储到 mReceivers 中
将广播过滤器的 Action 存储到 mActions 中，方便后续根据 Action 查找对应的广播接收器

public void registerReceiver(BroadcastReceiver receiver, 
        IntentFilter filter) {
    synchronized (mReceivers) {
        ReceiverRecord entry = new ReceiverRecord(filter, receiver);
        ArrayList<IntentFilter> filters = mReceivers.get(receiver);
        if (filters == null) {
            filters = new ArrayList<IntentFilter>(1);
            mReceivers.put(receiver, filters);
        }
        filters.add(filter);
        for (int i=0; i<filter.countActions(); i++) {
            String action = filter.getAction(i);
            ArrayList<ReceiverRecord> entries = mActions.get(action);
            if (entries == null) {
                entries = new ArrayList<ReceiverRecord>(1);
                mActions.put(action, entries);
            }
            entries.add(entry);
        }
    }
}

取消广播注册

取消广播注册，就是一个移除数据的过程。

从 mReceivers 中移除该广播接收器
从 mActions 中移除该广播接收器监听的广播过滤器列表中每个 Action

public void unregisterReceiver(BroadcastReceiver receiver) {
    synchronized (mReceivers) {
        ArrayList<IntentFilter> filters = mReceivers.remove(receiver);
        if (filters == null) {
            return;
        }
        for (int i=0; i<filters.size(); i++) {
            IntentFilter filter = filters.get(i);
            for (int j=0; j<filter.countActions(); j++) {
                String action = filter.getAction(j);
                ArrayList<ReceiverRecord> receivers=mActions.get(action);
                if (receivers != null) {
                    for (int k=0; k<receivers.size(); k++) {
                        if (receivers.get(k).receiver == receiver) {
                            receivers.remove(k);
                            k--;
                        }
                    }
                    if (receivers.size() <= 0) {
                        mActions.remove(action);
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

发送广播

广播的发送有两种：同步和异步发送；异步发送是通过 Handler.sendEmptyMessage 实现，而同步则是在异步的基础上，马上执行广播接收器响应（主要是在异步出现阻塞或者之前有过多任务时，才能体现出明显的效率）。

从 mActions 中查找广播对应的广播接收记录列表
每个广播接收记录中，如果不是正在被广播，则添加到 mPendingBroadcasts 中
Handler 发送消息，异步执行

public boolean sendBroadcast(Intent intent) {
    synchronized (mReceivers) {
        final String action = intent.getAction();
        final String type = intent.resolveTypeIfNeeded(
                mAppContext.getContentResolver());
        final Uri data = intent.getData();
        final String scheme = intent.getScheme();
        final Set<String> categories = intent.getCategories();
        ...
        ArrayList<ReceiverRecord> entries=mActions.get(intent.getAction());
        if (entries != null) {
            ...
            ArrayList<ReceiverRecord> receivers = null;
            for (int i=0; i<entries.size(); i++) {
                ReceiverRecord receiver = entries.get(i);
                ...
                if (receiver.broadcasting) {
                    ...
                    continue;
                }

                int match = receiver.filter.match(action, type, scheme, 
                        data, categories, "LocalBroadcastManager");
                if (match >= 0) {
                    ...
                    if (receivers == null) {
                        receivers = new ArrayList<ReceiverRecord>();
                    }
                    receivers.add(receiver);
                    receiver.broadcasting = true;
                } else {
                    ...
                }
            }

            if (receivers != null) {
              for (int i=0; i<receivers.size(); i++) {
                  receivers.get(i).broadcasting = false;
              }
              mPendingBroadcasts.add(new BroadcastRecord(intent,receivers));
              if (!mHandler.hasMessages(MSG_EXEC_PENDING_BROADCASTS)) {
                  mHandler.sendEmptyMessage(MSG_EXEC_PENDING_BROADCASTS);
              }
              return true;
            }
        }
    }
    return false;
}

public void sendBroadcastSync(Intent intent) {
    if (sendBroadcast(intent)) {
        executePendingBroadcasts();
    }
}

sendBroadcastSync 同步广播，如果有广播在排队处理，直接调用广播执行方法 executePendingBroadcasts ；如果广播队列并没有等待，效率区别不大。

响应广播

不管是同步广播还是异步广播，最终响应执行都是调用 executePendingBroadcasts 方法。主要功能是：从 mPendingBroadcasts 中逐个取出广播接收器，响应 BroadcastReceiver.onReceive 回调方法。

private void executePendingBroadcasts() {
    while (true) {
        BroadcastRecord[] brs = null;
        synchronized (mReceivers) {
            final int N = mPendingBroadcasts.size();
            if (N <= 0) {
                return;
            }
            brs = new BroadcastRecord[N];
            mPendingBroadcasts.toArray(brs);
            mPendingBroadcasts.clear();
        }
        for (int i=0; i<brs.length; i++) {
            BroadcastRecord br = brs[i];
            for (int j=0; j<br.receivers.size(); j++) {
                br.receivers.get(j).receiver.
                    onReceive(mAppContext, br.intent);
            }
        }
    }
}

示例

在 Activity 中注册一个广播接收器，在 Services 后台线程中发送本地广播，形成线程间本地广播通信。

广播注册/取消注册

// LocalBroadcastActivity.java

private LocalBroadcastManager mLocalBroadcastManager = null;
private boolean mRegistered;
private BroadcastReceiver mReceiver = new BroadcastReceiver() {
    @Override
    public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
        if (intent != null){
            String response = intent.getStringExtra("key");
            Log.d(TAG, "onReceive: response: " + response);
        }
    }
};

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_local_broadcast);
    mLocalBroadcastManager =
            LocalBroadcastManager.getInstance(this);
}

@Override
protected void onStart() {
    super.onStart();
    IntentFilter intentFilter = new IntentFilter(ACTION_RESPONSE);
    mLocalBroadcastManager.registerReceiver(mReceiver, intentFilter);
    mRegistered = true;
}

@Override
protected void onStop() {
    super.onStop();
    if (mRegistered){
        mRegistered = false;
        mLocalBroadcastManager.unregisterReceiver(mReceiver);
        Log.d(TAG, "onStop: mLocalBroadcastManager.unregisterReceiver");
    }
}

广播发送

// LocalBroadcastService.java
private void doLongWork(final String value){
    new Thread(new Runnable() {
        @Override
        public void run() {
            Log.d(TAG, "run: sleep...");
            try {
                Thread.sleep(2000);
            } catch (InterruptedException e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
            Intent intent = new Intent(ACTION_RESPONSE);
            intent.putExtra("key", "response");
            LocalBroadcastManager.getInstance(this).sendBroadcast(intent);
        }
    }).start();
}

小结

本地广播的三个特点：

数据只会在当前应用中广播，不会传递到其他应用（甚至当前应用的其他进程），确保数据安全
其他应用的广播不会发送到当前应用中，不用担心安全漏洞
不用通过系统 AMS 全局管理广播，而是本地保存数据，广播更高效

另外：本地广播只支持动态注册的方式。
