LayoutInflater源码浅析

前言

每天都在使用LayoutInflater,是否了解过其内部实现呢？今天，就来学习下，是如何从xml文件加成成View的。

LayoutInflater#inflate

不管是通过什么方式去加载的，最后都会调用inflate(XmlPullParser parser, @Nullable ViewGroup root, boolean attachToRoot)这个方法。这个方法的代码如下：

public View inflate(XmlPullParser parser, @Nullable ViewGroup root, boolean attachToRoot) {
    synchronized (mConstructorArgs) {
        Trace.traceBegin(Trace.TRACE_TAG_VIEW, "inflate");

        final Context inflaterContext = mContext;
        final AttributeSet attrs = Xml.asAttributeSet(parser);
        Context lastContext = (Context) mConstructorArgs[0];
        mConstructorArgs[0] = inflaterContext;
        View result = root;

        try {
            // Look for the root node.
            int type;
            while ((type = parser.next()) != XmlPullParser.START_TAG &&
                    type != XmlPullParser.END_DOCUMENT) {
                // Empty
            }

            if (type != XmlPullParser.START_TAG) {
                throw new InflateException(parser.getPositionDescription()
                        + ": No start tag found!");
            }

            final String name = parser.getName();
            
            if (DEBUG) {
                System.out.println("**************************");
                System.out.println("Creating root view: "
                        + name);
                System.out.println("**************************");
            }

            if (TAG_MERGE.equals(name)) {
                if (root == null || !attachToRoot) {
                    throw new InflateException("<merge /> can be used only with a valid "
                            + "ViewGroup root and attachToRoot=true");
                }

                rInflate(parser, root, inflaterContext, attrs, false);
            } else {
                // Temp is the root view that was found in the xml
                final View temp = createViewFromTag(root, name, inflaterContext, attrs);

                ViewGroup.LayoutParams params = null;

                if (root != null) {
                    if (DEBUG) {
                        System.out.println("Creating params from root: " +
                                root);
                    }
                    // Create layout params that match root, if supplied
                    params = root.generateLayoutParams(attrs);
                    if (!attachToRoot) {
                        // Set the layout params for temp if we are not
                        // attaching. (If we are, we use addView, below)
                        temp.setLayoutParams(params);
                    }
                }

                if (DEBUG) {
                    System.out.println("-----> start inflating children");
                }

                // Inflate all children under temp against its context.
                rInflateChildren(parser, temp, attrs, true);

                if (DEBUG) {
                    System.out.println("-----> done inflating children");
                }

                // We are supposed to attach all the views we found (int temp)
                // to root. Do that now.
                if (root != null && attachToRoot) {
                    root.addView(temp, params);
                }

                // Decide whether to return the root that was passed in or the
                // top view found in xml.
                if (root == null || !attachToRoot) {
                    result = temp;
                }
            }

        } catch (XmlPullParserException e) {
            InflateException ex = new InflateException(e.getMessage());
            ex.initCause(e);
            throw ex;
        } catch (Exception e) {
            InflateException ex = new InflateException(
                    parser.getPositionDescription()
                            + ": " + e.getMessage());
            ex.initCause(e);
            throw ex;
        } finally {
            // Don't retain static reference on context.
            mConstructorArgs[0] = lastContext;
            mConstructorArgs[1] = null;
        }

        Trace.traceEnd(Trace.TRACE_TAG_VIEW);

        return result;
    }
}

代码较长，主要逻辑如下：

• 从XmlPullParser中的到AttributeSet，设置View的构造函数的第一个参数context
• 判断标签类型
  • merge标签，用rInflate进行解析加载
  • 其他，通过createViewFromTag方法，创建xml文件的根节点的view，然后通过rInflateChildren方法解析根view中包含的子view，并根据参数将其add到root view中。

逻辑还是比较清晰的，从上面的步骤中，我们能知道几个重要的方法，分别是:

• createViewFromTag 创建root view
• rInflate解析merge标签的view
• rInflateChildren解析ViewGroup中的子View

LayoutInflater#createViewFromTag

那么，我们先来看下，root view是如何创建出来的。代码如下：

View createViewFromTag(View parent, String name, Context context, AttributeSet attrs,
        boolean ignoreThemeAttr) {
    if (name.equals("view")) {
        name = attrs.getAttributeValue(null, "class");
    }

    // Apply a theme wrapper, if allowed and one is specified.
    if (!ignoreThemeAttr) {
        final TypedArray ta = context.obtainStyledAttributes(attrs, ATTRS_THEME);
        final int themeResId = ta.getResourceId(0, 0);
        if (themeResId != 0) {
            context = new ContextThemeWrapper(context, themeResId);
        }
        ta.recycle();
    }

    if (name.equals(TAG_1995)) {
        // Let's party like it's 1995!
        return new BlinkLayout(context, attrs);
    }

    try {
        View view;
        if (mFactory2 != null) {
            view = mFactory2.onCreateView(parent, name, context, attrs);
        } else if (mFactory != null) {
            view = mFactory.onCreateView(name, context, attrs);
        } else {
            view = null;
        }

        if (view == null && mPrivateFactory != null) {
            view = mPrivateFactory.onCreateView(parent, name, context, attrs);
        }

        if (view == null) {
            final Object lastContext = mConstructorArgs[0];
            mConstructorArgs[0] = context;
            try {
                if (-1 == name.indexOf('.')) {
                    view = onCreateView(parent, name, attrs);
                } else {
                    view = createView(name, null, attrs);
                }
            } finally {
                mConstructorArgs[0] = lastContext;
            }
        }

        return view;
    } catch (InflateException e) {
        throw e;

    } catch (ClassNotFoundException e) {
        final InflateException ie = new InflateException(attrs.getPositionDescription()
                + ": Error inflating class " + name);
        ie.initCause(e);
        throw ie;

    } catch (Exception e) {
        final InflateException ie = new InflateException(attrs.getPositionDescription()
                + ": Error inflating class " + name);
        ie.initCause(e);
        throw ie;
    }
}

• 首先获取View的name
• 根据参数，应用主题
• TAG_1995?这个没怎么看懂
• 根据mFactory2，mFactory，mPrivateFactory等是否设置过，来通过这些去加载View，我们经常在一些换肤框架中能见到。
• 如果都没有的话，就判断name中是否包含.，为啥要这样呢？就是根据玩这个路径去加载类，然后构造View。
• 通过代码能够发现，onCreateView方法内部也会调用createView方法，不过会加android.view.拼成完整的路径。

LayoutInflater#createView

系统通过这个方法来构造View对象，我们就看下它的具体实现。

public final View createView(String name, String prefix, AttributeSet attrs)
        throws ClassNotFoundException, InflateException {
    Constructor<? extends View> constructor = sConstructorMap.get(name);
    Class<? extends View> clazz = null;

    try {
        Trace.traceBegin(Trace.TRACE_TAG_VIEW, name);

        if (constructor == null) {
            // Class not found in the cache, see if it's real, and try to add it
            clazz = mContext.getClassLoader().loadClass(
                    prefix != null ? (prefix + name) : name).asSubclass(View.class);
            
            if (mFilter != null && clazz != null) {
                boolean allowed = mFilter.onLoadClass(clazz);
                if (!allowed) {
                    failNotAllowed(name, prefix, attrs);
                }
            }
            constructor = clazz.getConstructor(mConstructorSignature);
            constructor.setAccessible(true);
            sConstructorMap.put(name, constructor);
        } else {
            // If we have a filter, apply it to cached constructor
            if (mFilter != null) {
                // Have we seen this name before?
                Boolean allowedState = mFilterMap.get(name);
                if (allowedState == null) {
                    // New class -- remember whether it is allowed
                    clazz = mContext.getClassLoader().loadClass(
                            prefix != null ? (prefix + name) : name).asSubclass(View.class);
                    
                    boolean allowed = clazz != null && mFilter.onLoadClass(clazz);
                    mFilterMap.put(name, allowed);
                    if (!allowed) {
                        failNotAllowed(name, prefix, attrs);
                    }
                } else if (allowedState.equals(Boolean.FALSE)) {
                    failNotAllowed(name, prefix, attrs);
                }
            }
        }

        Object[] args = mConstructorArgs;
        args[1] = attrs;

        final View view = constructor.newInstance(args);
        if (view instanceof ViewStub) {
            // Use the same context when inflating ViewStub later.
            final ViewStub viewStub = (ViewStub) view;
            viewStub.setLayoutInflater(cloneInContext((Context) args[0]));
        }
        return view;

    } catch (NoSuchMethodException e) {
        InflateException ie = new InflateException(attrs.getPositionDescription()
                + ": Error inflating class "
                + (prefix != null ? (prefix + name) : name));
        ie.initCause(e);
        throw ie;

    } catch (ClassCastException e) {
        // If loaded class is not a View subclass
        InflateException ie = new InflateException(attrs.getPositionDescription()
                + ": Class is not a View "
                + (prefix != null ? (prefix + name) : name));
        ie.initCause(e);
        throw ie;
    } catch (ClassNotFoundException e) {
        // If loadClass fails, we should propagate the exception.
        throw e;
    } catch (Exception e) {
        InflateException ie = new InflateException(attrs.getPositionDescription()
                + ": Error inflating class "
                + (clazz == null ? "<unknown>" : clazz.getName()));
        ie.initCause(e);
        throw ie;
    } finally {
        Trace.traceEnd(Trace.TRACE_TAG_VIEW);
    }
}

代码虽然长，但是从逻辑上分为两个部分。

• 已经缓存过构造函数
• 未缓存过构造函数

在学习源码的过程中，我们经常能见到这种内存缓存的设计，以空间换时间的方法来提升效率。这个技能，我们需要get到。

这里我们只看没有缓存过的部分。逻辑如下：

• 通过classloader加载Class
• 通过参数获取对应的构造方法，并进行缓存
• 通过构造方法构造View对象
• 如果是ViewStub的话，因为这里是按需加载，所以我们需要将这个Context对象设置给他。

通过上面一系列方法就成功的根据xml文件构建出来root view了。当然普通view的构造过程也是一样的。

LayoutInflater#rInflate

    void rInflate(XmlPullParser parser, View parent, Context context,
            AttributeSet attrs, boolean finishInflate) throws XmlPullParserException, IOException {

        final int depth = parser.getDepth();
        int type;

        while (((type = parser.next()) != XmlPullParser.END_TAG ||
                parser.getDepth() > depth) && type != XmlPullParser.END_DOCUMENT) {

            if (type != XmlPullParser.START_TAG) {
                continue;
            }

            final String name = parser.getName();
            
            if (TAG_REQUEST_FOCUS.equals(name)) {
                parseRequestFocus(parser, parent);
            } else if (TAG_TAG.equals(name)) {
                parseViewTag(parser, parent, attrs);
            } else if (TAG_INCLUDE.equals(name)) {
                if (parser.getDepth() == 0) {
                    throw new InflateException("<include /> cannot be the root element");
                }
                parseInclude(parser, context, parent, attrs);
            } else if (TAG_MERGE.equals(name)) {
                throw new InflateException("<merge /> must be the root element");
            } else {
                final View view = createViewFromTag(parent, name, context, attrs);
                final ViewGroup viewGroup = (ViewGroup) parent;
                final ViewGroup.LayoutParams params = viewGroup.generateLayoutParams(attrs);
                rInflateChildren(parser, view, attrs, true);
                viewGroup.addView(view, params);
            }
        }

        if (finishInflate) {
            parent.onFinishInflate();
        }
    }
```	
逻辑比较清晰，也比较简单。

* 根据标签类型，进行不同的操作
	* 如include，调用parseInclude去解析
	* 正常View，就调用createViewFromTag去构造View，并调用rInflateChildren去解析他的子View，并将这个view加入到他的父控件中。
	
### LayoutInflater#rInflateChildren

这个方法就更简单了。

final void rInflateChildren(XmlPullParser parser, View parent, AttributeSet attrs,
        boolean finishInflate) throws XmlPullParserException, IOException {
    rInflate(parser, parent, parent.getContext(), attrs, finishInflate);
}

```

这里调用rInflate去解析，略过

就这样，就从xml解析成View了。

剩下的一点东西

• Filter
• Factory
• Factory2

上面的几个接口，允许我们去做一些过滤操作，或者我们控制下View的构造过程。

总结

逻辑上很清晰，不知道大家有没有学习到呢？
