為什么寫這篇文章呢？前段時間在研究telephony時，一直沒有在framework下發(fā)現(xiàn)對telephony的初始化(PhoneFactory.java中的makeDefaultPhones函數(shù))的調(diào)用。結(jié)果全局搜索之后發(fā)現(xiàn)在application PhoneApp(packages/apps/Phone)中調(diào)用了。但是application PhoneApp既沒有被Broadcast喚醒，也沒有被其他service調(diào)用，那么是android是通過什么方式來啟動PhoneApp，所以就發(fā)現(xiàn)了屬性android:persistent。

?

??? 在AndroidManifest.xml定義中，application有這么一個屬性android:persistent，根據(jù)字面意思來理解就是說該應(yīng)用是可持久的，也即是常駐的應(yīng)用。其實就是這么個理解，被android:persistent修飾的應(yīng)用會在系統(tǒng)啟動之后被AM啟動。

?

??? AM首先去PM(PackageManagerService)中去查找設(shè)置了android:persistent的應(yīng)用。

?

??? 假如該被android:persistent修飾的應(yīng)用此時并未運行的話，那么AM將調(diào)用startProcessLocked啟動該app，關(guān)于startProcessLocked不再描述，另外一篇文章《How to start a new process for Android?》中做了詳細的介紹。

?

??? app的啟動過程就是啟動app所在的package對應(yīng)的進程。

?

??? 下面介紹app所在的package對應(yīng)的進程啟動完成之后，app是如何被create的。

?

??? 從文章《How to start a new process for Android?》中可知，zygote在創(chuàng)建新的進程均會啟動它的mainThread android.app.ActivityThread，因此我們從ActivityThread的main函數(shù)中接著分析app的create過程。

??? 在main中有下面這個操作

[c-sharp] view plaincopyprint?

thread.attach(false);??

thread.attach(false);

?

??? 在attach過程中，ActivityThread會將對應(yīng)的application attach到AM中去，交與AM去管理。這里需要注意一個變量

[c-sharp] view plaincopyprint?

final?ApplicationThread?mAppThread?=?new?ApplicationThread();??

final ApplicationThread mAppThread = new ApplicationThread();

?

??? mAppThread是一個ApplicationThread對象，mAppThread可以看作是當(dāng)前進程主線程的核心，它負責(zé)處理本進程與其他進程(主要是AM)之間的通信，同時通過attachApplication將mAppThread的代理Binder傳遞給AM。

[c-sharp] view plaincopyprint?

private?final?void?attach(boolean?system)?{??

????????sThreadLocal.set(this);??

????????mSystemThread?=?system;??

????????if?(!system)?{??

????????????ViewRoot.addFirstDrawHandler(new?Runnable()?{??

????????????????public?void?run()?{??

????????????????????ensureJitEnabled();??

????????????????}??

????????????});??

????????????android.ddm.DdmHandleAppName.setAppName("<pre-initialized>");??

????????????RuntimeInit.setApplicationObject(mAppThread.asBinder());??

????????????IActivityManager?mgr?=?ActivityManagerNative.getDefault();??

????????????try?{??

????????????????mgr.attachApplication(mAppThread);??

????????????}?catch?(RemoteException?ex)?{??

????????????}??

????????}??

????}??

private final void attach(boolean system) {sThreadLocal.set(this);mSystemThread = system;if (!system) {ViewRoot.addFirstDrawHandler(new Runnable() {public void run() {ensureJitEnabled();}});android.ddm.DdmHandleAppName.setAppName("<pre-initialized>");RuntimeInit.setApplicationObject(mAppThread.asBinder());IActivityManager mgr = ActivityManagerNative.getDefault();try {mgr.attachApplication(mAppThread);} catch (RemoteException ex) {}}}

?

?

??? 上面的attach代碼中，我們順著IPC調(diào)用AM的attachApplication過程再往下看。
??? 在該過程中，AM調(diào)用到了IPC通信調(diào)用mAppThread的bindApplication；

?

?

[c-sharp] view plaincopyprint?

private?final?boolean?attachApplicationLocked(IApplicationThread?thread,??

????????????int?pid)?{??

??????

????????????thread.bindApplication(processName,?app.instrumentationInfo?!=?null??

??????????????????????app.instrumentationInfo?:?app.info,?providers,??

????????????????????app.instrumentationClass,?app.instrumentationProfileFile,??

????????????????????app.instrumentationArguments,?app.instrumentationWatcher,?testMode,???

????????????????????isRestrictedBackupMode?||?!normalMode,??

????????????????????mConfiguration,?getCommonServicesLocked());??

????????????updateLruProcessLocked(app,?false,?true);??

????????????app.lastRequestedGc?=?app.lastLowMemory?=?SystemClock.uptimeMillis();??

}??

private final boolean attachApplicationLocked(IApplicationThread thread,int pid) {thread.bindApplication(processName, app.instrumentationInfo != null? app.instrumentationInfo : app.info, providers,app.instrumentationClass, app.instrumentationProfileFile,app.instrumentationArguments, app.instrumentationWatcher, testMode, isRestrictedBackupMode || !normalMode,mConfiguration, getCommonServicesLocked());updateLruProcessLocked(app, false, true);app.lastRequestedGc = app.lastLowMemory = SystemClock.uptimeMillis(); }

?

??? mAppThread的bindApplication再通過消息機制向ActivityThread自身維護的handler發(fā)送BIND_APPLICATION消息。下面看看ActivityThread自身維護的handler對消息BIND_APPLICATION的處理，最終會調(diào)用到handleBindApplication函數(shù)
??? 你會發(fā)現(xiàn)在handleBindApplication函數(shù)中有這么一句

[c-sharp] view plaincopyprint?

mInstrumentation.callApplicationOnCreate(app);??

mInstrumentation.callApplicationOnCreate(app); ????
??? 我們最終在繞了好大一圈之后，調(diào)用了app的onCreate函數(shù)來啟動這個application

?
