App里面有几个context？

开启掘金成长之旅！这是我参与「掘金日新计划 · 12 月更文挑战」的第34天，点击查看活动详情

1.Context的继承关系

想要弄清楚这个问题，我们得先搞清楚Context的继承关系，如下图所示 Context是一个抽象类，应用里面的Application、service和Activity均是其子类。而对于ContextWrapper来说，所有Context的具体实现均交由ContextImpl，这里用到了桥接模式。

public class ContextWrapper extends Context {
    Context mBase;//就是ContextImpl
    ......

    protected void attachBaseContext(Context base) {
        if (mBase != null) {
            throw new IllegalStateException("Base context already set");
        }
        mBase = base;
    }
    
    @Override
    public AssetManager getAssets() {
        return mBase.getAssets();
    }

    @Override
    public Resources getResources() {
        return mBase.getResources();
    }

    @Override
    public PackageManager getPackageManager() {
        return mBase.getPackageManager();
    }

    @Override
    public ContentResolver getContentResolver() {
        return mBase.getContentResolver();
    }
   .....
}

我们来看下几个子类的具体实现

1.1 Application

在注释1处创建了ContextImpl，注释2处调用newApplication，newApplication会调用attach函数，将ContextImpl attach到Application

public Application makeApplication(boolean forceDefaultAppClass,
            Instrumentation instrumentation) {
        if (mApplication != null) {
            return mApplication;
        }

        Trace.traceBegin(Trace.TRACE_TAG_ACTIVITY_MANAGER, "makeApplication");

        Application app = null;

        String appClass = mApplicationInfo.className;
        if (forceDefaultAppClass || (appClass == null)) {
            appClass = "android.app.Application";
        }

        try {
            java.lang.ClassLoader cl = getClassLoader();
            if (!mPackageName.equals("android")) {
                Trace.traceBegin(Trace.TRACE_TAG_ACTIVITY_MANAGER,
                        "initializeJavaContextClassLoader");
                initializeJavaContextClassLoader();
                Trace.traceEnd(Trace.TRACE_TAG_ACTIVITY_MANAGER);
            }
            //1.创建ContextImpl
            ContextImpl appContext = ContextImpl.createAppContext(mActivityThread, this);
            //2.newApplication里面会调用attach函数
            app = mActivityThread.mInstrumentation.newApplication(
                    cl, appClass, appContext);
            appContext.setOuterContext(app);
        } catch (Exception e) {
            if (!mActivityThread.mInstrumentation.onException(app, e)) {
                Trace.traceEnd(Trace.TRACE_TAG_ACTIVITY_MANAGER);
                throw new RuntimeException(
                    "Unable to instantiate application " + appClass
                    + ": " + e.toString(), e);
            }
        }
        mActivityThread.mAllApplications.add(app);
        mApplication = app;

        if (instrumentation != null) {
            try {
                instrumentation.callApplicationOnCreate(app);
            } catch (Exception e) {
                if (!instrumentation.onException(app, e)) {
                    Trace.traceEnd(Trace.TRACE_TAG_ACTIVITY_MANAGER);
                    throw new RuntimeException(
                        "Unable to create application " + app.getClass().getName()
                        + ": " + e.toString(), e);
                }
            }
        }

        // Rewrite the R 'constants' for all library apks.
        SparseArray<String> packageIdentifiers = getAssets().getAssignedPackageIdentifiers();
        final int N = packageIdentifiers.size();
        for (int i = 0; i < N; i++) {
            final int id = packageIdentifiers.keyAt(i);
            if (id == 0x01 || id == 0x7f) {
                continue;
            }

            rewriteRValues(getClassLoader(), packageIdentifiers.valueAt(i), id);
        }

        Trace.traceEnd(Trace.TRACE_TAG_ACTIVITY_MANAGER);

        return app;
    }

1.2 Activity

如以下代码所示，创建Activity，在注释1处创建了ContextImpl，然后在注释2处attach了，activity的attach函数最终会调用attachBaseContext。

    private Activity performLaunchActivity(ActivityClientRecord r, Intent customIntent) {
        ActivityInfo aInfo = r.activityInfo;
        if (r.packageInfo == null) {
            r.packageInfo = getPackageInfo(aInfo.applicationInfo, r.compatInfo,
                    Context.CONTEXT_INCLUDE_CODE);
        }

        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);
        }

        //1.创建了一个ContextImpl
        ContextImpl appContext = createBaseContextForActivity(r);
        Activity activity = null;
        try {
            java.lang.ClassLoader cl = appContext.getClassLoader();
            activity = mInstrumentation.newActivity(
                    cl, component.getClassName(), r.intent);
            StrictMode.incrementExpectedActivityCount(activity.getClass());
            r.intent.setExtrasClassLoader(cl);
            r.intent.prepareToEnterProcess();
            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) {
                CharSequence title = r.activityInfo.loadLabel(appContext.getPackageManager());
                Configuration config = new Configuration(mCompatConfiguration);
                if (r.overrideConfig != null) {
                    config.updateFrom(r.overrideConfig);
                }
                if (DEBUG_CONFIGURATION) Slog.v(TAG, "Launching activity "
                        + r.activityInfo.name + " with config " + config);
                Window window = null;
                if (r.mPendingRemoveWindow != null && r.mPreserveWindow) {
                    window = r.mPendingRemoveWindow;
                    r.mPendingRemoveWindow = null;
                    r.mPendingRemoveWindowManager = null;
                }
                appContext.setOuterContext(activity);
                //2.将ContextImpl attach到activity里面
                activity.attach(appContext, this, getInstrumentation(), r.token,
                        r.ident, app, r.intent, r.activityInfo, title, r.parent,
                        r.embeddedID, r.lastNonConfigurationInstances, config,
                        r.referrer, r.voiceInteractor, window, r.configCallback);

                if (customIntent != null) {
                    activity.mIntent = customIntent;
                }
                r.lastNonConfigurationInstances = null;
                checkAndBlockForNetworkAccess();
                activity.mStartedActivity = false;
                int theme = r.activityInfo.getThemeResource();
                if (theme != 0) {
                    activity.setTheme(theme);
                }

                activity.mCalled = false;
                if (r.isPersistable()) {
                    mInstrumentation.callActivityOnCreate(activity, r.state, r.persistentState);
                } else {
                    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.setState(ON_CREATE);

            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;
    }

1.3 Service

如以下代码所示，attach的过程和activity类似

private void handleCreateService(CreateServiceData data) {
        // If we are getting ready to gc after going to the background, well
        // we are back active so skip it.
        unscheduleGcIdler();

        LoadedApk packageInfo = getPackageInfoNoCheck(
                data.info.applicationInfo, data.compatInfo);
        Service service = null;
        try {
            java.lang.ClassLoader cl = packageInfo.getClassLoader();
            service = packageInfo.getAppFactory()
                    .instantiateService(cl, data.info.name, data.intent);
        } catch (Exception e) {
            if (!mInstrumentation.onException(service, e)) {
                throw new RuntimeException(
                    "Unable to instantiate service " + data.info.name
                    + ": " + e.toString(), e);
            }
        }

        try {
            if (localLOGV) Slog.v(TAG, "Creating service " + data.info.name);
            //1.创建ContextImpl
            ContextImpl context = ContextImpl.createAppContext(this, packageInfo);
            context.setOuterContext(service);

            Application app = packageInfo.makeApplication(false, mInstrumentation);
            //2.将ContextImpl attach到service里面
            service.attach(context, this, data.info.name, data.token, app,
                    ActivityManager.getService());
            service.onCreate();
            mServices.put(data.token, service);
            try {
                ActivityManager.getService().serviceDoneExecuting(
                        data.token, SERVICE_DONE_EXECUTING_ANON, 0, 0);
            } catch (RemoteException e) {
                throw e.rethrowFromSystemServer();
            }
        } catch (Exception e) {
            if (!mInstrumentation.onException(service, e)) {
                throw new RuntimeException(
                    "Unable to create service " + data.info.name
                    + ": " + e.toString(), e);
            }
        }
    }

2.其他的

还有其他的组件如，BroadCastReciver和ContentProvider，均不继承自Context，他们所使用的Context都是在创建的时候传递进去的。

2.1 BroadCastReciver

在注释2处将Context传递给BroadcastReciver，我们可以看到在注释1处，获取到了Application的BaseContext，最后在OnReceive里面传递的是context.getReceiverRestrictedContext()。

private void handleReceiver(ReceiverData data) {
        // If we are getting ready to gc after going to the background, well
        // we are back active so skip it.
        unscheduleGcIdler();

        String component = data.intent.getComponent().getClassName();

        LoadedApk packageInfo = getPackageInfoNoCheck(
                data.info.applicationInfo, data.compatInfo);

        IActivityManager mgr = ActivityManager.getService();

        Application app;
        BroadcastReceiver receiver;
        ContextImpl context;
        try {
            app = packageInfo.makeApplication(false, mInstrumentation);
            //1.获取Application的BaseContext
            context = (ContextImpl) app.getBaseContext();
            if (data.info.splitName != null) {
                context = (ContextImpl) context.createContextForSplit(data.info.splitName);
            }
            java.lang.ClassLoader cl = context.getClassLoader();
            data.intent.setExtrasClassLoader(cl);
            data.intent.prepareToEnterProcess();
            data.setExtrasClassLoader(cl);
            receiver = packageInfo.getAppFactory()
                    .instantiateReceiver(cl, data.info.name, data.intent);
        } catch (Exception e) {
            if (DEBUG_BROADCAST) Slog.i(TAG,
                    "Finishing failed broadcast to " + data.intent.getComponent());
            data.sendFinished(mgr);
            throw new RuntimeException(
                "Unable to instantiate receiver " + component
                + ": " + e.toString(), e);
        }

        try {
            if (localLOGV) Slog.v(
                TAG, "Performing receive of " + data.intent
                + ": app=" + app
                + ", appName=" + app.getPackageName()
                + ", pkg=" + packageInfo.getPackageName()
                + ", comp=" + data.intent.getComponent().toShortString()
                + ", dir=" + packageInfo.getAppDir());

            sCurrentBroadcastIntent.set(data.intent);
            receiver.setPendingResult(data);
            //2.这里传递了context
            receiver.onReceive(context.getReceiverRestrictedContext(),
                    data.intent);
        } catch (Exception e) {
            if (DEBUG_BROADCAST) Slog.i(TAG,
                    "Finishing failed broadcast to " + data.intent.getComponent());
            data.sendFinished(mgr);
            if (!mInstrumentation.onException(receiver, e)) {
                throw new RuntimeException(
                    "Unable to start receiver " + component
                    + ": " + e.toString(), e);
            }
        } finally {
            sCurrentBroadcastIntent.set(null);
        }

        if (receiver.getPendingResult() != null) {
            data.finish();
        }
    }

2.2 ContentProvider

在注释1处，将Context传递给ContentProvider

private ContentProviderHolder installProvider(Context context,
            ContentProviderHolder holder, ProviderInfo info,
            boolean noisy, boolean noReleaseNeeded, boolean stable) {
        ContentProvider localProvider = null;
        IContentProvider provider;
        if (holder == null || holder.provider == null) {
            if (DEBUG_PROVIDER || noisy) {
                Slog.d(TAG, "Loading provider " + info.authority + ": "
                        + info.name);
            }
            Context c = null;
            ApplicationInfo ai = info.applicationInfo;
            if (context.getPackageName().equals(ai.packageName)) {
                c = context;
            } else if (mInitialApplication != null &&
                    mInitialApplication.getPackageName().equals(ai.packageName)) {
                c = mInitialApplication;
            } else {
                try {
                    c = context.createPackageContext(ai.packageName,
                            Context.CONTEXT_INCLUDE_CODE);
                } catch (PackageManager.NameNotFoundException e) {
                    // Ignore
                }
            }
            if (c == null) {
                Slog.w(TAG, "Unable to get context for package " +
                      ai.packageName +
                      " while loading content provider " +
                      info.name);
                return null;
            }

            if (info.splitName != null) {
                try {
                    c = c.createContextForSplit(info.splitName);
                } catch (NameNotFoundException e) {
                    throw new RuntimeException(e);
                }
            }

            try {
                final java.lang.ClassLoader cl = c.getClassLoader();
                LoadedApk packageInfo = peekPackageInfo(ai.packageName, true);
                if (packageInfo == null) {
                    // System startup case.
                    packageInfo = getSystemContext().mPackageInfo;
                }
                localProvider = packageInfo.getAppFactory()
                        .instantiateProvider(cl, info.name);
                provider = localProvider.getIContentProvider();
                if (provider == null) {
                    Slog.e(TAG, "Failed to instantiate class " +
                          info.name + " from sourceDir " +
                          info.applicationInfo.sourceDir);
                    return null;
                }
                if (DEBUG_PROVIDER) Slog.v(
                    TAG, "Instantiating local provider " + info.name);
                // XXX Need to create the correct context for this provider.
                //1.attachInfo将Context传递给ContentProvider
                localProvider.attachInfo(c, info);
            } catch (java.lang.Exception e) {
