不知道你們有沒有和我同樣,之前作項目或者練習的時候一直都是用Service來處理後臺耗時操做,卻不多注意到還有個IntentService,前段時間準備面試的時候看到了一篇關於IntentService的解釋,發現了它相對於Service來講有不少更加方便之處,今天在這裏稍微來總結下個人心得。 linux
首先IntentService是繼承自Service的,那咱們先看看Service的官方介紹,這裏列出兩點比較重要的地方: 面試
1.A Service is not a separate process. The Service object itself does not imply it is running in its own process; unless otherwise specified, it runs in the same process as the application it is part of. express
2.A Service is not a thread. It is not a means itself to do work off of the main thread (to avoid Application Not Responding errors). 網絡
稍微翻一下(英文水平通常) app
1.Service不是一個單獨的進程 ,它和應用程序在同一個進程中。 less
2.Service不是一個線程,因此咱們應該避免在Service裏面進行耗時的操做 異步
關於第二點我想說下,不知道不少網上的文章都把耗時的操做直接放在Service的onStart方法中,並且沒有強調這樣會出現Application Not Responding!但願個人文章能幫你們認清這個誤區(Service不是一個線程,不能直接處理耗時的操做)。 async
有人確定會問,那麼爲何我不直接用Thread而要用Service呢?關於這個,你們能夠網上搜搜,這裏不過多解釋。有一點須要強調,若是有耗時操做在Service裏,就必須開啓一個單獨的線程來處理!!!這點必定要銘記在心。 ide
IntentService相對於Service來講,有幾個很是有用的優勢,首先咱們看看官方文檔的說明: oop
IntentService is a base class for Services that handle asynchronous requests (expressed as Intents) on demand. Clients send requests throughstartService(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.
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 onHandleIntent(Intent). IntentService will receive the Intents, launch a worker thread, and stop the service as appropriate.
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.
