Question

ContentObserver的文档对我来说并不清楚。哪个线程是ContentObserver的onChange？

我检查过，它不是你创建观察者的线程。看起来它是发送通知的线程，但我没有找到有关它的文档。

Answer 1

执行Thread方法的ContentObserver.onChange()是ContentObserver constructor＆＃39; s Handler＆＃39; Looper＆＃39 ; s Thead。

例如，要让在主UI线程上运行，代码可能如下所示：

// returns the applications main looper (which runs on the application's 
// main UI thread)
Looper looper = Looper.getMainLooper();

// creates the handler using the passed looper
Handler handler = new Handler(looper);

// creates the content observer which handles onChange on the UI thread
ContentObserver observer = new MyContentObserver(handler);

或者，要让在新的工作线程上运行，代码可能如下所示：

// creates and starts a new thread set up as a looper
HandlerThread thread = new HandlerThread("MyHandlerThread");
thread.start();

// creates the handler using the passed looper
Handler handler = new Handler(thread.getLooper());

// creates the content observer which handles onChange on a worker thread
ContentObserver observer = new MyContentObserver(handler);

或者甚至让在当前线程上运行，代码可能如下所示。一般情况下，这不是您想要的，因为循环的Thread无法执行其他操作，因为Looper.loop()是阻止调用。尽管如此：

// prepares the looper of the current thread
Looper.prepare();

// creates a handler for the current thread's looper.
Handler handler = new Handler();

// creates the content observer which handles onChange on this thread
ContentObserver observer = new MyContentObserver(handler);

// starts the current thread's looper (blocking call because it's 
// looping, and handling messages forever). the content observer will
// only execute the onChange method while the thread is looping; 
// interrupting Looper.loop() would "break" the content observer.
Looper.loop();

为了确保在UI线程上调用onChange，请在注册时使用正确的处理程序：

Handler handler = new Handler(Looper.getMainLooper());
ContentObserver observer = new MyContentObserver(handler);

这个老问题似乎涉及到你的问题：

看起来你应该创建一个新的线程，在自己的服务中运行，其中将调用onChange方法。
