在上一篇中，讲到由ActivityThread启动activity了
ActivityThread即我们平时提到的主线程，上一篇中AMS处理启动activity的task和record信息后通过binder跨进程到应用当前线程继续启动activity
现在看ActivityThread的scheduleLaunchActivity()

@Override
    public final void scheduleLaunchActivity(Intent intent, IBinder token, int ident,
            ActivityInfo info, Configuration curConfig, Configuration overrideConfig,
            CompatibilityInfo compatInfo, String referrer, IVoiceInteractor voiceInteractor,
            int procState, Bundle state, PersistableBundle persistentState,
            List<ResultInfo> pendingResults, List<ReferrerIntent> pendingNewIntents,
            boolean notResumed, boolean isForward, ProfilerInfo profilerInfo) {
        //更新进程状态
        updateProcessState(procState, false);
        //创建ActivityClientRecord并赋值
        ActivityClientRecord r = new ActivityClientRecord();
        r.token = token;
        r.ident = ident;
        r.intent = intent;
        r.referrer = referrer;
        r.voiceInteractor = voiceInteractor;
        r.activityInfo = info;
        r.compatInfo = compatInfo;
        r.state = state;
        r.persistentState = persistentState;
        r.pendingResults = pendingResults;
        r.pendingIntents = pendingNewIntents;
        r.startsNotResumed = notResumed;
        r.isForward = isForward;
        r.profilerInfo = profilerInfo;
        r.overrideConfig = overrideConfig;
        updatePendingConfiguration(curConfig);
        //带着ActivityClientRecord由Handler启动Activity
        sendMessage(H.LAUNCH_ACTIVITY, r);
    }

接着看Handler

public void handleMessage(Message msg) {
        ...
        switch (msg.what) {
            case LAUNCH_ACTIVITY: {
                Trace.traceBegin(Trace.TRACE_TAG_ACTIVITY_MANAGER, "activityStart");
                //handler传递过来的ActivityClientRecord
                final ActivityClientRecord r = (ActivityClientRecord) msg.obj;
                //赋值LoadedApk
                r.packageInfo = getPackageInfoNoCheck(
                        r.activityInfo.applicationInfo, r.compatInfo);
                //继续启动activity
                handleLaunchActivity(r, null, "LAUNCH_ACTIVITY");
                Trace.traceEnd(Trace.TRACE_TAG_ACTIVITY_MANAGER);
            } break;

接着handleLaunchActivity()

private void handleLaunchActivity(ActivityClientRecord r, Intent customIntent, String reason) {
    //跳过后台执行gc
    unscheduleGcIdler();
    mSomeActivitiesChanged = true;
    if (r.profilerInfo != null) {
        mProfiler.setProfiler(r.profilerInfo);
        mProfiler.startProfiling();
    }
    // 确保执行最新的配置
    handleConfigurationChanged(null, null);
    if (localLOGV) Slog.v(
        TAG, "Handling launch of " + r);
    // 创建activity之前初始化WindowManagerGlobal,获取IWindowManger
    WindowManagerGlobal.initialize();
    //启动activity
    Activity a = performLaunchActivity(r, customIntent);
    //activity不为null
    if (a != null) {
        r.createdConfig = new Configuration(mConfiguration);
        reportSizeConfigurations(r);
        Bundle oldState = r.state;
        //恢复activity
        handleResumeActivity(r.token, false, r.isForward,
                !r.activity.mFinished && !r.startsNotResumed, r.lastProcessedSeq, reason);
        if (!r.activity.mFinished && r.startsNotResumed) {
            performPauseActivityIfNeeded(r, reason);
            //pre-Honeycomb apps需要保存初始状态以便再次创建
            if (r.isPreHoneycomb()) {
                r.state = oldState;
            }
        }
    } else {
        //不管什么原因出错调用AMS销毁activity
        try {
            ActivityManager.getService()
                .finishActivity(r.token, Activity.RESULT_CANCELED, null,
                        Activity.DONT_FINISH_TASK_WITH_ACTIVITY);
        } catch (RemoteException ex) {
            throw ex.rethrowFromSystemServer();
        }
    }
}

接着performLaunchActivity()

private Activity performLaunchActivity(ActivityClientRecord r, Intent customIntent) {
    //LoadedApk检验
    ActivityInfo aInfo = r.activityInfo;
    if (r.packageInfo == null) {
        r.packageInfo = getPackageInfo(aInfo.applicationInfo, r.compatInfo,
                Context.CONTEXT_INCLUDE_CODE);
    }
    //component检验
    ComponentName component = r.intent.getComponent();
    if (component == null) {
        component = r.intent.resolveActivity(
            mInitialApplication.getPackageManager());
        r.intent.setComponent(component);
    }
    //原activity不为空可新建component
    if (r.activityInfo.targetActivity != null) {
        component = new ComponentName(r.activityInfo.packageName,
                r.activityInfo.targetActivity);
    }
    //创建contextImpl
    ContextImpl appContext = createBaseContextForActivity(r);
    Activity activity = null;
    try {
        java.lang.ClassLoader cl = appContext.getClassLoader();
        //通过Instrumentation创建activity实例
        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 {
        //创建我们亲爱的application
        Application app = r.packageInfo.makeApplication(false, mInstrumentation);
        if (localLOGV) Slog.v(TAG, "Performing launch of " + r);

        if (activity != null) {
            //加载label
            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;

            }
            //context表示为activity
            appContext.setOuterContext(activity);
            //准备好了吗我们的activity来了
            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;

            }
            activity.mCalled = false;
            //activity已启动执行onCreate()了
            if (r.isPersistable()) {

            }
            if (!activity.mCalled) {
                throw new SuperNotCalledException(
                    "Activity " + r.intent.getComponent().toShortString() +

            if (!r.activity.mFinished) {
                activity.performStart();
                r.stopped = false;
            }

    }
    return activity;
}

系不系上面这个方法有点长了，但是很显然是我们开发平时接触很近的方法了
再看看attach()

//主要是给我们activity赋一大堆值
final void attach(Context context, ActivityThread aThread,
        Instrumentation instr, IBinder token, int ident,
        Application application, Intent intent, ActivityInfo info,
        CharSequence title, Activity parent, String id,
        NonConfigurationInstances lastNonConfigurationInstances,
        Configuration config, String referrer, IVoiceInteractor voiceInteractor,
        Window window, ActivityConfigCallback activityConfigCallback) {
    attachBaseContext(context);

    mFragments.attachHost(null /*parent*/);
    //window创建并赋值
    mWindow = new PhoneWindow(this, window, activityConfigCallback);
    mWindow.setWindowControllerCallback(this);
    mWindow.setCallback(this);
    mWindow.setOnWindowDismissedCallback(this);
    mWindow.getLayoutInflater().setPrivateFactory(this);
    if (info.softInputMode != WindowManager.LayoutParams.SOFT_INPUT_STATE_UNSPECIFIED) {
        mWindow.setSoftInputMode(info.softInputMode);
    }
    if (info.uiOptions != 0) {
        mWindow.setUiOptions(info.uiOptions);
    }
    //看见没这就是uiThread
    mUiThread = Thread.currentThread();
    //主线程为ActivityThread
    mMainThread = aThread;
    //原来这货再这赋值的每一个activity都有这个监控类
    mInstrumentation = instr;
    mToken = token;
    mIdent = ident;
    mApplication = application;
    mIntent = intent;
    mReferrer = referrer;
    mComponent = intent.getComponent();
    mActivityInfo = info;
    mTitle = title;
    mParent = parent;
    mEmbeddedID = id;
    mLastNonConfigurationInstances = lastNonConfigurationInstances;
    if (voiceInteractor != null) {
        if (lastNonConfigurationInstances != null) {
            mVoiceInteractor = lastNonConfigurationInstances.voiceInteractor;
        } else {
            mVoiceInteractor = new VoiceInteractor(voiceInteractor, this, this,
                    Looper.myLooper());
        }
    }
    mWindow.setWindowManager(
            (WindowManager)context.getSystemService(Context.WINDOW_SERVICE),
            mToken, mComponent.flattenToString(),
            (info.flags & ActivityInfo.FLAG_HARDWARE_ACCELERATED) != 0);
    if (mParent != null) {
        mWindow.setContainer(mParent.getWindow());
    }
    mWindowManager = mWindow.getWindowManager();
    mCurrentConfig = config;
    mWindow.setColorMode(info.colorMode);
}

还要问我activity启动了没有吗，我说没有

scheduleLaunchActivity()、handleLaunchActivity()、performLaunchActivity()
将activity的相关信息淋漓尽致的展现，没事多看看，我还没专研细致的方法呢。
