AndroidChannel

AndroidChannel is helper library for inter thread communication between main thread and worker thread. AndroidChannel uses HandlerThread for inter thread communication.

Setup Gradle

dependencies {
  ...
  compile 'kr.pe.burt.android.lib:androidchannel:0.0.4' 
}

Example

AndroidChannel-ProgressLayout

I have reimplemented ProgressLayout by using AndroidChannel for example. You can check out souce code at AndroidChannel-ProgressLayout. It shows how to use AndroidChannel when you want to implement a custom animatable view.

Ping-Pong

You can make a channel between main thread and worker thread easily.

channel = new AndroidChannel(new AndroidChannel.UiCallback() {

  @Override
  public boolean handleUiMessage(Message msg) {

 if(msg.what == PING) {

 Log.d("TAG", "PING");

 channel.toWorker().sendEmptyMessageDelayed(PONG, 1000);

}

return false;
  
}
 
}
, new AndroidChannel.WorkerCallback() {

  @Override
  public boolean handleWorkerMessage(Message msg) {

 if(msg.what == PONG) {

 Log.d("TAG", "PONG");

 channel.toUI().sendEmptyMessageDelayed(PING, 1000);

}

return false;
  
}
 
}
);
 channel.toUI().sendEmptyMessage(PING);

Timer

If you use AndroidChannel, You can make Timer more easily. I already make Timer class for you. You can just use it. If you want to know how to implement Timer class, you just read souce code in the package.

timer = new Timer(1000, new Timer.OnTimer() {

  int count = 0;
  @Override
  public void onTime(Timer timer) {

count++;

textView.setText("count : " + count);

  
}
 
}
);
 timer.start();

You can also stop the timer like this.

@Override public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent event) {

  if(event.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_UP) {

if(timer.isAlive()) {

 timer.stop();

}
 else {

 timer.start();

}

  
}

  return super.onTouchEvent(event);
 
}

APIs

channel.open()
Use open() method to open channel. If you created a channel by Channel constructor, it is automatically open the channel by default.
channel.close()
Use close() method to close channel. close() method removes callbacks and messages in the message queue.
channel.toUI()
toUI() method returns main thread handler. If you want to send messages to ui thread you should use toUI() method.
channel.toWorker()
toWorker() method returns worker thread handler. If you want to send messages to worker thread you should use toWorker() method.
