android AIDL(Android Interface Define Language)

1、why AIDL?

On Android, one process cannot normally access the memory of another process. So to talk, they need to decompose their objects into primitives that the operating system can understand, and marshall the objects across that boundary for you. The code to do that marshalling is tedious to write, so Android handles it for you with AIDL

2、calls --

     Calls from a remote process are dispatched from a thread pool the platform maintains inside of your own process. You must be prepared for incoming calls from unknown threads, with multiple calls happening at the same time. In other words, an implementation of an AIDL interface must be completely thread-safe.

3、实现接口时有几个原则:

.抛出的异常不要返回给调用者. 跨进程抛异常处理是不可取的.

.IPC调用是同步的。如果你知道一个IPC服务需要超过几毫秒的时间才能完成地话,你应该避免在Activity的主线程中调用。 也就是IPC调用会挂起应用程序导致界面失去响应. 这种情况应该考虑单起一个线程来处理.

.不能在AIDL接口中声明静态属性。

4、AIDL 接口异常

调用接口中定义的方法。 你总要检测到DeadObjectException异常,该异常在连接断开时被抛出。它只会被远程方法抛出。
