How to handle an AsyncTask during Screen Rotation?

问题


I read a lot on how to save my instance state or how to deal with my activity getting destroyed during screen rotation.

There seem to be a lot of possibilities but I haven\'t figured out which one works best for retrieving results of an AsyncTask.

I have some AsyncTasks that are simply started again and call the isFinishing() method of the activity and if the activity is finishing they wont update anything.

The problem is that I have one Task that does a request to a web service that can fail or succeed and restarting the task would result in a financial loss for the user.

How would you solve this? What are the advantages or disadvantages of the possible solutions?


回答1:


My first suggestion would be to make sure you actually need your activity to be reset on a screen rotation (the default behavior). Every time I've had issues with rotation I've added this attribute to my <activity> tag in the AndroidManifest.xml, and been just fine.

android:configChanges="keyboardHidden|orientation"

It looks weird, but what it does it hand off to your onConfigurationChanged() method, if you don't supply one it just does nothing other than re-measure the layout, which seems to be a perfectly adequate way of handling the rotate most of the time.




回答2:


You can check out how I handle AsyncTasks and orientation changes at code.google.com/p/shelves. There are various ways to do it, the one I chose in this app is to cancel any currently running task, save its state and start a new one with the saved state when the new Activity is created. It's easy to do, it works well and as a bonus it takes care of stopping your tasks when the user leaves the app.

You can also use onRetainNonConfigurationInstance() to pass your AsyncTask to the new Activity (be careful about not leaking the previous Activity this way though.)




回答3:


This is the most interesting question I've seen regarding to Android!!! Actually I've been already looking for the solution during the last months. Still haven't solved.

Be careful, simply overriding the

android:configChanges="keyboardHidden|orientation"

stuff is not enough.

Consider the case when user receives a phone call while your AsyncTask is running. Your request is already being processed by server, so the AsyncTask is awaiting for response. In this moment your app goes in background, because the Phone app has just come in foreground. OS may kill your activity since it's in the background.




回答4:


Why don't you always keep a reference to the current AsyncTask on the Singleton provided by Android?

Whenever a task starts, on PreExecute or on the builder, you define:

((Application) getApplication()).setCurrentTask(asyncTask);

Whenever it finishes you set it to null.

That way you always have a reference which allows you to do something like, onCreate or onResume as appropriated for your specific logic:

this.asyncTaskReference = ((Application) getApplication()).getCurrentTask();

If it's null you know that currently there is none running!

:-)




回答5:


The most proper way to this is to use a fragment to retain the instance of the async task, over rotations.

Here is a link to very simple example making it easy to follow integrate this technique into your apps.

回答6:


In Pro android 4. author has suggest a nice way, that you should use weak reference.

Weak reference note




回答7:


To my point of view, it's better to store asynctask via onRetainNonConfigurationInstance decoupling it from the current Activity object and binding it to a new Activity object after the orientation change. Here I found a very nice example how to work with AsyncTask and ProgressDialog.

Android : background processing/Async Opeartion with configuration change

To maintain the states of async opeartion during background process: you can take an help of fragments.

See the following steps :

Step 1: Create a headerless fragment let say background task and add a private async task class with in it.

Step 2 (Optional Step): if you want to put a loading cursor on top of your activity use below code:

Step 3: In your main Activity implement BackgroundTaskCallbacks interface defined in step 1

class BackgroundTask extends Fragment {
public BackgroundTask() {

}

// Add a static interface 

static interface BackgroundTaskCallbacks {
    void onPreExecute();

    void onCancelled();

    void onPostExecute();

    void doInBackground();
}

private BackgroundTaskCallbacks callbacks;
private PerformAsyncOpeation asyncOperation;
private boolean isRunning;
private final String TAG = BackgroundTask.class.getSimpleName();

/**
 * Start the async operation.
 */
public void start() {
    Log.d(TAG, "********* BACKGROUND TASK START OPERATION ENTER *********");
    if (!isRunning) {
        asyncOperation = new PerformAsyncOpeation();
        asyncOperation.execute();
        isRunning = true;
    }
    Log.d(TAG, "********* BACKGROUND TASK START OPERATION EXIT *********");
}

/**
 * Cancel the background task.
 */
public void cancel() {
    Log.d(TAG, "********* BACKGROUND TASK CANCEL OPERATION ENTER *********");
    if (isRunning) {
        asyncOperation.cancel(false);
        asyncOperation = null;
        isRunning = false;
    }
    Log.d(TAG, "********* BACKGROUND TASK CANCEL OPERATION EXIT *********");
}

/**
 * Returns the current state of the background task.
 */
public boolean isRunning() {
    return isRunning;
}

/**
 * Android passes us a reference to the newly created Activity by calling
 * this method after each configuration change.
 */
public void onAttach(Activity activity) {
    Log.d(TAG, "********* BACKGROUND TASK ON ATTACH ENTER *********");
    super.onAttach(activity);
    if (!(activity instanceof BackgroundTaskCallbacks)) {
        throw new IllegalStateException(
                "Activity must implement the LoginCallbacks interface.");
    }

    // Hold a reference to the parent Activity so we can report back the
    // task's
    // current progress and results.
    callbacks = (BackgroundTaskCallbacks) activity;
    Log.d(TAG, "********* BACKGROUND TASK ON ATTACH EXIT *********");
}

public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    Log.d(TAG, "********* BACKGROUND TASK ON CREATE ENTER *********");
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    // Retain this fragment across configuration changes.
    setRetainInstance(true);

回答9:


One thing to consider is whether the result of the AsyncTask should be available only to the activity that started the task. If yes, then Romain Guy's answer is best. If it should be available to other activities of your application, then in onPostExecute you can use LocalBroadcastManager.

LocalBroadcastManager.getInstance(getContext()).sendBroadcast(new Intent("finished"));

You will also need to make sure that activity correctly handles situation when broadcast is sent while activity is paused.




回答10:


Have a look at this post. This Post involves AsyncTask performing long running operation and memory leak when screen rotation happens both in one sample application. The sample app is available on the source forge




回答11:


My solution.

In my case i've got a chain of AsyncTasks with the same context. Activity had an access only to first one. To cancel any running task i did the following:

public final class TaskLoader {

private static AsyncTask task;

     private TaskLoader() {
         throw new UnsupportedOperationException();
     }

     public static void setTask(AsyncTask task) {
         TaskLoader.task = task;
     }

    public static void cancel() {
         TaskLoader.task.cancel(true);
     }
}

Task doInBackground():

protected Void doInBackground(Params... params) {
    TaskLoader.setTask(this);
    ....
}

Activity onStop() or onPause():

protected void onStop() {
    super.onStop();
    TaskLoader.cancel();
}

@Override
protected void onSaveInstanceState(Bundle outState) {
    super.onSaveInstanceState(outState);
    final AddTask task = mAddTask;
    if (task != null && task.getStatus() != UserTask.Status.FINISHED) {
        final String bookId = task.getBookId();
        task.cancel(true);

        if (bookId != null) {
            outState.putBoolean(STATE_ADD_IN_PROGRESS, true);
            outState.putString(STATE_ADD_BOOK, bookId);
        }

        mAddTask = null;
    }
}

@Override
protected void onRestoreInstanceState(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onRestoreInstanceState(savedInstanceState);
    if (savedInstanceState.getBoolean(STATE_ADD_IN_PROGRESS)) {
        final String id = savedInstanceState.getString(STATE_ADD_BOOK);
        if (!BooksManager.bookExists(getContentResolver(), id)) {
            mAddTask = (AddTask) new AddTask().execute(id);
        }
    }
}



回答13:


you can also add android:configChanges="keyboardHidden|orientation|screenSize"

to your manifest example i hope it help

 <application
    android:name=".AppController"
    android:allowBackup="true"
    android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher"
    android:label="@string/app_name"
    android:roundIcon="@mipmap/ic_launcher_round"
    android:supportsRtl="true"
    android:configChanges="keyboardHidden|orientation|screenSize"
    android:theme="@style/AppTheme">
