前言

ListView是Android开发者最常见的控件之一，但是真的很少有人会去思考他是如何实现的，包括笔者也是。
最近有学长正好问到这个问题，笔者当场懵逼。
于是痛定思痛，决定阅读其源码，了解一下ListView的测量原理。一方面是提高自己阅读源码的自学能力，另一方面是打算让自己对View的测量的理解更进一步。

解析

寻找入口

ListView是一个非常复杂的控件，仅仅我们经常用的功能就包括：复用回收、设置HeadView、设置FootView、设置Adapter、设置分割线、设置当前位置等等。
如果要完全把ListView进行分析，那需要花费大量的时间和文笔。我们首先要清晰自己分析需求，笔者此文也是仅针对ListView的测量进行分析。
我相信大家首先想到分析的方法就是setAdapter()，因为只有当设置adapter之后，ListView才会拥有子View并进行显示，但是如上所说，ListView是一个非常复杂的控件，通过对setAdapter()分析后，很容易可以发现其中只是获取到了该adapter，具体绘制内容并不在里面，如下所示：

public void setAdapter(ListAdapter adapter) {
        if (mAdapter != null && mDataSetObserver != null) {
            mAdapter.unregisterDataSetObserver(mDataSetObserver);
        }

        resetList();
        mRecycler.clear();

        if (mHeaderViewInfos.size() > 0|| mFooterViewInfos.size() > 0) {
            mAdapter = new HeaderViewListAdapter(mHeaderViewInfos, mFooterViewInfos, adapter);
        } else {
            mAdapter = adapter;
        }

        mOldSelectedPosition = INVALID_POSITION;
        mOldSelectedRowId = INVALID_ROW_ID;

        // AbsListView#setAdapter will update choice mode states.
        super.setAdapter(adapter);

        if (mAdapter != null) {
            mAreAllItemsSelectable = mAdapter.areAllItemsEnabled();
            mOldItemCount = mItemCount;
            mItemCount = mAdapter.getCount();
            checkFocus();

            mDataSetObserver = new AdapterDataSetObserver();
            mAdapter.registerDataSetObserver(mDataSetObserver);

            mRecycler.setViewTypeCount(mAdapter.getViewTypeCount());

            int position;
            if (mStackFromBottom) {
                position = lookForSelectablePosition(mItemCount - 1, false);
            } else {
                position = lookForSelectablePosition(0, true);
            }
            setSelectedPositionInt(position);
            setNextSelectedPositionInt(position);

            if (mItemCount == 0) {
                // Nothing selected
                checkSelectionChanged();
            }
        } else {
            mAreAllItemsSelectable = true;
            checkFocus();
            // Nothing selected
            checkSelectionChanged();
        }

        requestLayout();
    }

那么我们只能寻找最常规的方法了。View的测量是依靠onMeasure()以及onLayout()方法。
我们使用ListView一般就是占用整个屏幕，onMeasure()没有特别需要分析的必要。
我们主要就讲一下onLayout()。

onLayout()

为了方便读者的理解，我们附上官网ListView的继承结构：

首先我们可以发现在ListView中并不存在onLayout()这个方法。
那么这个方法就一定是写在ListView的父类AbsListView中了。
我们可以找到如下：

protected void onLayout(boolean changed, int l, int t, int r, int b) {
        super.onLayout(changed, l, t, r, b);

        mInLayout = true;

        final int childCount = getChildCount();
        if (changed) {
            for (int i = 0; i < childCount; i++) {
                getChildAt(i).forceLayout();
            }
            mRecycler.markChildrenDirty();
        }

        layoutChildren();
        mInLayout = false;

        mOverscrollMax = (b - t) / OVERSCROLL_LIMIT_DIVISOR;

        // TODO: Move somewhere sane. This doesn't belong in onLayout().
        if (mFastScroll != null) {
            mFastScroll.onItemCountChanged(getChildCount(), mItemCount);
        }
    }

我们可以看到，onLayout()方法中并没有做什么复杂的逻辑操作，主要就是一个判断，如果ListView的大小或者位置发生了变化，ListView所有的子布局都强制进行重绘。layoutChildren()这个方法，从方法名上我们就可以猜出这个方法是用来进行子元素布局的。
但是我们点开后如下所示：

    /**
     * Subclasses must override this method to layout their children.
     */
    protected void layoutChildren() {
    }

我们发现这是一个空方法。其实很容易理解，ListView和GridView都继承自AbsListView，子部局的排版方式当然是继承后写到子类中了。
然后我们跳转到ListView的layoutChildren方法：

protected void layoutChildren() {
        final boolean blockLayoutRequests = mBlockLayoutRequests;
        if (blockLayoutRequests) {
            return;
        }

        mBlockLayoutRequests = true;

        try {
            super.layoutChildren();

            invalidate();

            if (mAdapter == null) {
                resetList();
                invokeOnItemScrollListener();
                return;
            }

            final int childrenTop = mListPadding.top;
            final int childrenBottom = mBottom - mTop - mListPadding.bottom;
            final int childCount = getChildCount();

            int index = 0;
            int delta = 0;

            View sel;
            View oldSel = null;
            View oldFirst = null;
            View newSel = null;

            // Remember stuff we will need down below
            switch (mLayoutMode) {
            case LAYOUT_SET_SELECTION:
                index = mNextSelectedPosition - mFirstPosition;
                if (index >= 0 && index < childCount) {
                    newSel = getChildAt(index);
                }
                break;
            case LAYOUT_FORCE_TOP:
            case LAYOUT_FORCE_BOTTOM:
            case LAYOUT_SPECIFIC:
            case LAYOUT_SYNC:
                break;
            case LAYOUT_MOVE_SELECTION:
            default:
                // Remember the previously selected view
                index = mSelectedPosition - mFirstPosition;
                if (index >= 0 && index < childCount) {
                    oldSel = getChildAt(index);
                }

                // Remember the previous first child
                oldFirst = getChildAt(0);

                if (mNextSelectedPosition >= 0) {
                    delta = mNextSelectedPosition - mSelectedPosition;
                }

                // Caution: newSel might be null
                newSel = getChildAt(index + delta);
            }


            boolean dataChanged = mDataChanged;
            if (dataChanged) {
                handleDataChanged();
            }

            // Handle the empty set by removing all views that are visible
            // and calling it a day
            if (mItemCount == 0) {
                resetList();
                invokeOnItemScrollListener();
                return;
            } else if (mItemCount != mAdapter.getCount()) {

                                    AccessibilityNodeInfo.ACTION_ACCESSIBILITY_FOCUS, null);
                        } else {
                            accessibilityFocusLayoutRestoreView.requestAccessibilityFocus();
                        }
                    } else if (accessibilityFocusPosition != INVALID_POSITION) {

                                accessibilityFocusPosition - mFirstPosition, 0,
                                getChildCount() - 1);
                        final View restoreView = getChildAt(position);

                mPositionScrollAfterLayout = null;
            }
            mNeedSync = false;
            setNextSelectedPositionInt(mSelectedPosition);

            updateScrollIndicators();

            if (mItemCount > 0) {
                checkSelectionChanged();
            }

            invokeOnItemScrollListener();
        } finally {
            if (!blockLayoutRequests) {
                mBlockLayoutRequests = false;
            }
        }
    }

代码有三百多行，说实话笔者刚开始看的时候是非常懵逼的。
但是我们可以根据函数名进行逻辑的筛选：
1、mAdapter为空等为特殊情况，我们不需要考虑，我们想得到的是正常情况下ListView的测量方法。
2、我们可以看到有很多参数都与“focus”相关，我们仅仅想知道ListView的测量方法，至于ListView其他的功能是怎么实现的，我们暂时就放一边了。
经过筛选后，我们可以得到以下代码：

// Pull all children into the RecycleBin.
            // These views will be reused if possible
            final int firstPosition = mFirstPosition;
            final RecycleBin recycleBin = mRecycler;
            if (dataChanged) {
                for (int i = 0; i < childCount; i++) {
                    recycleBin.addScrapView(getChildAt(i), firstPosition+i);
                }
            } else {
                recycleBin.fillActiveViews(childCount, firstPosition);
            }

            // Clear out old views
            detachAllViewsFromParent();
            recycleBin.removeSkippedScrap();

            switch (mLayoutMode) {
            case LAYOUT_SET_SELECTION:
                if (newSel != null) {
                    sel = fillFromSelection(newSel.getTop(), childrenTop, childrenBottom);
                } else {
                    sel = fillFromMiddle(childrenTop, childrenBottom);
                }
                break;
            case LAYOUT_SYNC:
                sel = fillSpecific(mSyncPosition, mSpecificTop);
                break;
            case LAYOUT_FORCE_BOTTOM:
                sel = fillUp(mItemCount - 1, childrenBottom);
                adjustViewsUpOrDown();
                break;
            case LAYOUT_FORCE_TOP:
                mFirstPosition = 0;
                sel = fillFromTop(childrenTop);
                adjustViewsUpOrDown();
                break;
            case LAYOUT_SPECIFIC:
                sel = fillSpecific(reconcileSelectedPosition(), mSpecificTop);
                break;
            case LAYOUT_MOVE_SELECTION:
                sel = moveSelection(oldSel, newSel, delta, childrenTop, childrenBottom);
                break;
            default:
                if (childCount == 0) {
                    if (!mStackFromBottom) {
                        final int position = lookForSelectablePosition(0, true);
                        setSelectedPositionInt(position);
                        sel = fillFromTop(childrenTop);
                    } else {
                        final int position = lookForSelectablePosition(mItemCount - 1, false);
                        setSelectedPositionInt(position);
                        sel = fillUp(mItemCount - 1, childrenBottom);
                    }
                } else {
                    if (mSelectedPosition >= 0 && mSelectedPosition < mItemCount) {
                        sel = fillSpecific(mSelectedPosition,
                                oldSel == null ? childrenTop : oldSel.getTop());
                    } else if (mFirstPosition < mItemCount) {
                        sel = fillSpecific(mFirstPosition,
                                oldFirst == null ? childrenTop : oldFirst.getTop());
                    } else {
                        sel = fillSpecific(0, childrenTop);
                    }
                }
                break;
            }

            // Flush any cached views that did not get reused above
            recycleBin.scrapActiveViews();

首先我们可以看switch (mLayoutMode){}之前的逻辑，根据注释可得，这些是ListView的复用逻辑，可以排除。

// Pull all children into the RecycleBin.
// These views will be reused if possible

//Clear out old views

那么我们就需要看switch (mLayoutMode){}中的逻辑了，首先我们要知道会进入mLayoutMode的什么模式。
我们可以发现ListView是不带有mLayoutMode这个参数的。那么，我们直接进入AbsListView进行查看。

/**
     * Controls how the next layout will happen
     */
    int mLayoutMode = LAYOUT_NORMAL;

我们可以发现mLayoutMode 默认情况下是LAYOUT_NORMAL模式，在switch中不存在，那么便会进入default中。
接下来我们查看default的代码：

if (childCount == 0) {
                    if (!mStackFromBottom) {
                        final int position = lookForSelectablePosition(0, true);
                        setSelectedPositionInt(position);
                        sel = fillFromTop(childrenTop);
                    } else {
                        final int position = lookForSelectablePosition(mItemCount - 1, false);
                        setSelectedPositionInt(position);
                        sel = fillUp(mItemCount - 1, childrenBottom);
                    }
                } else {
                    if (mSelectedPosition >= 0 && mSelectedPosition < mItemCount) {
                        sel = fillSpecific(mSelectedPosition,
                                oldSel == null ? childrenTop : oldSel.getTop());
                    } else if (mFirstPosition < mItemCount) {
                        sel = fillSpecific(mFirstPosition,
                                oldFirst == null ? childrenTop : oldFirst.getTop());
                    } else {
                        sel = fillSpecific(0, childrenTop);
                    }
                }

首先我们先思考一下我们一般使用LIstView的情况，我们一般会下xml中如下定义：

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:id="@+id/activity_main"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    >

    <ListView
        android:id="@+id/lv_main"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent">

    </ListView>
</RelativeLayout>

我们可以看到，ListView刚开始是没有子部局的。也是说childCount =0；
（只有在使用SetAdapter()之后，ListView才会有子部局，当然在xml中也不会体现出来）
那么，我们接下来就很方便了。childCount =0，并且我们默认的布局都是从上往下的，因此我们就会跳入fillFromTop()这个方法。

/**
     * Fills the list from top to bottom, starting with mFirstPosition
     *
     * @param nextTop The location where the top of the first item should be
     *        drawn
     *
     * @return The view that is currently selected
     */
private View fillFromTop(int nextTop) {
        mFirstPosition = Math.min(mFirstPosition, mSelectedPosition);
        mFirstPosition = Math.min(mFirstPosition, mItemCount - 1);
        if (mFirstPosition < 0) {
            mFirstPosition = 0;
        }
        return fillDown(mFirstPosition, nextTop);
    }

从这个方法的注释中可以看出，它所负责的主要任务就是从mFirstPosition开始，自顶至底去填充ListView。但是这个方法本身并没有什么逻辑，因此我们可以确定逻辑在fillDown()这个函数中：

/**
     * Fills the list from pos down to the end of the list view.
     *
     * @param pos The first position to put in the list
     *
     * @param nextTop The location where the top of the item associated with pos
     *        should be drawn
     *
     * @return The view that is currently selected, if it happens to be in the
     *         range that we draw.
     */
private View fillDown(int pos, int nextTop) {
        View selectedView = null;

        int end = (mBottom - mTop);
        if ((mGroupFlags & CLIP_TO_PADDING_MASK) == CLIP_TO_PADDING_MASK) {
            end -= mListPadding.bottom;
        }

        while (nextTop < end && pos < mItemCount) {
            // is this the selected item?
            boolean selected = pos == mSelectedPosition;
            View child = makeAndAddView(pos, nextTop, true, mListPadding.left, selected);

            nextTop = child.getBottom() + mDividerHeight;
            if (selected) {
                selectedView = child;
            }
            pos++;
        }

        setVisibleRangeHint(mFirstPosition, mFirstPosition + getChildCount() - 1);
        return selectedView;
    }

这时候我们看到了一个获取到child这个View的方法makeAndAddView()，于是再进方法内查看：

/**
     * Obtain the view and add it to our list of children. The view can be made
     * fresh, converted from an unused view, or used as is if it was in the
     * recycle bin.
     *
     * @param position Logical position in the list
     * @param y Top or bottom edge of the view to add
     * @param flow If flow is true, align top edge to y. If false, align bottom
     *        edge to y.
     * @param childrenLeft Left edge where children should be positioned
     * @param selected Is this position selected?
     * @return View that was added
     */
    private View makeAndAddView(int position, int y, boolean flow, int childrenLeft,
            boolean selected) {
        View child;


        if (!mDataChanged) {
            // Try to use an existing view for this position
            child = mRecycler.getActiveView(position);
            if (child != null) {
                // Found it -- we're using an existing child
                // This just needs to be positioned
                setupChild(child, position, y, flow, childrenLeft, selected, true);

                return child;
            }
        }

        // Make a new view for this position, or convert an unused view if possible
        child = obtainView(position, mIsScrap);

        // This needs to be positioned and measured
        setupChild(child, position, y, flow, childrenLeft, selected, mIsScrap[0]);

        return child;
    }

这时候我们看注释：

获取到View并且把它加入到list的子群，View可以被刷新。

那么我们可以推得，这个把View加入到list中的函数一定是ListView的测量与布局的函数了，即setupChild():

/**
     * Add a view as a child and make sure it is measured (if necessary) and
     * positioned properly.
     *
     * @param child The view to add
     * @param position The position of this child
     * @param y The y position relative to which this view will be positioned
     * @param flowDown If true, align top edge to y. If false, align bottom
     *        edge to y.
     * @param childrenLeft Left edge where children should be positioned
     * @param selected Is this position selected?
     * @param recycled Has this view been pulled from the recycle bin? If so it
     *        does not need to be remeasured.

            boolean selected, boolean recycled) {
        Trace.traceBegin(Trace.TRACE_TAG_VIEW, "setupListItem");

            child.layout(childrenLeft, childTop, childRight, childBottom);
        } else {
            child.offsetLeftAndRight(childrenLeft - child.getLeft());
            child.offsetTopAndBottom(childTop - child.getTop());
        }

        if (mCachingStarted && !child.isDrawingCacheEnabled()) {
            child.setDrawingCacheEnabled(true);
        }

        if (recycled && (((AbsListView.LayoutParams)child.getLayoutParams()).scrappedFromPosition)
                != position) {
            child.jumpDrawablesToCurrentState();
        }

        Trace.traceEnd(Trace.TRACE_TAG_VIEW);
    }

到这里，对于自定义过ViewGroup的onLayout()方法的读者来讲就会非常熟悉了。
由于此篇文章仅仅对于ListView测量以及布局的研究，此处对于needToMeasure这个boolean条件的判断就不讨论了，我们直接看needToMeasure为true时会进行的测量，首先是child的measure：

AbsListView.LayoutParams p = (AbsListView.LayoutParams) child.getLayoutParams();

if (needToMeasure) {
            final int childWidthSpec = ViewGroup.getChildMeasureSpec(mWidthMeasureSpec,
                    mListPadding.left + mListPadding.right, p.width);
            final int lpHeight = p.height;
            final int childHeightSpec;
            if (lpHeight > 0) {
                childHeightSpec = MeasureSpec.makeMeasureSpec(lpHeight, MeasureSpec.EXACTLY);
            } else {
                childHeightSpec = MeasureSpec.makeSafeMeasureSpec(getMeasuredHeight(),
                        MeasureSpec.UNSPECIFIED);
            }

首先获取到子View宽度的MeasureSpec。padding为ListView的左右padding之和，宽度即为child的宽度。
然后获取到高度的MeasureSpec，高度即为child的高度。
接着是最关键的子View的layout，函数如下：

        final int w = child.getMeasuredWidth();
        final int h = child.getMeasuredHeight();
        final int childTop = flowDown ? y : y - h;

        if (needToMeasure) {
            final int childRight = childrenLeft + w;
            final int childBottom = childTop + h;
            child.layout(childrenLeft, childTop, childRight, childBottom);
        } else {
            child.offsetLeftAndRight(childrenLeft - child.getLeft());
            child.offsetTopAndBottom(childTop - child.getTop());
        }

我们可以看到childRight 就是等于childrenLeft 加上子View的宽度，而childBottom就是等于childTop 加上子View的高度。
可知其实layout的关键是在childrenLeft 和childTop 上。

childrenLeft 是由setupChild()的参数之一。
而childTop 得到的方式如下：

final int childTop = flowDown ? y : y - h;

这时候我们再看setupChild（）这个函数：

private void setupChild(View child, int position, int y, boolean flowDown, int childrenLeft,
            boolean selected, boolean recycled)

我们可以发现childrenLeft 和childTop 都是取决于传递过来的参数，然后我们回到makeAndAddView()这个方法中，makeAndAddView这个方法如下：

makeAndAddView(int position, int y, boolean flow, int childrenLeft,
            boolean selected)

setupChild（）在makeAndAddView（）中的调用如下：

if (child != null) {
                // Found it -- we're using an existing child
                // This just needs to be positioned
                setupChild(child, position, y, flow, childrenLeft, selected, true);

                return child;
            }

我们发现这些参数还是被传递过来的，所以我们还需要回去找：
这时候就是回到fillDown中了：

while (nextTop < end && pos < mItemCount) {
            // is this the selected item?
            boolean selected = pos == mSelectedPosition;
            View child = makeAndAddView(pos, nextTop, true, mListPadding.left, selected);

            nextTop = child.getBottom() + mDividerHeight;
            if (selected) {
                selectedView = child;
            }
            pos++;
        }

终于我们找到了参数传递的源头！
于是我们再看layout函数：

final int w = child.getMeasuredWidth();
        final int h = child.getMeasuredHeight();
        final int childTop = flowDown ? y : y - h;

        if (needToMeasure) {
            final int childRight = childrenLeft + w;
            final int childBottom = childTop + h;
            child.layout(childrenLeft, childTop, childRight, childBottom);
        } else {
            child.offsetLeftAndRight(childrenLeft - child.getLeft());
            child.offsetTopAndBottom(childTop - child.getTop());
        }

childrenLeft为ListView的PaddingLeft。
而决定childTop 的为flowDown 这个boolean和y这个int。我们可以看到，flowDown 在这里的值为true，而y则是由nextTop这个值传回来的，我们需要再回去找，接着就到了fillDown和fillFromTop这两个函数，最终回到了ListView中的layoutChild：

private View fillDown(int pos, int nextTop) {
        View selectedView = null;

        int end = (mBottom - mTop);
        if ((mGroupFlags & CLIP_TO_PADDING_MASK) == CLIP_TO_PADDING_MASK) {
            end -= mListPadding.bottom;
        }

        while (nextTop < end && pos < mItemCount) {
            // is this the selected item?
            boolean selected = pos == mSelectedPosition;
            View child = makeAndAddView(pos, nextTop, true, mListPadding.left, selected);

            nextTop = child.getBottom() + mDividerHeight;
            if (selected) {
                selectedView = child;
            }
            pos++;
        }

        setVisibleRangeHint(mFirstPosition, mFirstPosition + getChildCount() - 1);
        return selectedView;
    }

View fillFromTop(int nextTop)

protected void layoutChildren() {
…………………………………………
 final int childrenTop = mListPadding.top;
            final int childrenBottom = mBottom - mTop - mListPadding.bottom;
            final int childCount = getChildCount();
…………………………………………
if (childCount == 0) {
                    if (!mStackFromBottom) {
                        final int position = lookForSelectablePosition(0, true);
                        setSelectedPositionInt(position);
                        sel = fillFromTop(childrenTop);
                    }
…………………………………………
}

然后我们可以在layoutChildren这个函数中发现，最初的nextTop这个值为ListView的PaddingTop。
而接下来是在fillDown这个函数中累加，如下：

nextTop = child.getBottom() + mDividerHeight;

nextTop 等于上一个子View的底部的位置加上分隔线的高度。
终于layout的所有参数我们都看懂了！

总结

View的测量

我们再看layout的函数

final int w = child.getMeasuredWidth();
        final int h = child.getMeasuredHeight();
        final int childTop = flowDown ? y : y - h;

        if (needToMeasure) {
            final int childRight = childrenLeft + w;
            final int childBottom = childTop + h;
            child.layout(childrenLeft, childTop, childRight, childBottom);
        }

第一次布局时，四个参数的值分别如下：
childrenLeft：为ListView的PaddingLeft
childTop：最初是为ListView的PaddingTop，之后为之前的一个View的底部的位置加上分隔线的高度。
childRight：为ListView的PaddingRight
childBottom：为ListView的PaddingBottom

找到layout的步骤

我们假设ListView是第一次布局，不存在子View，并且默认是从上到下布局。
函数查找的顺序如下：
onLayout(AbsListView类)
layoutChildren(ListView类)
fillFromTop(ListView类)
fillDown(ListView类)
makeAndAddView(ListView类)
setupChild(ListView类)
在setupChild（）中就包括ListView子View的measure和layout方法。
