Android上MediaScanner是如何工作的

这里注意两个继承关系，在JAVA层有一个MyMediaScannerClient class位于 MediaScanner.java中，如下代码所示

private class MyMediaScannerClient implements MediaScannerClient

在C++层也有一个MyMediaScannerClient class 位于 android_media_MediaScanner.cpp中，如下代码所示

class MyMediaScannerClient : public MediaScannerClient

MediaScannerd的调用过程错综复杂，我们来看一段原代码里面的注释：

/** * Internal service helper that no-one should use directly. * * The way the scan currently works is: * - The Java MediaScannerService creates a MediaScanner (this class), and calls *   MediaScanner.scanDirectories on it. * - scanDirectories() calls the native processDirectory() for each of the specified directories. * - the processDirectory() JNI method wraps the provided mediascanner client in a native *   'MyMediaScannerClient' class, then calls processDirectory() on the native MediaScanner *   object (which got created when the Java MediaScanner was created). * - native MediaScanner.processDirectory() calls *   doProcessDirectory(), which recurses over the folder, and calls *   native MyMediaScannerClient.scanFile() for every file whose extension matches. * - native MyMediaScannerClient.scanFile() calls back on Java MediaScannerClient.scanFile, *   which calls doScanFile, which after some setup calls back down to native code, calling *   MediaScanner.processFile(). * - MediaScanner.processFile() calls one of several methods, depending on the type of the *   file: parseMP3, parseMP4, parseMidi, parseOgg or parseWMA. * - each of these methods gets metadata key/value pairs from the file, and repeatedly *   calls native MyMediaScannerClient.handleStringTag, which calls back up to its Java *   counterparts in this file. * - Java handleStringTag() gathers the key/value pairs that it's interested in. * - once processFile returns and we're back in Java code in doScanFile(), it calls *   Java MyMediaScannerClient.endFile(), which takes all the data that's been *   gathered and inserts an entry in to the database. * * In summary: * Java MediaScannerService calls * Java MediaScanner scanDirectories, which calls * Java MediaScanner processDirectory (native method), which calls * native MediaScanner processDirectory, which calls * native MyMediaScannerClient scanFile, which calls * Java MyMediaScannerClient scanFile, which calls * Java MediaScannerClient doScanFile, which calls * Java MediaScanner processFile (native method), which calls * native MediaScanner processFile, which calls * native parseMP3, parseMP4, parseMidi, parseOgg or parseWMA, which calls * native MyMediaScanner handleStringTag, which calls * Java MyMediaScanner handleStringTag. * Once MediaScanner processFile returns, an entry is inserted in to the database. * * The MediaScanner class is not thread-safe, so it should only be used in a single threaded manner. * * {@hide} */

在native层扫描文件的时候，对于类似MP3文件的处理过程中，需要解析MP3文件的 ID3 tags信息。在处理这些ID3信息的时候，可能会遇到一些native charset从而需要 convertValue或者说转码。这个时候，在native层StagefrightMediaScanner 会创建MediaMetadataRetriever实例来首先获得相印的metadata，然后MediaScannerClient会addStringTag，在addStringTag的过程中如果遇到native charset就需要在MediaScannerClient中进行转码。

最后，MediaScannerClient---》Java Layer MyMediaScanner handleStringTag----》最后在Java layer 把这对转好的 Key/Value pair给存到数据库里面去（通过MediaInserter）
