 }注释1处调用了ActivityStack的resumeTopActivityUncheckedLocked方法。
frameworks/base/services/core/java/com/android/server/am/ActivityStack.java
ActivityStack#resumeTopActivityUncheckedLocked()
boolean resumeTopActivityUncheckedLocked(ActivityRecord prev, ActivityOptions options) {
 …
 boolean result = false;
 try {
 // Protect against recursion.
 mStackSupervisor.inResumeTopActivity = true;
 if (mService.mLockScreenShown == ActivityManagerService.LOCK_SCREEN_LEAVING) {
 mService.mLockScreenShown = ActivityManagerService.LOCK_SCREEN_HIDDEN;
 mService.updateSleepIfNeededLocked();
 }
 result = resumeTopActivityInnerLocked(prev, options); //1
 } finally {
 mStackSupervisor.inResumeTopActivity = false;
 }
 return result;
 }注释1处调用resumeTopActivityInnerLocked函数。
ActivityStack#resumeTopActivityInnerLocked()
private boolean resumeTopActivityInnerLocked(ActivityRecord prev, ActivityOptions options) {
 …
 // If the top activity is the resumed one, nothing to do.
 if (mResumedActivity == next && next.state == ActivityState.RESUMED &&
 mStackSupervisor.allResumedActivitiesComplete()) {
 …
 return false;
 }
 if (mResumedActivity != null) {
 if (DEBUG_STATES) Slog.d(TAG_STATES,
 "resumeTopActivityLocked: Pausing " + mResumedActivity);
 pausing |= startPausingLocked(userLeaving, false, true, dontWaitForPause); //1
 }
 …
 mStackSupervisor.startSpecificActivityLocked(next, true, false); //2
 if (DEBUG_STACK) mStackSupervisor.validateTopActivitiesLocked();
 …

这个方法里面的内容很多。
注释1主要作用是将mResumedActivity暂停(Launcher任务栈的TopActivity)，即进入onPause状态。
注释2调用了ActivityStackSupervisor的startSpecificActivityLocked函数启动指定的AttivityRecored。

frameworks/base/services/core/java/com/android/server/am/ActivityStackSupervisor.java
ActivityStackSupervisor#startSpecificActivityLocked()
void startSpecificActivityLocked(ActivityRecord r, boolean andResume, boolean checkConfig) {
 //1
 ProcessRecord app = mService.getProcessRecordLocked(r.processName, r.info.applicationInfo.uid, true);
 r.task.stack.setLaunchTime®;
 if (app != null && app.thread != null) {
 try {
 if ((r.info.flags&ActivityInfo.FLAG_MULTIPROCESS) == 0 || !“android”.equals(r.info.packageName)) {
 app.addPackage(r.info.packageName, r.info.applicationInfo.versionCode, mService.mProcessStats);
 }
 realStartActivityLocked(r, app, andResume, checkConfig); //2
 return;
 } catch (RemoteException e) {
 Slog.w(TAG, "Exception when starting activity " + r.intent.getComponent().flattenToShortString(), e);
 }
 }
 //3
 mService.startProcessLocked(r.processName, r.info.applicationInfo, true, 0, “activity”, r.intent.getComponent(), false, false, true);
 }ActivityStackSupervisor#getProcessRecordLocked()
final ProcessRecord getProcessRecordLocked(String processName, int uid, boolean keepIfLarge) {
 if (uid == Process.SYSTEM_UID) {
 // The system gets to run in any process. If there are multiple
 // processes with the same uid, just pick the first (this
 // should never happen).
 SparseArray procs = mProcessNames.getMap().get(processName);
 if (procs == null) return null;
 …
 }
 …
 }注释1处获取当前Activity所在的进程的ProcessRecord，如果进程已经启动了，会执行注释2处的代码。否则执行注释3的代码。
 注释2处调用realStartActivityLocked来启动应用程序。
 注释3处调用AMS的startProcessLocked来启动应用程序进程，注意这里是应用程序进程，只有应用程序进程起来了，才能起应用程序。关于应用程序进程的启动我们可以看Framework学习（六）应用程序进程启动过程这篇文章。ActivityStackSupervisor#realStartActivityLocked()
final boolean realStartActivityLocked(ActivityRecord r, ProcessRecord app, boolean andResume, boolean checkConfig) throws RemoteException {
 …
 //1
 app.thread.scheduleLaunchActivity(new Intent(r.intent), r.appToken, System.identityHashCode®, r.info, new Configuration(mService.mConfiguration), new Configuration(task.mOverrideConfig), r.compat, r.launchedFromPackage, task.voiceInteractor, app.repProcState, r.icicle, r.persistentState, results, newIntents, !andResume,mService.isNextTransitionForward(), profilerInfo);…
return true;
 }

这里的app.thread指的是IApplicationThread，它的实现是ActivityThread的内部类ApplicationThread，其中ApplicationThread继承了ApplicationThreadNative，而ApplicationThreadNative继承了Binder并实现了IApplicationThread接口。

下面看从AMS到ApplicationThread的时序图：

ActivityThread启动Application和Activity
在应用程序进程启动时会创建ActivityThread实例。ActivityThread作为应用程序进程的核心类，它是如何启动应用程序（Activity）的呢？
根据上文接着查看ApplicationThread的scheduleLaunchActivity方法：

frameworks/base/core/java/android/app/ActivityThread.java
ApplicationThread#scheduleLaunchActivity()
@Override
 public final void scheduleLaunchActivity(Intent intent, IBinder token, int ident,ActivityInfo info, Configuration curConfig, Configuration overrideConfig,
 CompatibilityInfo compatInfo, String referrer, IVoiceInteractor voiceInteractor,
 int procState, Bundle state, PersistableBundle persistentState,List pendingResults, List pendingNewIntents, boolean notResumed, boolean isForward, ProfilerInfo profilerInfo) {updateProcessState(procState, false);
ActivityClientRecord r = new ActivityClientRecord();
r.token = token;
 r.ident = ident;
 r.intent = intent;
 r.referrer = referrer;
 r.voiceInteractor = voiceInteractor;
 r.activityInfo = info;
 r.compatInfo = compatInfo;
 r.state = state;
 r.persistentState = persistentState;r.pendingResults = pendingResults;
 r.pendingIntents = pendingNewIntents;r.startsNotResumed = notResumed;
 r.isForward = isForward;r.profilerInfo = profilerInfo;
r.overrideConfig = overrideConfig;
 updatePendingConfiguration(curConfig);sendMessage(H.LAUNCH_ACTIVITY, r); //1
 }

会将启动Activity的参数封装成ActivityClientRecord。
注释1处sendMessage方法向H类发送类型为LAUNCH_ACTIVITY的消息，并将ActivityClientRecord 传递过去。

ApplicationThread#sendMessage()

private void sendMessage(int what, Object obj) {
 sendMessage(what, obj, 0, 0, false);
 }private void sendMessage(int what, Object obj, int arg1, int arg2, boolean async) {
 if (DEBUG_MESSAGES) Slog.v(
 TAG, "SCHEDULE " + what + " " + mH.codeToString(what)• ": " + arg1 + " / " + obj);
 Message msg = Message.obtain();
 msg.what = what;
 msg.obj = obj;
 msg.arg1 = arg1;
 msg.arg2 = arg2;
 if (async) {
 msg.setAsynchronous(true);
 }
 mH.sendMessage(msg);
 }这里mH指的是H，它是ActivityThread的内部类并继承Handler。
ActivityThread.H
private class H extends Handler {
 public static final int LAUNCH_ACTIVITY = 100;
 public static final int PAUSE_ACTIVITY = 101;
 …public void handleMessage(Message msg) {
 if (DEBUG_MESSAGES) Slog.v(TAG, ">>> handling: " + codeToString(msg.what));
 switch (msg.what) {
 case LAUNCH_ACTIVITY: {
 Trace.traceBegin(Trace.TRACE_TAG_ACTIVITY_MANAGER, “activityStart”);
 final ActivityClientRecord r = (ActivityClientRecord) msg.obj;//1
 r.packageInfo = getPackageInfoNoCheck(
 r.activityInfo.applicationInfo, r.compatInfo);//2
 handleLaunchActivity(r, null, “LAUNCH_ACTIVITY”);//3
 Trace.traceEnd(Trace.TRACE_TAG_ACTIVITY_MANAGER);
 } break;
 …
 }查看H的handleMessage方法中对LAUNCH_ACTIVITY的处理。
 注释1处将传过来的msg的成员变量obj转换为ActivityClientRecord。
 在注释2处通过getPackageInfoNoCheck方法获得LoadedApk类型的对象并赋值给ActivityClientRecord的成员变量packageInfo 。应用程序进程要启动Activity时需要将该Activity所属的APK加载进来，而LoadedApk就是用来描述已加载的APK文件。
 在注释3处调用handleLaunchActivity方法。ActivityThread#handleLaunchActivity()
private void handleLaunchActivity(ActivityClientRecord r, Intent customIntent, String reason) {
 …
 Activity a = performLaunchActivity(r, customIntent); //1
 if (a != null) {
 r.createdConfig = new Configuration(mConfiguration);
 reportSizeConfigurations®;
 Bundle oldState = r.state;
 //2
 handleResumeActivity(r.token, false, r.isForward, !r.activity.mFinished && !r.startsNotResumed, r.lastProcessedSeq, reason);if (!r.activity.mFinished && r.startsNotResumed) {
 performPauseActivityIfNeeded(r, reason);
 if (r.isPreHoneycomb()) {
 r.state = oldState;
 }
 }
 } else {
 try {
 //3
 ActivityManagerNative.getDefault() .finishActivity(r.token, Activity.RESULT_CANCELED, null,
 Activity.DONT_FINISH_TASK_WITH_ACTIVITY);
 } catch (RemoteException ex) {
 throw ex.rethrowFromSystemServer();
 }
 }
 }注释1处的performLaunchActivity方法用来启动Activity。
 注释2处的代码用来执行Activity的onResume方法，将Activity的状态置为Resume。
 注释3如果该Activity为null则会通知ActivityManager停止启动Activity。ActivityThread#performLaunchActivity()
private Activity performLaunchActivity(ActivityClientRecord r, Intent customIntent) {
 …
 ActivityInfo aInfo = r.activityInfo; //1
 if (r.packageInfo == null) {
 r.packageInfo = getPackageInfo(aInfo.applicationInfo, r.compatInfo,Context.CONTEXT_INCLUDE_CODE); //2
 }
 ComponentName component = r.intent.getComponent(); //3
 …
 Activity activity = null;
 try {
 java.lang.ClassLoader cl = r.packageInfo.getClassLoader();
 activity = mInstrumentation.newActivity(cl, component.getClassName(), r.intent); //4
 …
 }
 } catch (Exception e) {
 …
 }
 try {
 Application app = r.packageInfo.makeApplication(false, mInstrumentation); //5
 …
 if (activity != null) {
 Context appContext = createBaseContextForActivity(r, activity); //6
 …
 }
 //7
 activity.attach(appContext, this, getInstrumentation(), r.token, r.ident, app, r.intent, r.activityInfo, title, r.parent, r.embeddedID, r.lastNonConfigurationInstances, config, r.referrer, r.voiceInteractor, window);…
 if (r.isPersistable()) {
 mInstrumentation.callActivityOnCreate(activity, r.state, r.persistentState); //8
 } else {
 mInstrumentation.callActivityOnCreate(activity, r.state);
 }
 …
 if (!r.activity.mFinished) {
 activity.performStart(); //9
 r.stopped = false;
 }
 …
 mActivities.put(r.token, r); //10
 }
 return activity;
 }注释1处用来获取ActivityInfo。
 注释2处获取APK文件的描述类LoadedApk。
 注释3处获取要启动的Activity的ComponentNa

me类，ComponentName类中保存了该Activity的包名和类名。
注释4处根据ComponentName中存储的Activity类名，用类加载器通过反射来创建该Activity的实例。
注释5处用来创建Application对象，makeApplication方法内部会调用Application的onCreate方法。该Application对象的唯一作用就是作为参数传递到Activity里，然后在Activity类中可以获得调用getApplication方法来获取Application对象。
注释6处用来创建要启动Activity的上下文环境ContextImpl。
注释7处调用Activity的attach方法初始化Activity，将ContextImpl对象注册到对应的Activity中，之后在Activity类中就可以使用Context的所有功能了。
注释8处会调用Instrumentation的callActivityOnCreate方法来启动Activity。
注释9处用来执行Activity的onStart方法。
注释10处将启动的Activity加入到ActivityThread的成员变量mActivities中，其中mServices是ArrayMap类型。

先来看看注释5方法：
frameworks/base/core/java/android/app/LoadedApk.java

LoadedApk#makeApplication()

public Application makeApplication(boolean forceDefaultAppClass,
Instrumentation instrumentation) {
if (mApplication != null) { //1
return mApplication;
}

Application app = null;
…
try {
ContextImpl appContext = ContextImpl.createAppContext(mActivityThread, this);
app = mActivityThread.mInstrumentation.newApplication(
cl, appClass, appContext); //2
} catch (Exception e) {
…
}
…
if (instrumentation != null) {
try {
instrumentation.callApplicationOnCreate(app); //3
} catch (Exception e) {
…
}
}
}
return app;
}

注释1判断当前应用是否是第一次创建Application对象，如果不是则直接返回Application对象，否则执行注释2创建第一个Application对象。目的是确保当前应用之创建了一个全局的Application对象。
注释2调用Instrumentation的newApplication()方法创建Application。
注释3调用Instrumentation的callApplicationOnCreate()。

frameworks/base/core/java/android/app/Instrumentation.java
Instrumentation#newApplication()
public Application newApplication(ClassLoader cl, String className, Context context)
 throws InstantiationException, IllegalAccessException,
 ClassNotFoundException {
 return newApplication(cl.loadClass(className), context);
 }static public Application newApplication(Class<?> clazz, Context context)
 throws InstantiationException, IllegalAccessException,
 ClassNotFoundException {
 Application app = (Application)clazz.newInstance(); //1
 app.attach(context); //2
 return app;
 }注释1简单粗暴，通过反射创建一个Application实例。
 注释2处调用Application的attach方法初始化Application，将ContextImpl对象注册到对应的Application中，之后在Application类中就可以使用Context的所有功能了。Instrumentation#callApplicationOnCreate()
public void callApplicationOnCreate(Application app) {
 app.onCreate();
 }
