Android开发技术日新月异，每年新的技术层出不穷，对于一些旧的经典的技术框架，我们也是有必要好好学习的。对于网络框架Volley，相信有点经验的开发者都不陌生（虽然现在大都推荐OkHttp3.0），作为Google的亲儿子我们还是能从源码中学到很多的。
我们看一下Volley的基本用法

RequestQueue queue =Volley.newRequestQueue(context);
StringRequest myReq = new StringRequest(url, rListener, rErrorListener);
myReq.setRetryPolicy(new DefaultRetryPolicy(1500,0, DefaultRetryPolicy.DEFAULT_BACKOFF_MULT));
queue.add(myReq);

在Volley.newRequestQueue(context)这里，首先建了一个缓存文件夹、根据SDK的版本来使用基于HttpUrlConnection还是HttpClient的HttpStack处理Http请求结果及返回请求结果、BasicNetwork调用HttpStack来执行请求，及分发请求结果、RequestQueue一个请求的队列来调度各种Request、调用requestQueue.start()

    public static RequestQueue newRequestQueue(Context context, HttpStack stack) {
        File cacheDir = new File(context.getCacheDir(), DEFAULT_CACHE_DIR);
        String userAgent = "volley/0";
        try {
            String packageName = context.getPackageName();
            PackageInfo info = context.getPackageManager().getPackageInfo(packageName, 0);
            userAgent = packageName + "/" + info.versionCode;
        } catch (NameNotFoundException e) {
        }
        if (stack == null) {
            if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= 9) {
                stack = new HurlStack();
            } else {
                // Prior to Gingerbread, HttpUrlConnection was unreliable.
                // See: http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2011/09/androids-http-clients.html
                stack = new HttpClientStack(AndroidHttpClient.newInstance(userAgent));
            }
        }
        Network network = new BasicNetwork(stack);
        RequestQueue queue = new RequestQueue(new DiskBasedCache(cacheDir), network,4);
        queue.start();
        return queue;
    }

可以看到，在new RequestQueue(new DiskBasedCache(cacheDir), network, 4)这里，我们传入了缓存类DiskBasedCache，请求Network，以及threadPoolSize线程数，

/**
     * Creates the worker pool. Processing will not begin until {@link #start()} is called.
     *
     * @param cache A Cache to use for persisting responses to disk
     * @param network A Network interface for performing HTTP requests
     * @param threadPoolSize Number of network dispatcher threads to create
     * @param delivery A ResponseDelivery interface for posting responses and errors
     */
    public RequestQueue(Cache cache, Network network, int threadPoolSize,
            ResponseDelivery delivery) {
        mCache = cache;
        mNetwork = network;
        mDispatchers = new NetworkDispatcher[threadPoolSize];
        mDelivery = delivery;
    }

    /**
     * Creates the worker pool. Processing will not begin until {@link #start()} is called.
     *
     * @param cache A Cache to use for persisting responses to disk
     * @param network A Network interface for performing HTTP requests
     * @param threadPoolSize Number of network dispatcher threads to create
     */
    public RequestQueue(Cache cache, Network network, int threadPoolSize) {
        this(cache, network, threadPoolSize,
                new ExecutorDelivery(new Handler(Looper.getMainLooper())));
    }

在构造方法里，创建了分发响应Response及Error的ExecutorDelivery，在这里会将响应结果，回传给下面所创建Request传入的Listener里。
接着上面，在queue.start()这里，创建了一个缓存线程CacheDispatcher及threadPoolSize个的网络线程NetworkDispatcher（传入缓存队列，网络请求队列，Response分发器ExecutorDelivery），并调用start(),开启线程。

    /**
     * Starts the dispatchers in this queue.
     */
    public void start() {
        stop();  // Make sure any currently running dispatchers are stopped.
        // Create the cache dispatcher and start it.
        mCacheDispatcher = new CacheDispatcher(mCacheQueue, mNetworkQueue, mCache, mDelivery);
        mCacheDispatcher.start();

        // Create network dispatchers (and corresponding threads) up to the pool size.
        for (int i = 0; i < mDispatchers.length; i++) {
            NetworkDispatcher networkDispatcher = new NetworkDispatcher(mNetworkQueue, mNetwork,
                    mCache, mDelivery);
            mDispatchers[i] = networkDispatcher;
            networkDispatcher.start();
        }
    }

然后new StringRequest(url, rListener, rErrorListener)创建一个String类型的请求,主要是将NetworkResponse转换成String类型Response及分发请求结果Response；myReq.setRetryPolicy(new DefaultRetryPolicy(1500,0, DefaultRetryPolicy.DEFAULT_BACKOFF_MULT))设置一些请求参数；

    @Override
    protected void deliverResponse(String response) {
        mListener.onResponse(response);
    }

    @Override
    protected Response<String> parseNetworkResponse(NetworkResponse response) {
        String parsed;
        try {
            parsed = new String(response.data, HttpHeaderParser.parseCharset(response.headers));
        } catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e) {
            parsed = new String(response.data);
        }
        return Response.success(parsed, HttpHeaderParser.parseCacheHeaders(response));
    }

再就是，queue.add(myReq)将请求加入到队列中去。先是将request加入到所有请求集合mCurrentRequests中，再根据是否需要缓存，将请求加入到网络请求队列NetworkQueue、缓存请求队列CacheQueue、及等待WaitingRequests集合

 /**
     * Adds a Request to the dispatch queue.
     * @param request The request to service
     * @return The passed-in request
     */
    public Request add(Request request) {
        // Tag the request as belonging to this queue and add it to the set of current requests.
        request.setRequestQueue(this);
        synchronized (mCurrentRequests) {
            mCurrentRequests.add(request);
        }

        // Process requests in the order they are added.
        request.setSequence(getSequenceNumber());
        request.addMarker("add-to-queue");

        // If the request is uncacheable, skip the cache queue and go straight to the network.
        if (!request.shouldCache()) {
            mNetworkQueue.add(request);
            return request;
        }

        // Insert request into stage if there's already a request with the same cache key in flight.
        synchronized (mWaitingRequests) {
            String cacheKey = request.getCacheKey();
            if (mWaitingRequests.containsKey(cacheKey)) {
                // There is already a request in flight. Queue up.
                Queue<Request> stagedRequests = mWaitingRequests.get(cacheKey);
                if (stagedRequests == null) {
                    stagedRequests = new LinkedList<Request>();
                }
                stagedRequests.add(request);
                mWaitingRequests.put(cacheKey, stagedRequests);
                if (VolleyLog.DEBUG) {
                    VolleyLog.v("Request for cacheKey=%s is in flight, putting on hold.", cacheKey);
                }
            } else {
                // Insert 'null' queue for this cacheKey, indicating there is now a request in
                // flight.
                mWaitingRequests.put(cacheKey, null);
                mCacheQueue.add(request);
            }
            return request;
        }
    }

而在CacheDispatcher和NetworkDispatcher中正开启线程进行着不断的轮询。
下面先看一下NetworkDispatcher线程的run()方法。在这里，我们不断的从NetWorkQueue中取出Request，执行performRequest(request)请求得到一个NetworkResponse，再根据返回的Http状态码是否为304（表示服务端数据没有更新）及数据已经Delivered分发将请求打上finish(not-modified)标记并结束本次请求，解析Response，判断是否需要缓存，最后将本次Response进行Delivered并打上标记。

    @Override
    public void run() {
        Process.setThreadPriority(Process.THREAD_PRIORITY_BACKGROUND);
        Request request;
        while (true) {
            try {
                // Take a request from the queue.
                request = mQueue.take();
            } catch (InterruptedException e) {
                // We may have been interrupted because it was time to quit.
                if (mQuit) {
                    return;
                }
                continue;
            }

            try {
                request.addMarker("network-queue-take");

                // If the request was cancelled already, do not perform the
                // network request.
                if (request.isCanceled()) {
                    request.finish("network-discard-cancelled");
                    continue;
                }

                // Tag the request (if API >= 14)
                if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.ICE_CREAM_SANDWICH) {
                    TrafficStats.setThreadStatsTag(request.getTrafficStatsTag());
                }

                // Perform the network request.
                NetworkResponse networkResponse = mNetwork.performRequest(request);
                request.addMarker("network-http-complete");

                // If the server returned 304 AND we delivered a response already,
                // we're done -- don't deliver a second identical response.
                if (networkResponse.notModified && request.hasHadResponseDelivered()) {
                    request.finish("not-modified");
                    continue;
                }

                // Parse the response here on the worker thread.
                Response<?> response = request.parseNetworkResponse(networkResponse);
                request.addMarker("network-parse-complete");

                // Write to cache if applicable.
                // TODO: Only update cache metadata instead of entire record for 304s.
                if (request.shouldCache() && response.cacheEntry != null) {
                    mCache.put(request.getCacheKey(), response.cacheEntry);
                    request.addMarker("network-cache-written");
                }

                // Post the response back.
                request.markDelivered();
                mDelivery.postResponse(request, response);
            } catch (VolleyError volleyError) {
                parseAndDeliverNetworkError(request, volleyError);
            } catch (Exception e) {
                VolleyLog.e(e, "Unhandled exception %s", e.toString());
                mDelivery.postError(request, new VolleyError(e));
            }
        }
    }

同理，再看CacheDispatcher线程的run()方法。在这里与NetDispatcher类似，不断的从mCacheQueue中取出请求，进行一系列的缓存是否可用等判断进行Response分发或将Request加入到NetworkQueue中去。

    @Override
    public void run() {
        if (DEBUG) VolleyLog.v("start new dispatcher");
        Process.setThreadPriority(Process.THREAD_PRIORITY_BACKGROUND);

        // Make a blocking call to initialize the cache.
        mCache.initialize();

        while (true) {
            try {
                // Get a request from the cache triage queue, blocking until
                // at least one is available.
                final Request request = mCacheQueue.take();
                request.addMarker("cache-queue-take");

                // If the request has been canceled, don't bother dispatching it.
                if (request.isCanceled()) {
                    request.finish("cache-discard-canceled");
                    continue;
                }

                // Attempt to retrieve this item from cache.
                Cache.Entry entry = mCache.get(request.getCacheKey());
                if (entry == null) {
                    request.addMarker("cache-miss");
                    // Cache miss; send off to the network dispatcher.
                    mNetworkQueue.put(request);
                    continue;
                }

                // If it is completely expired, just send it to the network.
                if (entry.isExpired()) {
                    request.addMarker("cache-hit-expired");
                    request.setCacheEntry(entry);
                    mNetworkQueue.put(request);
                    continue;
                }

                // We have a cache hit; parse its mPageData for delivery back to the request.
                request.addMarker("cache-hit");
                Response<?> response = request.parseNetworkResponse(
                        new NetworkResponse(entry.data, entry.responseHeaders));
                request.addMarker("cache-hit-parsed");

                if (!entry.refreshNeeded()) {
                    // Completely unexpired cache hit. Just deliver the response.
                    mDelivery.postResponse(request, response);
                } else {
                    // Soft-expired cache hit. We can deliver the cached response,
                    // but we need to also send the request to the network for
                    // refreshing.
                    request.addMarker("cache-hit-refresh-needed");
                    request.setCacheEntry(entry);

                    // Mark the response as intermediate.
                    response.intermediate = true;

                    // Post the intermediate response back to the user and have
                    // the delivery then forward the request along to the network.
                    mDelivery.postResponse(request, response, new Runnable() {
                        @Override
                        public void run() {
                            try {
                                mNetworkQueue.put(request);
                            } catch (InterruptedException e) {
                                // Not much we can do about this.
                            }
                        }
                    });
                }

            } catch (InterruptedException e) {
                // We may have been interrupted because it was time to quit.
                if (mQuit) {
                    return;
                }
                continue;
            }
        }
    }

下面看一下ExecutorDelivery（Delivers responses and errors）分发响应和异常错误。
在构造方法中，创建了一个Executor匿名内部类，利用在前面初始化RequestQueue传入的new ExecutorDelivery(new Handler(Looper.getMainLooper()))，Handler将Runnable数据发送到MainThread主线程，并交由mRequest进行分发，

 /**
     * Creates a new response delivery interface.
     * @param handler {@link Handler} to post responses on
     */
    public ExecutorDelivery(final Handler handler) {
        // Make an Executor that just wraps the handler.
        mResponsePoster = new Executor() {
            @Override
            public void execute(Runnable command) {
                handler.post(command);
            }
        };
    }
@SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
        @Override
        public void run() {
            // If this request has canceled, finish it and don't deliver.
            if (mRequest.isCanceled()) {
                mRequest.finish("canceled-at-delivery");
                return;
            }

            // Deliver a normal response or error, depending.
            if (mResponse.isSuccess()) {
                mRequest.deliverResponse(mResponse.result);
            } else {
                mRequest.deliverError(mResponse.error);
            }

            // If this is an intermediate response, add a marker, otherwise we're done
            // and the request can be finished.
            if (mResponse.intermediate) {
                mRequest.addMarker("intermediate-response");
            } else {
                mRequest.finish("done");
            }

            // If we have been provided a post-delivery runnable, run it.
            if (mRunnable != null) {
                mRunnable.run();
            }
       }

这样基本完成了一整套的从请求到响应。下面我们再看一下mNetwork.performRequest(request)发起请求的逻辑。找到在new RequestQueue时创建的BasicNetwork的performRequest方法，在这里最主要的就是调用了HttpStack的performRequest()方法得到一个httpResponse，然后再进行一系列的http状态码判断返回一个NetWorkResponse（在内部对返回的data和Headers进行了封装），最终可以看到调用的是基于HurlStack（HttpURLConnection）或者HttpClientStack（HttpClient）进行的一个Http请求，返回了HttpResponse

@Override
    public NetworkResponse performRequest(Request<?> request) throws VolleyError {
        long requestStart = SystemClock.elapsedRealtime();
        while (true) {
            HttpResponse httpResponse = null;
            byte[] responseContents = null;
            Map<String, String> responseHeaders = new HashMap<String, String>();
            try {
                // Gather headers.
                Map<String, String> headers = new HashMap<String, String>();
                addCacheHeaders(headers, request.getCacheEntry());
                httpResponse = mHttpStack.performRequest(request, headers);
                StatusLine statusLine = httpResponse.getStatusLine();
                int statusCode = statusLine.getStatusCode();

                responseHeaders = convertHeaders(httpResponse.getAllHeaders());
                // Handle cache validation.
                if (statusCode == HttpStatus.SC_NOT_MODIFIED) {
                    return new NetworkResponse(HttpStatus.SC_NOT_MODIFIED,
                            request.getCacheEntry().data, responseHeaders, true);
                }

                // Some responses such as 204s do not have content.  We must check.
                if (httpResponse.getEntity() != null) {
                  responseContents = entityToBytes(httpResponse.getEntity());
                } else {
                  // Add 0 byte response as a way of honestly representing a
                  // no-content request.
                  responseContents = new byte[0];
                }

                // if the request is slow, log it.
                long requestLifetime = SystemClock.elapsedRealtime() - requestStart;
                logSlowRequests(requestLifetime, request, responseContents, statusLine);

                if (statusCode != HttpStatus.SC_OK && statusCode != HttpStatus.SC_NO_CONTENT) {
                    throw new IOException();
                }
                return new NetworkResponse(statusCode, responseContents, responseHeaders, false);
            } catch (SocketTimeoutException e) {
                attemptRetryOnException("socket", request, new TimeoutError());
            } catch (ConnectTimeoutException e) {
                attemptRetryOnException("connection", request, new TimeoutError());
            } catch (MalformedURLException e) {
                throw new RuntimeException("Bad URL " + request.getUrl(), e);
            } catch (IOException e) {
                int statusCode = 0;
                NetworkResponse networkResponse = null;
                if (httpResponse != null) {
                    statusCode = httpResponse.getStatusLine().getStatusCode();
                } else {
                    throw new NoConnectionError(e);

这样，我们就基本完成了Volley的源码走读，其实看下来还是比较易懂得，本人也是Android小菜鸟，如果有问题希望大家多多指出。
