android UI线程向子线程发送Message

在android中一般是子线程向主线程发送消息，那主线程能否向子线程发送消息呢？答案是肯定的。
请看android文档中Looper类的一段文档：

Class used to run a message loop for a thread. Threads by default do not have a message loop associated with them; to create one, call prepare() in the thread that is to run the loop, and then loop() to have it process messages until the loop is stopped.

Most interaction with a message loop is through the Handler class.

This is a typical example of the implementation of a Looper thread, using the separation of prepare() and loop() to create an initial Handler to communicate with the Looper.

  class LooperThread extends Thread {
      public Handler mHandler;

      public void run() {
          Looper.prepare();

          mHandler = new Handler() {
              public void handleMessage(Message msg) {
                  // process incoming messages here
              }
          };

          Looper.loop();
      }
  }

主线程通过子线程中定义的Handler 向子线程发送message。先写到这里吧，等周末有空再进行详细说明。
