BroadcastReceiver
BroadcastReceiver是Android四大组件之一，我们都比较熟悉，称它为“广播”
Android中的广播就类似于电台广播，一个广播可以有N个接收者。这是一个典型的发布——订阅模式，也可以叫做观察者模式。
广播机制最大的特点就是发送发并不关心接收方是否接收到数据，也不关心接收方是如何处理数据的，通过这样的形式达到接收双方的完全解耦。
BroadcastReceiver是一个全局的（可跨进程）的广播，也就是说所有应用都可收到你发送的BroadcastReceiver。这可能会带来安全隐患，比如其他应用恶意模拟发送广播、获取隐私数据等等。
在BroadcastReceiver源码类注释中有如下文字：
If you don't need to send broadcasts across applications, consider using
this class with LocalBroadcastManager instead of the more general facilities described below. This will give you a much more efficient implementation (no cross-process communication needed) and allow you to avoid thinking about any security issues related to other applications being able to receive or send your broadcasts.
意思大概是如果你不需要跨进程发送广播，请考虑使用LocalBroadcastManager替代BroadcastReceiver，这样我们就可以避免其他应用程序能够接收或发送你的应用程序的BroadcastReceiver所带来的安全问题
LocalBroadcastManager的基本使用
- 注册广播
LocalBroadcastManager.getInstance(context).registerReceiver(receiver,intentFilter);
- 反注册广播
LocalBroadcastManager.getInstance(context).unregisterReceiver(receiver);
- 发送广播
LocalBroadcastManager.getInstance(context).sendBroadcast(newIntent());
LocalBroadcastManager 源码解析
代码量比较少，我先用大白话说一遍，有个印象之后，看代码就好理解了
大体框架就是两个内部类、三个集合、一个Handler、注册广播的方法、反注册广播的方法、发送广播的方法、通知接收者的方法。
- 两个内部类用于承载一些广播数据，如IntentFilter、BroadcastReceiver等
- 三个集合就是将承载着数据的内部类存储起来，功能：存储注册的接收者、方便在需要的时候获取对象，比如获取接受者并回调onReceive方法等
- Handler用于在主线程发送并接收消息，调用executePendingBroadcasts()方法为接受者回调onReceive方法
- 注册广播的方法：用内部类封装数据，并存入集合
- 反注册广播的方法：从集合中删除对应的数据
- 发送广播的方法：获取到Intent中携带的数据，与集合中保存的数据进行匹配，将匹配的保存到集合中，通过handler发送消息回调executePendingBroadcasts()方法为接受者回调onReceive方法
- 通知接收者的方法：从集合中获取注册的BroadcastReceiver对象，调用其onReceive方法

看完源码，我们会发现，BroadcastReceiver的跨进程通信是依赖Binder机制来完成的，而LocalBroadcastManager这个不跨进程的广播并没有那么复杂，说白了就是单例模式的LocalBroadcastManager就是普通观察这模式，将广播接收者（即观察者）存储到集合中，发送广播时去集合找到对应的接受者（即当可观察者发生变更时），配合了Handler的使用回调onReceive对象罢了（即通知观察者做出相应的处理），此模式可以看看Observable类的源码，加深理解。
利与弊
它的好处是：
- 仅在本应用内广播，不用担心数据泄露与其他应用模拟发送广播，比BroadcastReceiver更安全
- 效率比使用Binder的BroadcastReceiver高
相对而言，缺点就是：
- 不能跨进程通信。这就是它的双刃剑啊
- 不能用于系统Action，例如电量、Wifi状态等
总而言之，就是根据自己的实际情况去选择适合的工具，这样才能让它们都“工作”在自己真正应该在的岗位上，才能发挥出最大的价值！
