Android two thread (main and back) examples for review.

gistfile1.java

//
// EXAMPLE METHOD 1
// 

// member var
private final Looper backLooper; // background looper, only used here internally
 
//inside onCreate or ctor, etc
HandlerThread thread = new HandlerThread("BackLooper", Thread.NORM_PRIORITY);
thread.start();
backLooper = thread.getLooper();
 
// helpers to use it back and main
private void runOnBackThread(Runnable r) {
   new Handler(backLooper).post(r);
}
 
private  void runOnMainThread(Runnable r) {
   new Handler(Looper.getMainLooper()).post(r);
}
 
 
//
// EXAMPLE METHOD 2
//
// I've also seen this, which seems cleaner, but effectively is the same thing (from square code samples, like tape)
private static final Handler MAIN_THREAD = new Handler(Looper.getMainLooper());
MAIN_THREAD.post(RunnableHere);
