　　上一篇分析Symfony2框架源码，探究Symfony2如何完成一个请求的前半部分，前半部分可以理解为Symfony2框架为处理请求做准备工作，包括container生成、缓存、bundls初始化等一些列准备工作（Symfony2源码分析——启动过程1）。而这一篇讲的是Symfony2如何根据请求的数据生成Response对象，向客户端返回响应数据。

　　在分析前需要了解Symfony2的事件驱动机制：Symfony2事件驱动。

　　言归正传，Symfony2请求的工作流程其实是Symfony2内核的事件驱动完成的，下面是Symfony2框架定义好的内核事件：

final class KernelEvents{    /**     * The REQUEST event occurs at the very beginning of request     * dispatching     *     * This event allows you to create a response for a request before any     * other code in the framework is executed. The event listener method     * receives a Symfony\Component\HttpKernel\Event\GetResponseEvent     * instance.     *     * @var string     *     * @api     */    const REQUEST = 'kernel.request';    /**     * The EXCEPTION event occurs when an uncaught exception appears     *     * This event allows you to create a response for a thrown exception or     * to modify the thrown exception. The event listener method receives     * a Symfony\Component\HttpKernel\Event\GetResponseForExceptionEvent     * instance.     *     * @var string     *     * @api     */    const EXCEPTION = 'kernel.exception';    /**     * The VIEW event occurs when the return value of a controller     * is not a Response instance     *     * This event allows you to create a response for the return value of the     * controller. The event listener method receives a     * Symfony\Component\HttpKernel\Event\GetResponseForControllerResultEvent     * instance.     *     * @var string     *     * @api     */    const VIEW = 'kernel.view';    /**     * The CONTROLLER event occurs once a controller was found for     * handling a request     *     * This event allows you to change the controller that will handle the     * request. The event listener method receives a     * Symfony\Component\HttpKernel\Event\FilterControllerEvent instance.     *     * @var string     *     * @api     */    const CONTROLLER = 'kernel.controller';    /**     * The RESPONSE event occurs once a response was created for     * replying to a request     *     * This event allows you to modify or replace the response that will be     * replied. The event listener method receives a     * Symfony\Component\HttpKernel\Event\FilterResponseEvent instance.     *     * @var string     *     * @api     */    const RESPONSE = 'kernel.response';    /**     * The TERMINATE event occurs once a response was sent     *     * This event allows you to run expensive post-response jobs.     * The event listener method receives a     * Symfony\Component\HttpKernel\Event\PostResponseEvent instance.     *     * @var string     */    const TERMINATE = 'kernel.terminate';    /**     * The FINISH_REQUEST event occurs when a response was generated for a request.     *     * This event allows you to reset the global and environmental state of     * the application, when it was changed during the request.     *     * @var string     */    const FINISH_REQUEST = 'kernel.finish_request';}

　　我们可以编写事件监听器，监听相应的内核事件，在Symfony2触发该事件的时候，相应的事件监听器就会执行。监听和唤醒形象的描述，就像，你（事件监听器）参加校运会，去大会（Symfony2）登记（监听）参加50米短跑（事件），当50米短跑比赛开始了（事件被触发），那你就奔跑吧（监听器执行，其实就是一个执行函数，函数完成什么工作就取决于你的需求了），少年。

　　Symfony2的内核事件处理流程大部分工作都在HttpKernel::handleRaw方法中：

 1     PRivate function handleRaw(Request $request, $type = self::MASTER_REQUEST) 2     { 3         $this->requestStack->push($request); 4  5         // request 6         // 初始化事件，事件对象会被传递给监听器，所以事件可以说是一个信息的载体，事件内存放着监听器感兴趣的数据。 7         $event = new GetResponseEvent($this, $request, $type); 8         // 触发kernel.request事件，后续详细讲解EventDispatcher::dispatch方法的实现， 9         // 这里我们需要知道的是，dispatcher把$event传递给所有监听了kernel.request事件的监听器，监听器将会执行。10         // kernel.request事件发生在controller执行之前，我们可以在这一步奏完成路由解析等为controller执行提供准备数据，11         // 在这个过程允许我们直接生成Response对象，向客户端输出数据，那么controller就不会被执行了。12         $this->dispatcher->dispatch(KernelEvents::REQUEST, $event);13 14         // 如果我们在kernel.request事件生成了Response对象（响应数据），那么就跳过kernel.controller、kernel.view事件、15         // controller也会被跳过，直接执行kernel.response事件。16         if ($event->hasResponse()) {17             return $this->filterResponse($event->getResponse(), $request, $type);18         }19 20         // load controller21         // 根据路由规则返回 一个对象或者数组或者字符串 ，如果$controller是一个数组，$controller[0]是存放的是要执行的controller对象，22         // $controller[0]存放的是controller对象执行的方法，即action，方法的参数没有保存在$controller数组中；23         // 如果$controller是对象，那么该对象就实现了__invoke 方法；24         // 如果$controller是字符串，那么$controller就是要运行的函数的函数名。25         // 图2是$controller的一个var_dump例子26         if (false === $controller = $this->resolver->getController($request)) {27             throw new NotFoundHttpException(sprintf('Unable to find the controller for path "%s". Maybe you forgot to add the matching route in your routing configuration?', $request->getPathInfo()));28         }29 30         $event = new FilterControllerEvent($this, $controller, $request, $type);31         // 触发kernel.controller事件，这个事件发生在controller执行前。我们可以通过监听这个事件在controller执行前修改controller，32         // 或者完成一些动作。33         $this->dispatcher->dispatch(KernelEvents::CONTROLLER, $event);34         $controller = $event->getController();35 36         // controller arguments37         // 从request对象中获取controller方法的参数38         $arguments = $this->resolver->getArguments($request, $controller);39 40         // call controller41         // 执行controller42         $response = call_user_func_array($controller, $arguments);43 44         // view45         // 如果$response不是Response对象，那么kernel.view事件就会触发，监听kernel.view事件的监听器通过$response值生成Response对象。46         if (!$response instanceof Response) {47             $event = new GetResponseForControllerResultEvent($this, $request, $type, $response);48             $this->dispatcher->dispatch(KernelEvents::VIEW, $event);49 50             if ($event->hasResponse()) {51                 $response = $event->getResponse();52             }53 54             if (!$response instanceof Response) {55                 $msg = sprintf('The controller must return a response (%s given).', $this->varToString($response));56 57                 // the user may have forgotten to return something58                 if (null === $response) {59                     $msg .= ' Did you forget to add a return statement somewhere in your controller?';60                 }61                 throw new \LogicException($msg);62             }63         }64 65         // 触发kernel.response事件，在向客户端输出Response对象前，我们可以对Response对象进行修改，66         // 例如修改response头部，设置缓存、压缩输出数据等。67 68         // 接着触发kernel.finish_request事件，把当前请求从请求栈中弹出，当前请求就完成。69         return $this->filterResponse($response, $request, $type);70 71         // 千万别忘记了，filterResponse执行完后，Symfony2内核事件处理流程还有最后一步，位于app_dev.php[app.php]最后一行，72         // $kernel->terminate($request, $response);这个方法触发kernel.terminate事件，此时，Symfony2已经响应了客户端的请求，73         // 向客户端输出了Response对象。监听kernel.terminate事件的监听器，主要是为了完成一些耗时的操作，操作的结果不需要返回给74         // 客户端的，例如邮件发送、图片压缩等等。75         // 到这里，Symfony2的整个流程就走完了。76     }

HttpKernel::filterResponse方法和HttpKernel::finishRequest方法:

 1     private function filterResponse(Response $response, Request $request, $type) 2     { 3         $event = new FilterResponseEvent($this, $request, $type,
