Remarks

Allows application to override the creation of providers. This can be used to perform things such as dependency injection or class loader changes to these classes.

This method is only intended to provide a hook for instantiation. It does not provide earlier access to the ContentProvider object. The returned object will not be initialized with a Context yet and should not be used to interact with other android APIs.
