Remarks

Used to determine if a particular package has been registered as a Device Owner app. A device owner app is a special device admin that cannot be deactivated by the user, once activated as a device admin. It also cannot be uninstalled. To check whether a particular package is currently registered as the device owner app, pass in the package name from Context#getPackageName() to this method.<p/>This is useful for device admin apps that want to check whether they are also registered as the device owner app. The exact mechanism by which a device admin app is registered as a device owner app is defined by the setup process.
