I am a bit confused after looking at the AndroidManifest.xml in the Media provider code of android. It would be great if some one can clarify here: The file has android:sharedUserId="android.media" and android:multiprocess="false"
** From my understanding android:multiprocess="false" indicates that request to content provider would happen over IPC. ** android:sharedUserId="android.media" - Specifies the name of a user ID that will be shared between multiple packages. By setting this value on two or more packages, each of these packages will be given a single shared user ID, so they can for example run in the same process So if Package1 has android:sharedUserId="android.media" specified and it uses uses the android's media provider , the media provider would run in a separate process or in the same process as the caller? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
