解决 Unable to get provider

我们先看下activityThread 的源码：

private ContentProviderHolder installProvider(Context context,
            ContentProviderHolder holder, ProviderInfo info,
            boolean noisy, boolean noReleaseNeeded, boolean stable) {
        ContentProvider localProvider = null;
        IContentProvider provider;
        if (holder == null || holder.provider == null) {
            if (DEBUG_PROVIDER || noisy) {
                Slog.d(TAG, "Loading provider " + info.authority + ": "
                        + info.name);
            }
            Context c = null;
            ApplicationInfo ai = info.applicationInfo;
            if (context.getPackageName().equals(ai.packageName)) {
                c = context;
            } else if (mInitialApplication != null &&
                    mInitialApplication.getPackageName().equals(ai.packageName)) {
                c = mInitialApplication;
            } else {
                try {
                    c = context.createPackageContext(ai.packageName,
                            Context.CONTEXT_INCLUDE_CODE);
                } catch (PackageManager.NameNotFoundException e) {
                    // Ignore
                }
            }
            if (c == null) {
                Slog.w(TAG, "Unable to get context for package " +
                      ai.packageName +
                      " while loading content provider " +
                      info.name);
                return null;
            }

            if (info.splitName != null) {
                try {
                    c = c.createContextForSplit(info.splitName);
                } catch (NameNotFoundException e) {
                    throw new RuntimeException(e);
                }
            }

            try {
                final java.lang.ClassLoader cl = c.getClassLoader();
                LoadedApk packageInfo = peekPackageInfo(ai.packageName, true);
                if (packageInfo == null) {
                    // System startup case.
                    packageInfo = getSystemContext().mPackageInfo;
                }
                localProvider = packageInfo.getAppFactory()
                        .instantiateProvider(cl, info.name);
                provider = localProvider.getIContentProvider();
                if (provider == null) {
                    Slog.e(TAG, "Failed to instantiate class " +
                          info.name + " from sourceDir " +
                          info.applicationInfo.sourceDir);
                    return null;
                }
                if (DEBUG_PROVIDER) Slog.v(
                    TAG, "Instantiating local provider " + info.name);
                // XXX Need to create the correct context for this provider.
                localProvider.attachInfo(c, info);
            } catch (java.lang.Exception e) {
                if (!mInstrumentation.onException(null, e)) {
                    throw new RuntimeException(
                            "Unable to get provider " + info.name
                            + ": " + e.toString(), e);
                }
                return null;
            }
        } else {

很明显报错的地方，在这里

 if (!mInstrumentation.onException(null, e)) {
                    throw new RuntimeException(
                            "Unable to get provider " + info.name
                            + ": " + e.toString(), e);
                }
                return null;

解决方法就是

自己定义一个mInstrumentation，重写 onException 方法，返回true.表示自己处理。

总结：

很多问题，只有多看源码，才知道原因，毕竟这是源码的地方报了错误。看源码，让人学到很多，
比如ActivityThread 里面，可以看到activity的生命周期。可以看到Application 的onAttch 方法什么时候被调用。

如果你没看过源码，很多问题你无从下手，可以看了源码之后，你回发现，原来很简单。
加油吧。
