[android-developers] Can two application's content providers share one authority?

Hi,

Can i override already existing content provider
by implementing another ContentProvider with same authorty?

If that is the case.
How can android system decides ContentProvider to handle data
requests?

What is typical usae of MIME type?

We maintain unique URI for each Data.
Then why do we need MIME type again?

Is not CONTENT_URI enough for all requests?

If it is not the case.
Can you give me some example, where MIME play it's unique role?
Intent-filter are able provide information about URI as well as
MIME type.

Thanks in advance.
