+/**
+ * This class is a mediator for accomplishing a given task, for example sharing a file.
+ * It is responsible for creating a view that performs an action that accomplishes the task.
+ * This class also implements other functions such a performing a default action.
+ * <p>
+ * An ActionProvider can be optionally specified for a {@link MenuItem} and in such a
+ * case it will be responsible for creating the action view that appears in the
+ * {@link android.app.ActionBar} as a substitute for the menu item when the item is
+ * displayed as an action item. Also the provider is responsible for performing a
+ * default action if a menu item placed on the overflow menu of the ActionBar is
+ * selected and none of the menu item callbacks has handled the selection. For this
+ * case the provider can also optionally provide a sub-menu for accomplishing the
+ * task at hand.
+ * </p>
+ * <p>
+ * There are two ways for using an action provider for creating and handling of action views:
+ * <ul>
+ * <li>
+ * Setting the action provider on a {@link MenuItem} directly by calling
+ * {@link MenuItem#setActionProvider(ActionProvider)}.
+ * </li>
+ * <li>
+ * Declaring the action provider in the menu XML resource. For example:
+ * <pre>
+ * <code>
+ * &lt;item android:id="@+id/my_menu_item"
+ * android:title="Title"
+ * android:icon="@drawable/my_menu_item_icon"
+ * android:showAsAction="ifRoom"
+ * android:actionProviderClass="foo.bar.SomeActionProvider" /&gt;
+ * </code>
+ * </pre>
+ * </li>
+ * </ul>
+ * </p>
+ *
+ * @see MenuItem#setActionProvider(ActionProvider)
+ * @see MenuItem#getActionProvider()
