nit: Maybe CronetProvider or CronetLoader?

[kapishnikov, 2017/01/17 22:29:20]

Done.

+    /**
+     * Loads implementation of {@code ICronetEngineBuilder}.
+     *
+     * @param context Android {@link Context} to use for loading.
+     * @return {@code ICronetEngineBuilder} implementation.
+     */
+    protected abstract ICronetEngineBuilder load(Context context);

rather than having every call take Context, can we add a constructor that takes
a Context and a mContext protected member?

[kapishnikov, 2017/01/17 22:29:20]

Done.

+
+    /**
+     * Returns the provider name.
+     *
+     * @param context application context.
+     * @return provider name.
+     */
+    protected abstract String getName(Context context);

What's the name used for?  can we remove it?  we'll log the name for the
selected engine later using CronetEngine.getVersionString().

[kapishnikov, 2017/01/17 22:29:20]

The name can be used by embedders to select the provider that should be used.

+
+    /**
+     * Returns the provider version.
+     *
+     * @param context application context.
+     * @return provider version.
+     */
+    protected abstract String getVersion(Context context);
+}
