multiprocess-preferences

This lib allow you to use shared preferences between a few processes.

Official framework does not support use shared preferences across multiple processes. Context.MODE_MULTI_PROCESS not solve this problem. So solution for this case is - use content provider. This lib is wrapper over content provider which emulates sharedpreferences interface. Content provider communicate with shared preferences from default process.
