Provider interface returning instances of component view creators. Registers into ABCS with the Component Registration API.
Creator is called when your component is dropped into a page or called though the Creator API and asked to create a new instance of the component view hierarchy representing the ABCS component model.
You should definitely implement this interface to provide a way of creating your component instances, without a creator ABCS will not be able to insert your component views into a page.
An instance of the provider must be registered into ABCS through the Component Registration API.
