Interface Summary

Interface	Description
BeanFactory<ID>	A lookup factory supporting type and ID lookup.
BeanLookupFactory<ID>	The BeanLookupFactory defines the functionality which must be provided in order to represent a factory for object creation of objects identified by an ID String and of the expected type (in contrast to the TypeFactory and the LookupFactory which create instances of a predefined type specified with a generic argument).
CollectionFactory<C extends Collection<?>>	The CollectionFactory defines the functionality which must be provided in order to represent a factory for object creation of *ALL* objects being of a requested type (in contrast to the TypeFactory and the LookupFactory which create instances of a predefined type specified with a generic argument).
ContextConverterFactory<T,CTX>	The ContextConverterFactory defines the functionality which must be provided in order to represent a factory for object creation depending on some provided context and of a predefined type specified with a generic argument (in contrast to the BeanLookupFactory , which creates instances of an expected type).
ContextLookupFactory<T,ID,CTX>	The ContextLookupFactory defines the functionality which must be provided in order to represent a factory for object creation of objects identified by an ID String and of a predefined type specified with a generic argument (in contrast to the BeanLookupFactory, which creates instances of an expected type).
LookupFactory<T,ID>	The LookupFactory defines the functionality which must be provided in order to represent a factory for object creation of objects identified by an ID String and of a predefined type specified with a generic argument (in contrast to the BeanLookupFactory, which creates instances of an expected type).
MarshalFactory<T>	The MarshalFactory defines the functionality which must be provided in order to represent a factory for object creation depending on some provided context and of a predefined type specified with a generic argument (in contrast to the BeanLookupFactory , which creates instances of an expected type).
RecyclableTypeFactory<T>	The RecyclableTypeFactory is a TypeFactory providing recycling support for instances as being created by the RecyclableTypeFactoryTypeFactory.toInstance() (or TypeFactory.toInstance(Properties).
TypeFactory<T>	The TypeFactory defines the functionality which must be provided in order to represent a factory for object creation of a predefined type specified with a generic argument (in contrast to the BeanLookupFactory , which creates instances of an expected type).
TypeLookupFactory	The TypeLookupFactory defines the functionality which must be provided in order to represent a factory for object creation of *ALL* objects being of a requested type (in contrast to the TypeFactory and the LookupFactory which create instances of a predefined type specified with a generic argument).
TypeRecyclable<T>	A factory implementing the TypeRecyclable interface takes once created instances back and will recycle them in terms of reusing: When a new instance is to be created and the factory contains recycled instances, then first recycled instances are returned till there are no more such instances available.
UnmarshalFactory<SRC>	The UnmarshalFactory defines the functionality which must be provided in order to represent a factory for object creation of an object being of a requested type (in contrast to the TypeFactory and the SelectorFactory from an instance of a provided type.

Exception Summary

Exception	Description
FactoryRuntimeException
UnexpectedFactoryRuntimeException	Thrown in case of a caught runtime exception of an underlying framework which only shows up at runtime (probably not documented in any API).
