Interface FactoryAdapter

All Known Implementing Classes:

ConnectionAdapter, RMIReferenceAdapter

public interface FactoryAdapter

An adapter interface for instantiating beans that are emitted from their own factories. Instead of instantiating the target bean, the BeanFactory will instantiate a FactoryAdapter instance. The setXXX methods are invoked against the FactoryAdapter instead of the target bean. After initialization is complete, BeanFactory calls createBean() which emits the target Bean.
