Class CloudFactory

java.lang.Object

org.springframework.cloud.CloudFactory

public class CloudFactory
extends Object

Factory for the cloud.

The main entry point for user code. Typical code directly using this class (as opposed to using a dependency-injection framework) will look like:

 CloudFactory cloudFactory = new CloudFactory();
 Cloud cloud = cloudFoundry.getCloud();
 

Creating object of this class is somewhat expensive (due to scanning of various files to load connectors), so consider caching such an object if you create it manually. If you use a dependency-injection framework such as Spring, simply creating a bean for either CloudFactory or using this class as a factory-bean for Cloud will suffice.
