public interface ObjectFactory<T>
This interface is typically used to encapsulate a generic factory which returns a new instance (prototype) of some target object on each invocation.
This interface is similar to FactoryBean
, but implementations
of the latter are normally meant to be defined as SPI instances in a
BeanFactory
, while implementations of this class are normally meant
to be fed as an API to other beans (through injection). As such, the
getObject()
method has different exception handling behavior.
