Interface InputTypeFactory

public interface InputTypeFactory
SPI interface for components that can derive an input type from a ResolvableType. Primary usage to enable to default the resolution to use HTML based HtmlInputType without creating a package cycle. If you want to replace that implementation with a different one, register it in META-INF/spring.factories.
