Class PortletContainerFactory

java.lang.Object
  org.portletfaces.bridge.container.PortletContainerFactory

All Implemented Interfaces:

javax.faces.FacesWrapper<PortletContainerFactory>

public abstract class PortletContainerFactory
extends java.lang.Object
implements javax.faces.FacesWrapper<PortletContainerFactory>

This abstract class provides a contract for defining a factory that knows how to create instances of type PortletContainer. It is inspired by the factory pattern found in the JSF API like FacesContextFactory and ExternalContextFactory. By implementing the FacesWrapper interface, the class provides implementations with the opportunity to wrap another factory (participate in a chain-of-responsibility pattern). If an implementation wraps a factory, then it should provide a one-arg constructor so that the wrappable factory can be passed at initialization time.
