Class ISeriesHostListObjectBriefFactory

java.lang.Object
  com.ibm.etools.iseries.comm.interfaces.ISeriesHostListObjectBriefFactory

All Implemented Interfaces:

IISeriesHostListBaseFactory, IISeriesHostListObjectFactory, IISeriesHostObjectFactory

public class ISeriesHostListObjectBriefFactory
extends Object
implements IISeriesHostListObjectFactory

This class is simply a factory for creating new instances of the ISeriesHostObjectBrief class for the ISeriesListObjects API.

Should somebody wish to use their own object instead they would:

create their own class that implements IISeriesHostObjectBrief

create their own factory class like this that implements IISeriesHostListObjectFactory with the methods prescribed by it.

when using comm layer code like ISeriesListObjects, you pass in your factory instance which is what is used to create the returned object.
