  org.pentaho.platform.engine.core.system.objfac.AbstractSpringPentahoObjectFactory
      org.pentaho.platform.web.http.context.WebSpringPentahoObjectFactory

All Implemented Interfaces:

IPentahoObjectFactory

public class WebSpringPentahoObjectFactory
extends AbstractSpringPentahoObjectFactory

This factory implementation can be used in a web environment in which a Spring WebApplicationContext has already been created during initialization of the web application. WebSpringPentahoObjectFactory will delegate object creation and management to the Spring context. There is one exception to this rule: see AbstractSpringPentahoObjectFactory for more details.

The Spring bean factory supports the binding of objects to particular scopes. See Spring documentation for description of the scope types: singleton, prototype, session, and request. The latter two apply only in a web context.
