Class ElementFactory

Direct Known Subclasses:: AbstractContentElementFactory, TextElementFactory

public abstract class ElementFactory
extends Object
extends Object

The class element factory is the base class for all Element Factories. Element factories can be used to create predefined element types. The properties allow null values, if a property is null, it will not be defined. Undefined properties can inherit their values from the element's parent bands or the default-stylesheet. Whether a property is inheritable from the parent is defined in the style-key itself.
