FormatterEngineMaker (dotify.api 5.0.0 API)

java.lang.Object
- org.daisy.dotify.api.engine.FormatterEngineMaker

```
public class FormatterEngineMaker
extends Object
```
Like all maker classes in the api, this class is only used directly in SPI context. Unlike some other classes however, this class does not implement a service interface that can be used from OSGi. The reason for this is that the implementation simply returns a single instance of the lower level interface with references populated with SPI. To use in OSGi context, request the lower level service directly from the DS registry.
