Interface HyphenatorFactoryService
-
public interface HyphenatorFactoryService
Provides an interface for a HyphenatorFactory service. The purpose of this interface is to expose an implementation of a HyphenatorFactory as a service.
To comply with this interface, an implementation must be thread safe and address both the possibility that only a single instance is created and used throughout and that new instances are created as desired.

-
newFactory
HyphenatorFactory newFactory()

- returns a new hyphenator factory
-
setCreatedWithSPI
default void setCreatedWithSPI()
Informs the implementation that it was discovered and instantiated using information collected from a file within the
META-INF/services
directory. In other words, it was created using SPI (service provider interfaces).This information, in turn, enables the implementation to use the same mechanism to set dependencies as needed.
If this information is not given, an implementation should avoid using SPIs and instead use declarative services for dependency injection as specified by OSGi. Note that this also applies to several newInstance() methods in the Java API.
The class that created an instance with SPI must call this method before putting it to use.
