Interface SequenceFactory
- All Known Implementing Classes:
- SimpleSequenceFactory
- public interface SequenceFactory
The interface for objects that will manufacture sequences.
The factory layer is in here as sequences are potentialy heavy-weight, so we
want to decouple their possibly complicated creation from the code that wants
to make them.
