+    which offer type-safe initialization methods.  </p>

+    <p>Instead of calling XSingleComponentFactory::createInstanceWithContext()

+    XSingleComponentFactory::createInstanceWithArgumentsAndContext()

+    return the same instance for the same set of parameters, and it can do so by implementing
+    the factory itself.
