PHP Class Horde_Injector_Binder_Factory, horde

An interface may be bound to a factory class. That factory class must provide a method or methods that accept a Horde_Injector, and return an object that satisfies the instance requirement. For example:
class MyFactory {
  ...
  public function create(Horde_Injector $injector)
  {
    return new MyClass($injector->getInstance('Collaborator'), new MyOtherClass(17));
  }
  ...
}

Method Details

__construct() public method

Create a new Horde_Injector_Binder_Factory instance.
public __construct ( string $factory, string $method )
$factory string The factory class to use for creating objects.
$method string The method on that factory to use for creating objects.

create() public method

If the factory depends on a Horde_Injector we want to limit its scope so it cannot change anything that effects any higher-level scope. A factory should not have the responsibility of making a higher-level scope change. To enforce this we create a new child Horde_Injector. When a Horde_Injector is requested from a Horde_Injector it will return itself. This means that the factory will only ever be able to work on the child Horde_Injector we give it now.
public create ( Horde_Injector $injector ) : Horde_Injector
$injector Horde_Injector Injector object.
return Horde_Injector
