## Also known as
|
||
|
Virtual Constructor
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Intent
|
||
|
Define factory of immutable content with separated builder and factory interfaces.
|
||
|
|
||
|

|
||
|
|
||
|
## Applicability
|
||
|
Use the Factory Kit pattern when
|
||
|
|
||
|
* a class can't anticipate the class of objects it must create
|
||
|
* you just want a new instance of custom builder instead of global one
|
||
|
* a class wants its subclasses to specify the objects it creates
|
||
|
* classes delegate responsibility to one of several helper subclasses, and you want to localize the knowledge of which helper subclass is the delegate
|
