## Applicability
|
|
|
|
|
Use the Factory Kit pattern when
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* a class can't anticipate the class of objects it must create
|
2016-02-15 20:37:16 +01:00
|
|
|
* you just want a new instance of a custom builder instead of the global one
|
|
|
|
|
* you explicitly want to define types of objects, that factory can build
|
|
|
|
|
* you want a separated builder and creator interface
