Interface InstanceProvider

All Known Implementing Classes:
DefaultInstanceProvider
public interface InstanceProvider
Contract for a factory that creates instances given a type.

Useful for resultset mapping, where each row in the resultset might require a new instance.

Implementors are suggested to employ application-specific strategies, such as having a DI container handle instance creation.
