Synopsis

Class Name:	javax.servlet.jsp.JspFactory
Extends:	None

Description

The JspFactory is an abstract class that defines a number of factory methods available to a JSP page at runtime, for the purpose of creating instances of various interfaces and classes used to support the JSP implementation.

A JSP container creates an instance of a concrete subclass during its initialization phase and makes it globally available for use by JSP implementation classes by registering the instance created with this class via the static setDefaultFactory( ) method.
