Re: RFC: Custom Factories (SPL)

I tried to clarify this by an updated example: class Foo { public function bar() { // Instantiate by class name: $email = new Email(); // or even instantiate by interface name (the factory needs to find the right implementation): $email = new EmailInterface(); } } So in the end the custom factory needs to find an appropriate implementation for EmailInterface.
