## Annotation Type BeanFactory.Generate

-     @Target(value=TYPE)
       @Retention(value=RUNTIME)
      public static @interface BeanFactory.Generate

  Annotation which will trigger the generation of BeanFactories.

  If no value is supplied, a BeanFactory will be generated for the class that the annotation is applied to. So, if you have a custom class for which you would like to generate a BeanFactory, you can just annotate it like this:

  >       @BeanFactory.Generate
  >      public MyCanvas extends Canvas {
  >         ...
  >      }

  If you want to generate BeanFactories for framework classes, you can supply a value for the annotation, where the value is an array of class literals. For instance:

  >       @BeanFactory.Generate({ListGrid.class, TreeGrid.class})
  >      public interface EmptyInterface {
  >      }

  Note that when supplying values for the annotation, the class you annotate (here `EmptyInterface`) will not itself have a BeanFactory generated for it. Thus, you can use an empty inner interface for this purpose.

  If you want to generate BeanFactories for all `Canvas` subclasses or all `FormItem` subclasses, you can use `BeanFactory.CanvasMetaFactory` or `BeanFactory.FormItemMetaFactory` instead. However, that is less efficient if there are only a limited number of classes which need BeanFactories.
