SymbolWriter.Factory (Smithy API 1.47.0)

Type Parameters:

W - Type of SymbolWriter to create.

All Superinterfaces:

java.util.function.BiFunction<java.lang.String,java.lang.String,W>

Enclosing class:

SymbolWriter<W extends SymbolWriter<W,I>,I extends ImportContainer>

Functional Interface:

This is a functional interface and can therefore be used as the assignment target for a lambda expression or method reference.
```
@FunctionalInterface
public static interface SymbolWriter.Factory<W extends SymbolWriter<W,? extends ImportContainer>>
extends java.util.function.BiFunction<java.lang.String,java.lang.String,W>
```
Factory used to create a SymbolWriter.
The following example shows how to implement a basic Factory.
```
 public final class MyWriterFactory implements SymbolWriter.Factory<MyWriter> {
     \@Override
     public MyWriter apply(String filename, String namespace) {
         return new MyWriter(namespace);
     }
 }
 
```
Because this class is a FunctionalInterface, it can be implemented using a lambda expression:
```
 SymbolWriter.Factory<MyWriter> = (filename, namespace) -> new MyWriter(namespace);
 
```
