Hi Stuart,
reading the documentation,
methods of() are implementing the*static* method factory pattern (introduced by Josh
Blosch in Effective Java) not the "method factory pattern" which something else
in the GoF [1] (and should not be used BTW).
Hi Remi,
Thanks for reading.
Yes indeed, it's right there in Item #1 of Effective Java. In fact Bloch takes
care to distinguish the "static factory method" concept from "Factory Method"
pattern from the Design Patterns book.
I'll make sure to tighten up the wording.
