I'm looking at the standalone server code and I see that the creation
of the underlying repository does not use the factory pattern. It
instead uses the create method of the RepositoryImpl class itselt.
Here's the code:
repository = RepositoryImpl.create(RepositoryConfig.create(
config.toURI(), home.getPath()));
Then, looking at the RepositoryFactoryImpl code, I see that it really
makes little difference. Which leaves me a bit confused as to why one
would use the factory. I suppose it's because it's more flexible, but
I'm unable to wrap my head around what that might mean, at this point.
So . . . if I'm going to create my own repository, what method is recommended?
