25/**
26 * An <code>AudioDeviceFactory</code> class is responsible for creating
27 * a specific <code>AudioDevice</code> implementation. A factory implementation
28 * can be as simple or complex as desired and may support just one implementation
29 * or may return several implementations depending upon the execution
30 * environment.
31 * <p>
32 * When implementing a factory that provides an AudioDevice that uses
33 * class that may not be present, the factory should dynamically link to any
34 * specific implementation classes required to instantiate or test the audio
35 * implementation. This is so that the application as a whole
36 * can run without these classes being present. The audio
37 * device implementation, however, will usually statically link to the classes
38 * required. (See the JavaSound deivce and factory for an example
39 * of this.)
