For most use cases it is better to just use the container's * built-in factory method support for the same purpose, since that is smarter at * converting arguments. This factory bean is still useful though when you need to * call a method which doesn't return any value (for example, a static class method * to force some sort of initialization to happen). This use case is not supported * by factory methods, since a return value is needed to obtain the bean instance. * * <p>Note that as it is expected to be used mostly for accessing factory methods, * this factory by default operates in a <b>singleton</b> fashion. The first request * to {@link #getObject} by the owning bean factory will cause a method invocation, * whose return value will be cached for subsequent requests. An internal * {@link #setSingleton singleton} property may be set to "false", to cause this * factory to invoke the target method each time it is asked for an object. * * <p>A static target method may be specified by setting the * {@link #setTargetMethod targetMethod} property to a String representing the static * method name, with {@link #setTargetClass targetClass} specifying the Class that * the static method is defined on. Alternatively, a target instance method may be * specified, by setting the {@link #setTargetObject targetObject} property as the target * object, and the {@link #setTargetMethod targetMethod} property as the name of the * method to call on that target object. Arguments for the method invocation may be * specified by setting the {@link #setArguments arguments} property. * * <p>This class depends on {@link #afterPropertiesSet()} being called once * all properties have been set, as per the InitializingBean contract. * * <p>An example (in an XML based bean factory definition) of a bean definition * which uses this class to call a static factory method: * * <pre class="code"> * <bean id="myObject" class="org.springframework.beans.factory.config.MethodInvokingFactoryBean"> * <property name="staticMethod"><value>com.whatever.MyClassFactory.getInstance</value></property> * </bean></pre> * * <p>An example of calling a static method then an instance method to get at a * Java system property.
