ApplicationFactory is a factory object that creates (if needed) and returns Application instances. Implementations of JavaServer Faces must provide at least a default implementation of Application .

There must be one ApplicationFactory instance per web application that is utilizing JavaServer Faces. This instance can be acquired, in a portable manner, by calling:

  ApplicationFactory factory = (ApplicationFactory)
   FactoryFinder.getFactory(FactoryFinder.APPLICATION_FACTORY);
