  25   * Provides the factory its own initialisation method.

  27   * The following will call 'getInstance()' method when creating new instance:
  28   *
  29   * <code>
  30   * class Abc_Class implements \Textpattern\Container\FactorableInterface
  31   * {
  32   *     public function getInstance()
  33   *     {

  35   *         return $this;
  36   *     }
  37   * }
  38   * Txp::get('Abc_Class');
  39   * </code>
  40   *
  41   * The above echoes 'Created instance' as the method is invoked. Keep in mind
  42   * that implementing this interface doesn't prevent constructors from running,
  43   * or let you to initialise private classes. It merely adds an additional method
  44   * to the factory line.
