48	<p>This interface works together with factories. If you want to
49	initialize the object after creation, you should
50	support this interface and you may support other interfaces
51	which offer type-safe initialization methods.  </p>
52
53    <p>Instead of calling <member>XSingleComponentFactory::createInstanceWithContext</member>
54    and later initialize(), you should call
55    <member>XSingleComponentFactory::createInstanceWithArgumentsAndContext</member>
56    to pass the arguments to the instance. The reason is, that a component may want to
57    return the same instance for the same set of parameters, and it can do so by implementing
58    the factory itself.
