<p>
An <a class="link" href="EBackendFactory.html" title="EBackendFactory"><span class="type">EBackendFactory</span></a>'s job is to create an <a class="link" href="EBackend.html" title="EBackend"><span class="type">EBackend</span></a> instance for a
given <a href="../libedataserver/ESource.html"><span class="type">ESource</span></a>. <a class="link" href="EBackendFactory.html" title="EBackendFactory"><span class="type">EBackendFactory</span></a> and <a class="link" href="EBackend.html" title="EBackend"><span class="type">EBackend</span></a> should be subclassed
together, so that each type of <a class="link" href="EBackendFactory.html" title="EBackendFactory"><span class="type">EBackendFactory</span></a> creates a unique type
of <a class="link" href="EBackend.html" title="EBackend"><span class="type">EBackend</span></a>.
</p>
<p>
Each <a class="link" href="EBackendFactory.html" title="EBackendFactory"><span class="type">EBackendFactory</span></a> subclass must define a hash key to uniquely
identify itself among other <a class="link" href="EBackendFactory.html" title="EBackendFactory"><span class="type">EBackendFactory</span></a> subclasses. <a class="link" href="EDataFactory.html" title="EDataFactory"><span class="type">EDataFactory</span></a>
then services incoming connection requests by deriving a hash key from
the requested <a href="../libedataserver/ESource.html"><span class="type">ESource</span></a>, using the dervied hash key to find an appropriate
<a class="link" href="EBackendFactory.html" title="EBackendFactory"><span class="type">EBackendFactory</span></a>, and creating an <a class="link" href="EBackend.html" title="EBackend"><span class="type">EBackend</span></a> instance from that factory
to pair with the requested <a href="../libedataserver/ESource.html"><span class="type">ESource</span></a>.
