All Methods Instance Methods Concrete Methods
Modifier and Type	Method	Description
`protected Map<Object,Object>`	`createInstance()`	Template method that subclasses must override to construct the object returned by this factory.
`Class<Map>`	`getObjectType()`	This abstract method declaration mirrors the method in the FactoryBean interface, for a consistent offering of abstract template methods.
`void`	`setSourceMap(Map<?,?> sourceMap)`	Set the source Map, typically populated via XML "map" elements.
`void`	`setTargetMapClass(Class<? extends Map> targetMapClass)`	Set the class to use for the target Map.

  - setTargetMapClass
```
public void setTargetMapClass(Class<? extends Map> targetMapClass)
```

    Specified by:
    getObjectType in class AbstractFactoryBean<Map<Object,Object>>
    Returns:
    the type of object that this FactoryBean creates, or null if not known at the time of the call

  - createInstance
```
protected Map<Object,Object> createInstance()
```
    Description copied from class: AbstractFactoryBean
    Template method that subclasses must override to construct the object returned by this factory.
    Invoked on initialization of this FactoryBean in case of a singleton; else, on each AbstractFactoryBean.getObject() call.
    Specified by:
    createInstance in class AbstractFactoryBean<Map<Object,Object>>
    Returns:
    the object returned by this factory
