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