025/**
026 * Callback interface for creating a CCI Record instance,
027 * usually based on the passed-in CCI RecordFactory.
028 *
029 * <p>Used for input Record creation in CciTemplate. Alternatively,
030 * Record instances can be passed into CciTemplate's corresponding
031 * {@code execute} methods directly, either instantiated manually
032 * or created through CciTemplate's Record factory methods.
033 *
034 * <P>Also used for creating default output Records in CciTemplate.
035 * This is useful when the JCA connector needs an explicit output Record
036 * instance, but no output Records should be passed into CciTemplate's
037 * {@code execute} methods.
