InjectionTargetFactory (Jakarta Contexts and Dependency Injection API)

Type Parameters:

T - type on which this InjectionTarget operates
```
public interface InjectionTargetFactory<T>
```
An InjectionTargetFactory can create an InjectionTarget for a given bean.

The InjectionTargetFactory obtained from BeanManager.getInjectionTargetFactory(AnnotatedType) is capable of providing container created injection targets. This factory can be wrapped to add behavior to container created injection targets.

For example:
```
 BeanAttributes<MyBean> myBeanAttributes = beanManager.createBeanAttributes(myBeanAnnotatedType);
 beanManager.createBean(myBeanAttributes, MyBean.class, new InjectionTargetFactory() {
 
     public <T> InjectionTarget<T> createInjectionTarget(Bean<T> bean) {
         return new WrappingInjectionTarget<T>(beanManager.getInjectionTargetFactory(myBeanAnnotatedType).createInjectionTarget(
                 bean));
     }
 });
 
```
CDI Lite implementations are not required to provide support for InjectionTargetFactory.
