    <p>This interface works together with factories. If you want to 
    initialize the object after creation, you should
    support this interface and you may support other interfaces 
    which offer type-safe initialization methods.  </p>

    <p>Instead of calling <member>XSingleComponentFactory::createInstanceWithContext</member>
    and later initialize(), you should call 
    <member>XSingleComponentFactory::createInstanceWithArgumentsAndContext</member>
    to pass the arguments to the instance. The reason is, that a component may want to
    return the same instance for the same set of parameters, and it can do so by implementing
    the factory itself.
