* ViewDeclarationLanguageFactory

* ViewDeclarationLanguage} instance based on the VDL found in a
* specific view.

*
* There must be one ViewDeclarationLanguageFactory instance per web
* application that is utilizing JavaServer Faces. This instance can be
* acquired, in a portable manner, by calling:
*
*
* ViewDeclarationLanguageFactory factory = (ViewDeclarationLanguageFactory)
* FactoryFinder.getFactory(FactoryFinder.VIEW_DECLARATION_LANGUAGE_FACTORY);
*
*
*
*
* Usage: extend this class and push the implementation being wrapped to the
* constructor and use {@link #getWrapped} to access the instance being wrapped.
