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