Detailed Description

template<typename T>
class CEGUI::TplWindowFactory< T >

Template based WindowFactory that can be used to automatically generate a WindowFactory given a Window based class.

The advantage of this over the previous macro based methods is that there is no longer any need to have any supporting code or structure in order to add new Window types to the system, rather you can just do:

CEGUI::WindowFactoryManager::addFactory<TplWindowFactory<MyWidget> >();

Template Parameters

T	Specifies the Window based class that the factory will create and destroy instances of.
