    5 The [wiki:Factory] is a singleton that maps [wiki:Identifier Identifiers] with their name and their network ID. The [wiki:Factory] is used by the !CreateFactory(classname) macro (include [wiki:CoreIncludes CoreIncludes.h] to use it) to add new entries and by the ID("classname") and ID(network ID) macros (include [wiki:CoreIncludes CoreIncludes.h] to use them) to retrieve an [wiki:Identifier] with a given classname or a given network ID respectively. The ID macro is an abbreviation of the static function Factory::getIdentifier(...). The [wiki:Factory] also handles the change of a network ID to avoid conflicts with ambiguous map-entries.

    77Because the [wiki:Factory] knows all Identifiers with a [wiki:ClassFactory], it provides functions to get the map-iterators to iterate through all stored Identifiers.
