/**
 * A factory for creating connections to a particular messaging provider. A <code>ProviderConnectionFactory</code>
 * object can be obtained in two different ways.
 * <ul>
 * <li>Call the <code>ProviderConnectionFactory.newInstance</code> method to get an instance of the default
 * <code>ProviderConnectionFactory</code> object.<br>
 * This instance can be used to create a <code>ProviderConnection</code> object that connects to the default provider
 * implementation.
 *
 * <PRE>
 * ProviderConnectionFactory pcf = ProviderConnectionFactory.newInstance();
 * ProviderConnection con = pcf.createConnection();
 * </PRE>
 * <P>
 * <li>Retrieve a <code>ProviderConnectionFactory</code> object that has been registered with a naming service based on
 * Java Naming and Directory Interface<sup><font size=-2>TM</font></sup> (JNDI) technology.<br>
 * In this case, the <code>ProviderConnectionFactory</code> object is an administered object that was created by a
 * container (a servlet or Enterprise JavaBeans<sup><font size=-2>TM</font></sup> container). The
 * <code>ProviderConnectionFactory</code> object was configured in an implementation- specific way, and the connections
 * it creates will be to the specified messaging provider. <br>
 * <P>
 * Registering a <code>ProviderConnectionFactory</code> object with a JNDI naming service associates it with a logical
 * name. When an application wants to establish a connection with the provider associated with that
 * <code>ProviderConnectionFactory</code> object, it does a lookup, providing the logical name. The application can then
 * use the <code>ProviderConnectionFactory</code> object that is returned to create a connection to the messaging
 * provider. The first two lines of the following code fragment use JNDI methods to retrieve a
 * <code>ProviderConnectionFactory</code> object. The third line uses the returned object to create a connection to the
 * JAXM provider that was registered with "ProviderXYZ" as its logical name.
 *
 * <PRE>
 * Context ctx = new InitialContext();
 * ProviderConnectionFactory pcf = (ProviderConnectionFactory) ctx.lookup("ProviderXYZ");
 * ProviderConnection con = pcf.createConnection();
 * </PRE>
 * </ul>
