    - #### isLeaf

          public boolean isLeaf()

      Specified by:
        `isLeaf` in interface `Factory`
      Returns:
        true if no child closures should be processed

    - #### isHandlesNodeChildren

          public boolean isHandlesNodeChildren()

      Description copied from interface: `Factory`
      Does this factory "Own" it's child closure.
      Specified by:
        `isHandlesNodeChildren` in interface `Factory`
      Returns:
        true if the factory should have onContentClosure() called, false if the builder should handle it

    - #### onFactoryRegistration

          public void onFactoryRegistration(FactoryBuilderSupport builder,
                                   java.lang.String registeredName,
                                   java.lang.String group)

      Description copied from interface: `Factory`
      Called when a factory is registered to a builder
      Specified by:
        `onFactoryRegistration` in interface `Factory`
      Parameters:
        `builder` - the build the factory has been registered to
        `registeredName` - the name the factory has been registered under

    - #### onHandleNodeAttributes

          public boolean onHandleNodeAttributes(FactoryBuilderSupport builder,
                                       java.lang.Object node,

      Specified by:
        `onHandleNodeAttributes` in interface `Factory`
      Parameters:
        `builder` - the FactoryBuilder
        `node` - the node (returned from newINstance) to consider the attributes for
        `attributes` - the attributes, a mutable set
      Returns:
        true if the factory builder should use standerd bean property matching for the remaining attributes

    - #### onNodeChildren
