prototype
one of the design patterns, a type of object factory, useful when the classes to instantiate are specified at run time, e.g. dynamically loaded via class.forName. The prototype object factory uses exemplar (prototype/example) objects that it simply clones to produce the desired objects. The factory need know nothing of the class structure of the objects it creates.
