Prototype Design Pattern in Java

Abstract Factory might store a set of Prototypes from which to clone and return product objects.

public class FactoryProto {
  interface Xyz {
    Xyz cloan();
  }

  static class Tom implements Xyz {
    public Xyz    cloan()    {
      return new Tom();
    }
    public String toString() {
      return "ttt";
    }
  }

  static class Dick implements Xyz {
    public Xyz    cloan()    {
      return new Dick();
    }
    public String toString() {
      return "ddd";
    }
  }

  static class Harry implements Xyz {
    public Xyz    cloan()    {
      return new Harry();
    }
    public String toString() {
      return "hhh";
    }
  }

  static class Factory {
    private static java.util.Map prototypes = new java.util.HashMap();
    static {
      prototypes.put( "tom",   new Tom() );
      prototypes.put( "dick",  new Dick() );
      prototypes.put( "harry", new Harry() );
    }
    public static Xyz makeObject( String s ) {
      return ((Xyz)prototypes.get(s)).cloan();
    }
  }

  public static void main( String[] args ) {
    for (int i=0; i < args.length; i++) {
      System.out.print( Factory.makeObject( args[i] ) + "  " );
    }
  }
}
