NAME

       Bio::Search::Hit::HitFactory - A factory to create Bio::Search::Hit::HitI objects

SYNOPSIS

           use Bio::Search::Hit::HitFactory;
           my $factory = Bio::Search::Hit::HitFactory->new();
           my $resultobj = $factory->create(@args);

DESCRIPTION

       This is a general way of hiding the object creation process so that we can dynamically
       change the objects that are created by the SearchIO parser depending on what format report
       we are parsing.

       This object is for creating new Hits.
