__invoke ( ContainerInterface  $container,

array  $options = null 
)

Create an instance of the requested class name.

string$requestedName
null | array$options
Returns

Implements FactoryInterface.

createService ( ServiceLocatorInterface  $serviceLocator,
  $canonicalName = null,
  $requestedName = null 
)

Create an instance of the named service.

First, it checks if `$canonicalName` resolves to a class, and, if so, uses that value to proxy to `__invoke()`.

Next, if `$requestedName` is non-empty and resolves to a class, this method uses that value to proxy to `__invoke()`.

Finally, if the above each fail, it raises an exception.

The approach above is performed as version 2 has two distinct behaviors under which factories are invoked:

  • If an alias was used, $canonicalName is the resolved name, and $requestedName is the service name requested, in which case $canonicalName is likely the qualified class name;
  • Otherwise, $canonicalName is the normalized name, and $requestedName is the original service name requested (typically the qualified class name).
