C# Class SimpleFramework.Xml.Core.ArrayFactory

The ArrayFactory is used to create object array types that are compatible with the field type. This simply requires the type of the array in order to instantiate that array. However, this also performs a check on the field type to ensure that the array component types are compatible.
