               This parameter
               should be in a URL format (= protocol:protocol-dependent-part).

               written via XImplementationLoader::writeRegistryInfo().
               The use of this parameter is deprecated.

        @return returns a factory interface, which allows to create an instance of
                the concrete implementation. In general, the object supports a
                com::sun::star::lang::XSingleComponentFactory
                and the com::sun::star::lang::XServiceInfo interface. The
                XServiceInfo interface informs about the capabilities of the
                service implementation, not the factory itself.
