public interface IInit
With the posibility of be initiated.

This interface is thought to be used with Factory. Although it can be used in others situations, where you create a object of unknow class y you need initiate it.

A possible example of use: 

 IInit obj = (IInit) myClass.newInstance();
 obj.init("obj");
The object that implements this interface generally have a default constructor, and you initiate the object with init(java.lang.String).
