I was wondering, why do static Create methods exist?
For instance, why use this code:
System.Xml.XmlReader reader = System.Xml.XmlReader.Create(inputUri);
over this code:
System.Xml.XmlReader reader = new System.Xml.XmlReader(inputUri);
I cannot find the rationale for using one over the other, and can't find any relation between classes who use this construct over the other.
Can anyone shed some light on this?
