48
49    <p>The <type scope="com::sun::star::container">XContentEnumerationAccess</type>
50    interface can be supported optionally.
51    If it is suported, it is possible to  enumerate all implementations that
52    support the service specified with the argument of
53    <member scope="com::sun::star::container">XContentEnumerationAccess::createContentEnumeration</member>.
54    The enumerator returns interfaces. The type of the interface is not specified.
55    Commonly this is <type>XSingleComponentFactory</type>.</p>
