18.2.2. Seam.Component The Seam.Component Javascript object provides a number of client-side methods for working with your Seam components. The two main methods, newInstance() and getInstance() are documented in the following sections however their main difference is that newInstance() will always create a new instance of a component type, and getInstance() will return a singleton instance.
