Remarks
The CreateLayersFromName method is of limited use to ArcGIS Engine and ArcGIS Server developers because there is only a small subset of layer factories present and registered in the 'Layer Factory' component category. The CreateLayersFromName method internally iterates the objects in the "Layer Factory" component category and uses the ILayerFactory::CanCreate and ILayerFactory::Create methods.
