3. 3 CS 501 Spring 2008 Design Patterns Design patterns: E. Gamma, R. Helm, R. Johnson, and J. Vlissides, Design Patterns: Elements of Reusable Object-Oriented Software. Addison-Wesley, 1994

4. 4 CS 501 Spring 2008 Sources The following discussion of design patterns is based on Gamma, et al., 1994, and Bruegge and Dutoit, 2004.

5. 5 CS 501 Spring 2008 Design Pattern Design patterns are template designs that can be used in a variety of systems. They are particularly appropriate in situations where classes are likely to be reused in a system that evolves over time. Name. [Some of the names used by Gamma, et al. have become standard software terminology.] Problem description. Describes when the pattern might be used, often in terms of modifiability and extensibility. Solution. Expressed in terms of classes and interfaces. Consequences. Trade-offs and alternatives.

6. 6 CS 501 Spring 2008 Adapter: Wrapping Around Legacy Code Problem description: Convert the interface of a legacy class into a different interface expected by the client, so that the client and the legacy class can work together without changes. This problem often occurs during a transitional period, when the long-term plan is to phase out the legacy system. Example: How do you use a web browser to access an information retrieval system that was designed for a different client?

8. 8 CS 501 Spring 2008 Adapter Design Pattern: Solution Class Diagram ClientInterface request() Adapter request() LegacyClass existingRequest() Client abstract class delegation inheritance

9. 9 CS 501 Spring 2008 Adapter Design Pattern: Consequences The following consequences apply whenever the Adapter design pattern in used. Client and LegacyClass work together without modification of either. Adapter works with LegacyClass and all of its subclasses. A new Adapter needs to be written if Client is replaced by a subclass.

10. 10 CS 501 Spring 2008 Bridge: Allowing for Alternate Implementations Name: Bridge design pattern Problem description: Decouple an interface from an implementation so that a different implementation can be substituted, possibly at runtime (e.g., testing different implementations of the same interface).

11. 11 CS 501 Spring 2008 Bridge: Class Diagram Client ConcreteImplementorA ConcreteImplementorB alternative implementations

12. 12 CS 501 Spring 2008 Bridge: Class Diagram Implementor Client ConcreteImplementorA ConcreteImplementorB

13. 13 CS 501 Spring 2008 Bridge: Class Diagram AbstractionImplementor Client ConcreteImplementorA ConcreteImplementorB whole/part association

14. 14 CS 501 Spring 2008 Bridge: Allowing for Alternate Implementations Solution: The Abstraction class defines the interface visible to the client. Implementor is an abstract class that defines the lower-level methods available to Abstraction. An Abstraction instance maintains a reference to its corresponding Implementor instance. Abstraction and Implementor can be refined independently.

15. 15 CS 501 Spring 2008 Bridge: Class Diagram Abstraction RefinedAbstraction Implementor Client ConcreteImplementorA ConcreteImplementorB new abstraction

16. 16 CS 501 Spring 2008 Bridge: Consequences Consequences: Client is shielded from abstract and concrete implementations Interfaces and implementations may be tested separately

17. 17 CS 501 Spring 2008 Strategy: Encapsulating Algorithms Name: Strategy design pattern Problem description: Decouple a policy-deciding class from a set of mechanisms, so that different mechanisms can be changed transparently. Example: A mobile computer can be used with a wireless network, or connected to an Ethernet, with dynamic switching between networks based on location and network costs.

18. 18 CS 501 Spring 2008 Strategy Example: Class Diagram for Mobile Computer NetworkInterface open() close() send() Application Ethernet open() close() send() WirelessNet open() close() send()

19. 19 CS 501 Spring 2008 Strategy Example: Class Diagram for Mobile Computer NetworkConnection send() setNetworkInterface() NetworkInterface open() close() send() ApplicationLocationManager Ethernet open() close() send() WirelessNet open() close() send() Note the similarities to Bridge pattern

20. 20 CS 501 Spring 2008 Strategy: Class Diagram Context contextInterface() Strategy algorithmInterface() Client ConcreteStrategy2 Policy ConcreteStrategy1

21. 21 CS 501 Spring 2008 Strategy: Encapsulating Algorithms Solution: A Client accesses services provided by a Context. The Context services are realized using one of several mechanisms, as decided by a Policy object. The abstract class Strategy describes the interface that is common to all mechanisms that Context can use. Policy class creates a ConcreteStrategy object and configures Context to use it.

22. 22 CS 501 Spring 2008 Strategy: Consequences Consequences: ConcreteStrategies can be substituted transparently from Context. Policy decides which Strategy is best, given the current circumstances. New policy algorithms can be added without modifying Context or Client.

23. 23 CS 501 Spring 2008 Composite: Representing Recursive Hierarchies Name: Composite design pattern Problem description: Represents a hierarchy of variable width and depth, so that the leaves and composites can be treated uniformly through a common interface. Solution: The Component interface specifies the services that are shared between Leaf and Composite. A Composite has an aggregation association with Components and implements each service by iterating over each contained Component. The Leaf services do the actual work.

24. 24 CS 501 Spring 2008 Composite: Class Diagram Composite Leaf Component * Client

25. 25 CS 501 Spring 2008 Composite: Consequences Consequences: Client uses the same code for dealing with Leaves or Composites. Leaf-specific behavior can be changed without changing the hierarchy. New classes of Leaves can be added without changing the hierarchy.

26. 26 CS 501 Spring 2008 Abstract Factory: Encapsulating Platforms Name: Abstract Factory design pattern Problem description: Shield the client from different platforms that provide different implementations of the same set of concepts Example: A user interface must have versions that implement the same set of concepts for several windowing systems, e.g., scroll bars, buttons, highlighting, etc.

27. 27 CS 501 Spring 2008 Abstract Factory: Encapsulating Platforms Solution: A platform (e.g., the application for a specific windowing system) is represented as a set of AbstractProducts, each representing a concept (e.g., button). An AbstractFactory class declares the operations for creating each individual product. A specific platform is then realized by a ConcreteFactory and a set of ConcreteProducts.

28. 28 CS 501 Spring 2008 Abstract Factory: Class Diagram ClientAbstractFactory createProductA createProductB AbstractProductA AbstractProductB

29. 29 CS 501 Spring 2008 Abstract Factory: Class Diagram ClientAbstractFactory createProductA createProductB ConcreteFactory1 createProductA createProductB AbstractProductA ProductA There could be several ConcreteFactory classes, each a subclass of AbstractFactory,

30. 30 CS 501 Spring 2008 Abstract Factory: Class Diagram ClientAbstractFactory createProductA createProductB ConcreteFactory1 createProductA createProductB AbstractProductA ProductA There could be several ConcreteFactory classes, each a subclass of AbstractFactory, AbstractProductB ProductB

31. 31 CS 501 Spring 2008 Abstract Factory: Consequences Consequences: Client is shielded from concrete products classes Substituting families at runtime is possible Adding new products is difficult since new realizations must be created for each factory

32. 32 CS 501 Spring 2008 Command: Encapsulating Control Flow Name: Command design pattern Problem description: Encapsulates requests so that they can be executed, undone, or queued independently of the request. Solution: A Command abstract class declares the interface supported by all ConcreteCommands. ConcreteCommands encapsulate a service to be applied to a Receiver.

33. 33 CS 501 Spring 2008 Command Example: Class Diagram for Match GameBoard Move play() replay() GameMove play() replay() Match invokes

34. 34 CS 501 Spring 2008 Command: Class Diagram Receiver1 Command execute() ConcreteCommand1 execute() Invoker invokes

35. 35 CS 501 Spring 2008 Command: Consequences Consequences: The object of the command (Receiver) and the algorithm of the command (ConcreteCommand) are decoupled. Invoker is shielded from specific commands. ConcreteCommands are objects. They can be created and stored. New ConcreteCommands can be added without changing existing code.

36. 36 CS 501 Spring 2008 Facade: Encapsulating Subsystems Name: Facade design pattern Problem description: Reduce coupling between a set of related classes and the rest of the system. Solution: A single Facade class implements a high-level interface for a subsystem by invoking the methods of the lower-level classes. Example. A Compiler is composed of several classes: LexicalAnalyzer, Parser, CodeGenerator, etc. A caller, invokes only the Compiler (Facade) class, which invokes the contained classes.

37. 37 CS 501 Spring 2008 Facade: Class Diagram Facade service() Class1 service1() Class2 service2() Class3 service3() Facade

38. 38 CS 501 Spring 2008 Facade: Consequences Consequences: Shields a client from the low-level classes of a subsystem. Simplifies the use of a subsystem by providing higher-level methods. Enables lower-level classes to be restructured without changes to clients. Note. The repeated use of Facade patterns yields a layered system.

39. 39 CS 501 Spring 2008 Proxy: Encapsulating Expensive Objects Name: Proxy design pattern Problem description: Improve performance or security of a system by delaying expensive computations, using memory only when needed, or checking access before loading an object into memory. Solution: The ProxyObject class acts on behalf of a RealObject class. Both implement the same interface. ProxyObject stores a subset of the attributes of RealObject. ProxyObject handles certain requests, whereas others are delegated to RealObject. After delegation, the RealObject is created and loaded into memory.

40. 40 CS 501 Spring 2008 Proxy: Class Diagram Object filename op1() op2() RealObject data:byte[] op1() op2() ProxyObject filename op1() op2() 1 0..1 Client

41. 41 CS 501 Spring 2008 Proxy: Consequences Consequences: Adds a level of indirection between Client and RealObject. The Client is shielded from any optimization for creating RealObjects.

42. 42 CS 501 Spring 2008 Observer: Encapsulating Control Flow Name: Observer design pattern Problem description: Maintains consistency across state of one Subject and many Observers. Solution: A Subject has a primary function to maintain some state (e.g., a data structure). One or more Observers use this state, which introduces redundancy between the states of Subject and Observer. Observer invokes the subscribe() method to synchronize the state. Whenever the state changes, Subject invokes its notify() method to iteratively invoke each Observer.update() method.

43. 43 CS 501 Spring 2008 Observer: Class Diagram Subject subscribe() unsubscribe() notify() subscribers ConcreteSubject state getstate() setstate() Observer update() ConcreteObserver observeState update() 1 *

44. 44 CS 501 Spring 2008 Observer: Consequences Consequences: Decouples Subject, which maintains state, from Observers, who make use of the state. Can result in many spurious broadcasts when the state of Subject changes.
