Component Patterns
This section takes you on a journey through component design, focusing on creating and enhancing software components to fulfill specific goals. It navigates the architectural landscapes of software design, employing renowned Gang of Four design patterns to craft robust, maintainable, and flexible components.
Chapter 11, Structural Patterns, introduces structural patterns, showcasing the Decorator, Composite, Adapter, and Façade patterns. These patterns empower developers to extend classes dynamically (open-closed principle), manage complex object structures, bridge incompatible interfaces without changing existing code, and provide simpler interfaces to complex systems, which can significantly ease the integration and maintenance effort of subsystems.
Chapter 12, Behavioral Patterns, focuses on the Template Method and Chain of Responsibility patterns—two behavioral patterns crucial for managing shared logic and simplifying complex operations...
