    Study Notes

    Creational Patterns

    • Creational design patterns deal with object creation mechanisms, aiming to create objects in a manner suitable for the situation.
    • Five main types of creational patterns include:
      • Abstract Factory: Provides an interface for creating families of related or dependent objects.
      • Builder: Separates the construction of a complex object from its representation.
      • Factory Method: Defines an interface for creating an object, allowing subclasses to decide the class to instantiate.
      • Prototype: Creates objects based on a prototypical instance, enhancing performance and memory efficiency.
      • Singleton: Ensures a class has only one instance, providing a global access point.

    Abstract Factory

    • Problem Identification:

      • Applications need to remain independent of object creation details.
      • Classes require independence in the creation of objects they use.
      • Families of related objects need to be created efficiently and uniformly.

    • Solution Strategy:

      • Encapsulate object creation within a factory object, using an interface for defined object creation.
      • Allow classes to delegate object creation to the factory, enhancing flexibility.

    • Advantages:

      • Promotes decoupling by avoiding direct instantiation within classes.
      • Facilitates the interchangeability of concrete implementations without altering dependent code.
      • Supports runtime changes in object creation.

    Builder

    • Problem Identification:

      • Need to separate complex object construction from its representation to simplify class management.

    • Solution Strategy:

      • Utilize a builder object to manage the creation of complex object parts, thus varying internal representations.

    • Advantages and Disadvantages:

      • Advantages:
        • Allows for flexible internal representation of objects.
        • Encapsulation of the construction and representation logic.
      • Disadvantages:
        • Requires distinct builder classes for each object type.
        • Builder classes must support mutability, which could complicate implementations.

    Factory Method

    • Problem Identification:

      • Need to create objects dynamically at runtime while keeping the object creation process abstract.

    • Solution Strategy:

      • Implement a factory method within a class that subclasses can override to customize object instantiation.

    • Benefits:

      • Reduces code duplication by centralizing the object creation process.
      • Allows complex object creation processes to be cleanly abstracted away from the composing object’s duties.

    Overall Importance of Creational Patterns

    • Creational patterns provide a more flexible and reusable way to manage object creation. This can lead to improved code organization, easier maintenance, and enhanced testing capabilities through techniques like dependency injection and mock object usage.### Factory Method Pattern
    • CarABSController and TruckABSController are subclasses of ABSController that implement the factory method makeABSSensor().
    • Each subclass creates a specific type of ABS sensor: CarABSSensor for cars and TruckABSSensor for trucks.
    • The subclass decision on sensor type occurs at runtime, allowing flexibility and avoiding hardcoded dependencies.
    • In the BenzABSController test code, instances of both CarABSController and TruckABSController are created and utilized.

    Prototype Pattern

    • The Prototype pattern addresses the need to instantiate classes at runtime rather than compile-time, allowing more dynamic object creation.
    • A Prototype object is defined to return a copy of itself, enabling new objects to be created by cloning.
    • This pattern avoids the need for subclassing to create object instances, unlike the factory method pattern.
    • Cloning is generally cheaper than instantiating new objects, improving efficiency.
    • Prototype objects can be configured and modified at runtime, providing increased flexibility.

    Prototype Pattern Use Case

    • Example scenario: Camera system implementation for the Mars Rover, where different types of images (black & white for obstacle detection, color for scientific purposes) are required.

    Prototype Example Code

    • ImageBuffer is an abstract prototype that utilizes cloning.
    • ImageBW and ImageRGB are concrete implementations of ImageBuffer, each overriding the clone() method.
    • BufferMaker class holds single instances of ImageBW and ImageRGB and provides a method to create new image buffers by cloning the prototypes.
    • In the MarsRover test code, multiple image buffers are created from the prototypes using the BufferMaker.

    Singleton Pattern

    • The Singleton pattern ensures that only a single instance of a class is created, providing a global point of access.
    • The constructor of the class is made private to restrict instantiation from outside the class.
    • A public static method (getInstance()) returns the sole instance, which is stored in a private static variable.
    • The pattern can introduce global state but is preferred over uncontrolled global variables.

    Singleton Example Code

    • Logger class employs the Singleton pattern to provide logging capabilities.
    • It has a private static final instance and a private constructor to prevent external instantiation.
    • The getInstance() method provides access to the logger instance.
    • The logging count can be incremented and retrieved through instance methods.
