Design pattern with Java

What is Design pattern ?

A design pattern is a well described solution to a common software problem. Some problems are re occuring when developing softwares.Design patterns provides industry standard approach to solve a recurring problem, so it saves time if we sensibly use the design pattern. Design patterns promotes reusability that leads to more robust and highly maintainable code. For this tutorial we use java language. So we will learn java based design patterns.

Categories of Design Patterns

• Creational Design Patterns
  1. Singleton Pattern

Creational Design Patterns

Creation design patterns use for object creations. Some situation objects should initiate in different ways. for example object should create when the JVM instance is up or object create on demand or else object should initiate with certain restrictions. So creation design patter used for creating objects.

Structural patterns

Structural patterns ease the design by identifying a simple way to realize relationships between entities.Structural patterns provide different ways to create a class structure, as example using inheritance and composition to create a large object from small objects.

Behavioral patterns

Behavioral patterns provide solution for the better interaction between objects and how to provide lose coupling and flexibility to extend easily. The implementation and the client should be loosely coupled in order to avoid hard coding and dependencies
