Book Description
This new workbook complements the classic Design Patterns,
giving Java developers hands-on experience in transforming pattern
concepts into working designs and code. Steven John Metsker presents
nearly 90 practical pattern exercises, encompassing all 23 patterns
first introduced in Design Patterns, and others that have since been
identified. Metsker organizes Java design patterns by five categories of
"intent": interfaces, responsibility, construction, operations, and
extensions. Each section of the book focuses on one category,
identifying the relevant challenges facing Java developers, and showing
how specific patterns can be used to solve problems that recur in Java
development and cannot easily be solved without their use. A Solutions
chapter provides Metsker's detailed solutions to each problem, including
-- where necessary -- UML diagrams. The accompanying CD-ROM contains
all code from the book, plus additional bonus code not included in the
book. For all Java developers who want to use patterns to improve their
software.
