ISBN: 0-201-74397-3, 496 pages

Java programmers, you now have the resource you need to harness the considerable power of design patterns This unique book presents examples, exercises, and challenges that will help you apply design pattern theory to real-world problems Steve Metsker's learn-by-doing approach helps you enhance your practical skills and build the confidence you need to use design patterns effectively in mission-critical applications

Design Patterns Java(TM) Workbook features the twenty-three foundational design patterns introduced in the classic book Design Patterns (Addison-Wesley, 1995) In this new, hands-on workbook, the patterns are organized into five major categories: interfaces, responsibility, construction, operations, and extensions Each category begins with a chapter that reviews and challenges your ability to apply facilities built into Java These introductory sections are followed by chapters that explain a particular pattern in detail, demonstrate the pattern in use with UML diagrams and Java code, and provide programming problems for you to solve With this book you will build expertise in important areas such as:

Adapting domain data to Swing components Creating a FACADE for Swing

Handling recursion in composites

Understanding the role of BRIDGE in Java database connectivity

Making the connection between Model/View/Controller and OBSERVER Maintaining relational integrity with a mediator

Using proxies to communicate between computers

Letting a service provider decide which class to instantiate Supporting undo operations with MEMENTO

Prototyping with clones

Using COMMAND to supply a service Developing thread-safe iterators

Extending classes with DECORATOR and VISITOR

Solutions to the design pattern challenges appear in the back of the book, so you can compare your own work to expert approaches A brief guide to UML explains the modeling notation, and an accompanying Web site provides all the code examples from the book

Dedication

To Alison

Who fills our house with glimmering light With her loving, cozy fire

And Emma-Kate and Sarah-Jane Our precious elves, beloved sprites Who hop as light as bird from brier

Through the house give glimmering light By the dead and drowsy fire;

Every elf and fairy sprite Hop as light as bird from brier;

—William Shakespeare
