The observer design pattern is a behavioural pattern listed among the 23 well-known "Gang of Four" design patterns that address recurring design challenges in order to design flexible and reusable object-oriented software, yielding objects that are easier to implement, change, test and reuse.
In a Java (AWT/Swing/SWT) application, the MVP pattern can be used by letting the user interface class implement a view interface. The same approach can be used for Java web-based applications, since modern Java component-based Web frameworks allow development of client-side logic using the same component approach as thick clients.
In software engineering, a software design pattern or design pattern is a general, reusable solution to a commonly occurring problem in many contexts in software design. [1] A design pattern is not a rigid structure to be transplanted directly into source code.
Design Patterns: Elements of Reusable Object-Oriented Software (1994) is a software engineering book describing software design patterns.The book was written by Erich Gamma, Richard Helm, Ralph Johnson, and John Vlissides, with a foreword by Grady Booch.
Signals and slots is a language construct introduced in Qt [1] for communication between objects which makes it easy to implement the observer pattern while avoiding boilerplate code. The concept is that GUI widgets , and other objects, can send signals containing event information which can be received by other objects using special member ...
A chat room could use the mediator pattern, or a system where many ‘clients’ each receive a message each time one of the other clients performs an action (for chat rooms, this would be when each person sends a message). In reality using the mediator pattern for a chat room would only be practical when used with remoting.
ReactiveX is a combination of ideas from the observer and the iterator patterns and from functional programming. [2] An observer subscribes to an observable sequence. The sequence then sends the items to the observer one at a time, usually by calling the provided callback function. The observer handles each one before processing the next one.
The java code as of date is using an observer library, but doesn't really explain how the actual pattern is implemented which should be the point of the article. -- Popoi ( talk ) 17:27, 29 November 2012 (UTC) [ reply ]
