A sample UML class and sequence diagram for the Flyweight design pattern. [6] The above UML class diagram shows: the Client class, which uses the flyweight pattern; the FlyweightFactory class, which creates and shares Flyweight objects; the Flyweight interface, which takes in extrinsic state and performs an operation
In software engineering, a class diagram [1] in the Unified Modeling Language (UML) is a type of static structure diagram that describes the structure of a system by showing the system's classes, their attributes, operations (or methods), and the relationships among objects. The class diagram is the main building block of object-oriented modeling.
A Character Large OBject (or CLOB) is part of the SQL:1999 standard data types. It is a collection of character data in a database management system , usually stored in a separate location that is referenced in the table itself.
An object graph is a view of an object system at a particular point in time. Unlike a normal data model such as a Unified Modeling Language (UML) class diagram, which details the relationships between classes, the object graph relates their instances. Object diagrams are subsets of the overall object graph.
Composition over inheritance (or composite reuse principle) in object-oriented programming (OOP) is the principle that classes should favor polymorphic behavior and code reuse by their composition (by containing instances of other classes that implement the desired functionality) over inheritance from a base or parent class.

"An object diagram is a graph of instances, including objects and data values. A static object diagram is an instance of a class diagram; it shows a snapshot of the detailed state of a system at a point in time. The use of object diagrams is fairly limited, namely to show examples of data structure."
A class diagram exemplifying the singleton pattern. In object-oriented programming, the singleton pattern is software design pattern that restricts the instantiation of a class to a singular instance. It is one of the well-known "Gang of Four" design patterns, which describe how to solve recurring problems in object-oriented software. [1]
