  2. Method chaining - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Method_chaining

    Method chaining is a common syntax for invoking multiple method calls in object-oriented programming languages. Each method returns an object, allowing the calls to be chained together in a single statement without requiring variables to store the intermediate results.

  3. Fluent interface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluent_interface

    In software engineering, a fluent interface is an object-oriented API whose design relies extensively on method chaining. Its goal is to increase code legibility by creating a domain-specific language (DSL). The term was coined in 2005 by Eric Evans and Martin Fowler. [1]

  4. Method cascading - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Method_cascading

    Cascading can be implemented in terms of chaining by having the methods return the target object (receiver, this, self).However, this requires that the method be implemented this way already – or the original object be wrapped in another object that does this – and that the method not return some other, potentially useful value (or nothing if that would be more appropriate, as in setters).

  5. Object-based language - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Object-based_language

    An object-based language is a programming language that provides a construct to encapsulate state and behavior as an object. A language that also supports inheritance or subtyping is classified as object-oriented. [1] Even though object-oriented seems like a superset of object-based, they are used as mutually exclusive alternatives, rather than ...

  6. Visitor pattern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visitor_pattern

    The Visitor [1] design pattern is one of the twenty-three well-known Gang of Four design patterns that describe how to solve recurring design problems to design flexible and reusable object-oriented software, that is, objects that are easier to implement, change, test, and reuse.

  7. Object-oriented programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Object-oriented_programming

    The object-oriented Simula programming language was used mainly by researchers involved with physical modelling, such as models to study and improve the movement of ships and their content through cargo ports. [10] Simula is generally accepted as being the first language with the primary features and framework of an object-oriented language. [11]

  8. Multiton pattern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiton_pattern

    Rather than having a single instance per application (e.g. the java.lang.Runtime object in the Java programming language) the multiton pattern instead ensures a single instance per key. The multiton pattern does not explicitly appear as a pattern in the highly regarded object-oriented programming textbook Design Patterns. [1]

    Adapter Java Design Patterns - Adapter; Delegation, strongly relevant to the object adapter pattern. Dependency inversion principle, which can be thought of as applying the adapter pattern, when the high-level class defines its own (adapter) interface to the low-level module (implemented by an adaptee class).
