What is wrong with this picture? Ball Enemy Private: Private: double gravity 32.1 double gravity 32.1 Don’t repeat yourself!
How about this? Global double gravity 3.21 We’re not using a constant because we want to support different worlds with different gravitational forces.
Why not use globals? • They make code hard to debug. • They make code hard to change. • Profs O’Neill and Kuenning will haunt your dreams if you do. Answer: All of the above This is a Design Pattern....
Design Patterns • Description of the problem. • Essence of a solution • Description of accumulated knowledge. • Book: Design Patterns, by gang of 4. • Web page devoted to software Design Patterns: http://hillside.net
Elements of a Design Pattern • Name that is meaningful • Description of the problem area that explains when the pattern may be applied • A solution description of the parts of the design solution, their relationships, and their responsibilities. • not a concrete design description, but a template • many times expressed graphically - UML • Statement of the consequences of applying the pattern • results and trade-offs • used to indicate applicability
Using Design Patterns • Is a design process • develop a design • experiencing a problem • recognizing that an existing pattern can be used • most difficult step is the need for a taxonomy of Design Patterns
Singleton Pattern Problem: Ensure a class has only one instance and provide a global point of access to that instance.
Singleton Gravity Class class Gravity { public: static Gravity* getInstance(); double getGravity(); private: static Gravity* theGravityInstance; Gravity() {}; ~Gravity) {}; Gravity(const Gravity& toCopy) {}; Gravity& operator=(const Gravity& toCopy) {}; }; Gravity::Gravity* theGravityInstance = NULL; users can ask for a pointer to THE instance and then get the value for gravity the constructor is private
Problem: You need to use a subset of a complex system or you need to interact with the system in a particular way. façade Design Pattern
A facade is an object that provides a simplified interface to a larger body of code, such as a class library. A facade can make a software lib easier to use, understand and test. A facade can make code more readable because it has convenient methods for common tasks A facade can reduce dependencies of outside code on library inner workings. A facade is a wrapper façade

Strategy design pattern Problem: Want to be able to swap the algorithm used in an application at runtime Solution: Strategy pattern defines a family of algorithms, encapsulates each one, and makes them interchangeable Strategy DP lets the algorithm vary independently from the clients that use it.
I want to support two (or more) different collision detection algorithms. cPhysicsEngine Encapsulate change cPhysicsFast cPhysicsSlow In the future I may want to use a super slow algorithm.
Strategy Design Pattern cPhysicsEngine cDetectCollision • supports several design principles: • encapsulate change • open-closed principle • single responsibility principles • favor composition over inheritance cDetectCollisionFast cDetectCollisionSlow
Bridge Pattern Problem: Want to decouple implementation from abstraction so they can change independently A teacher (Communicator object) can talk to any kid (talkable object), and a kid should also allow any teacher (Communicator object) to start talking to him/her as well. Just like how printers work with computers. If we have a USB cable (bridge), then we can connect any printer to any computer to start printing. It really doesn't matter if it's a laser printer or a color printer, either Windows PC or Mac. Because we know all the printers will allow the computers to print, makes sense?

State Design Pattern Problem: want to allow an object to alter its behavior when its internal state changes
State Design Pattern PaintProgram processKey processMouse Mode processKey processMouse 1 Spray Paint Eraser Fill supports open-closed, encapsulate change, single responsibility principles
State Design Pattern Mode mgr. returns pointer to correct mode, i.e., Key or Mouse handling function PaintProgram processKey processMouse Mode processKey processMouse 1 1 ModeManager processKey processMouse Spray Paint Eraser Fill 1 1 1
Command Design Pattern Encapsulate a request as an object to permit logging, queuing, un-doing etc. an object is used to represent and encapsulate all the info needed to call a method at a later time. Includes method name, object that owns that method and values for any parms,.

MVC Design PatternModel-view-Controller • The pattern isolates “domain logic” (application logic for the user) from the user interface permitting independent development, testing and maintenance of each (separation of concerns) • user interacts with user interface, e.g., button • controller converts into understandable action for the model • controller tells model of user action (model state may change) • view queries model to generate user interface; view gets its date from model. • view may render itself or is notified by model of changes in state that require screen update
MVC supports high cohesion and low coupling
