    Description of The Design Patterns Java Workbook

    The Publisher writes:
    Java programmers now have the resource they need to harness the considerable power of design patterns. Design Patterns Java™ Workbook presents examples, exercises, and challenges that enable you to grapple with alternative approaches and discover practical subtleties in applying design pattern theory to realistic problems. Steve Metsker's learn-by-doing approach lets you enhance your practical skills and helps you build the confidence you need to use design patterns in mission-critical applications.
    Design Patterns Java Workbook features the 23 foundational design patterns introduced in the classic book Design Patterns (Addison Wesley, 1995). In this 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 each explain a particular pattern, demonstrate the pattern in use with UML diagrams and Java code, and set up workbook challenges for you to solve.
    Using this book you will build expertise in important topics such as:
    Adapting domain data to Swing components
    Creating a FACADE for Swing
    Handling recursion in composites
    The role of BRIDGE in Java database connectivity
    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.
    Through the instruction and exercises offered in Design Patterns Java Workbook, you can fully understand the role of design patterns in Java application development, and enhance your ability to put design patterns to work.
