Understanding Design Patterns: Types & Scope

The document classifies design patterns by purpose and scope. There are three purposes - creational patterns concern object creation, structural patterns deal with class or object composition, and behavioral patterns characterize class or object interaction. Patterns can apply to either classes or objects. Class patterns deal with inheritance relationships while object patterns deal with dynamic runtime relationships. Creational class patterns defer creation to subclasses while creational object patterns defer to other objects.

We classify Design patterns by 2 criteria. 1. Purpose 2.

Scope

Purpose reflects what a pattern does Scope specifies whether the pattern applies primarily to classes or to Objects
Purpose

Creational Creational patterns concern the process of Object creation

Structural Structural patterns deal with the composition of classes or objects

Behavioral These patterns characterize the ways in which classes or objects interact & distribute responsibility

Class patterns deal with relationships between classes & their subclasses. These relationships established with inheritance , so they are static fixed at compile-time. Object patterns deal with object relationships , which can be changed at runtime & are more dynamic

Creational class patterns defer some part of object creation to subclasses, while creational object patterns defer it to another object. The structural class patterns use inheritance to compose classes , while the structural object patterns describe ways to assemble objects. The Behavioral class patterns use inheritance to describe algorithms & flow of control , where as the Behavioral object patterns describe how a group of objects cooperate to perform a task that no single object can carry out alone.
