Design Patterns in C# 7.0

In this repository I am doing some exercises and examples about the GOF design patterns in C# 7, so it's pretty much updated. There is an exercise.jpg file on each project folder that is an exercise, and the solution is on the Exercise.cs file (with the Main method), there are also some other practical examples.

These examples are for Structural Patterns, Creational Patterns and Behavioral Patterns, it means that Design Patterns are standards that deal with project structures, facilitating communication between their entities. In this way they treat the way objects and classes are arranged in a project in order to form more complex structures.

There are also Architecture Patterns, that stands out for MVC (Model-View-Controller) or MVVM (Model View View-Model) that won't be covered in this repository.

This Repository was made for academic research only.

This Repository covers ALL the repositories proposed by GoF (The gang of four) and the SOLID principles:

SOLID Design Principles: Single Responsibility Principle, Open-Closed Principle, Liskov Substitution Principle, Interface Segregation Principle and Dependency Inversion Principle
Creational Design Patterns: Builder, Factories (Factory Method and Abstract Factory), Prototype and Singleton
Structrural Design Patterns: Adapter, Bridge, Composite, Decorator, Façade, Flyweight and Proxy
Behavioral Design Patterns: Chain of Responsibility, Command, Interpreter, Iterator, Mediator, Memento, Null Object, Observer, State, Strategy, Template Method and Visitor

Note that this repository stands for KISS (keep it stupid simple) so there are no separation of class in files or helper classes, all is done in one document.

/*Some considerations: */

What are Design Patterns?

"Design Patterns are reusable solutions to common programming problems. They were popularized with the 1994 book Design Patterns: Elements of Reusable Object-Oriented Software by Erich Gamma, John Vlissides, Ralph Johnson and Richard Helm (who are commonly known as a Gang of Four, hence the GoF acronym).

The original book was written using C++ and Smalltalk as examples, but since then, design patterns have been adapted to every programming language imaginable: C#, Java, PHP and even programming languages that aren't strictly object-oriented, such as JavaScript.

The appeal of design patterns is immortal: we see them in libraries, some of them are intrinsic in programming languages, and you probably use them on a daily basis even if you don't realize they are there."

When to use the Builder and the Factory?

"The Builder is only needed when an object cannot be produced in one step. One great an example of this would be in the de-serialization process for a complex object. Often times the parameters for the complex object must be retrieved one by one."

What's the difference between the Composite Pattern and the Builder Pattern?

"The composite pattern is used when you have a situation when you need to construct Parent and Child, like a dynamic menubar. Or even when you might want to have a single object (like a sum of values) or many values on a row."

What's the difference between the Proxy Pattern and the Decorator?

Proxy provides an identical interface, the decorator provides an enhanced interface

The Decorator typically aggregates (or has references to) what it is decorating; proxy doesn't have to

Proxy might not even be working with a materialized object

Proxy is an implementation of lazy of the whole type for eg.

Use of dotMemory profiling in the Flyweight design pattern

In the solution of the Flyweight pattern I make use of the JetBrains (www.jetbrains.com) dotMemory profiler to make some profiling on my tests of the pattern. Documentation can be see here: https://www.jetbrains.com/help/dotmemory/Working_with_dotMemory_Command-Line_Profiler.html although it is not so well documented if you have a free version.
