Design Patterns and Best Practices
Design Patterns and Best Practices
Design patterns provide standard solutions to common software design problems, helping to make
code more flexible, reusable, and maintainable. Alongside these, following best practices is
essential for writing clean and efficient Java code.
Key Concepts:
- Singleton Pattern: Ensures only one instance of a class exists.
- Factory Pattern: Abstracts the creation process of objects.
- Observer Pattern: Defines a subscription mechanism to notify multiple objects about events.
- SOLID Principles: Guidelines (Single Responsibility, Open/Closed, Liskov Substitution, Interface
Segregation, Dependency Inversion) for effective object-oriented design.
Example (Singleton):
--------------------------------
public class Singleton {
private static Singleton instance;
private Singleton() { }
