Java Design Patterns Part1

The document explains two design patterns: the Singleton Pattern and the Factory Method Pattern. The Singleton Pattern ensures a single instance of a class with a global access point, exemplified by a PrinterSpooler class. The Factory Method Pattern allows subclasses to determine the type of objects created, illustrated through a PizzaFactory that produces different types of pizzas based on client requests.

1.

Singleton Pattern
Definition: Ensures only one instance of a class is created and provides a global point of access to

it.

Analogy: Imagine a print spooler - your computer must have one and only one print manager to

handle all printing jobs.

Code Example:

class PrinterSpooler {
private static PrinterSpooler instance = new PrinterSpooler();
private PrinterSpooler() {
System.out.println("Spooler Initialized.");
}
public static PrinterSpooler getInstance() {
return instance;
}
public void print(String doc) {
System.out.println("Printing: " + doc);
}
}

public class Main {


public static void main(String[] args) {
PrinterSpooler spooler = PrinterSpooler.getInstance();
spooler.print("DesignPatterns.pdf");
}
}

When to Use: Logging, Configuration Manager, Database connection pool

2. Factory Method Pattern


Definition: Provides an interface for creating objects in a superclass, but allows subclasses to alter

the type of objects that will be created.

Analogy: Think of a pizza store. You order a pizza, and the store decides whether to give you a Veg

or a Non-Veg pizza.

Code Example:

interface Pizza {
void prepare();
}

class VegPizza implements Pizza {


public void prepare() {
System.out.println("Preparing Veg Pizza");
}
}

class ChickenPizza implements Pizza {


public void prepare() {
System.out.println("Preparing Chicken Pizza");
}
}

class PizzaFactory {
public Pizza getPizza(String type) {
if (type.equalsIgnoreCase("veg")) return new VegPizza();
else if (type.equalsIgnoreCase("chicken")) return new ChickenPizza();
return null;
}
}

public class Main {


public static void main(String[] args) {
PizzaFactory factory = new PizzaFactory();
Pizza pizza = factory.getPizza("veg");
pizza.prepare();
}
}

When to Use: When object creation logic needs to be hidden from the client.
