Week 4

This week we discussed Factory Method, Adapter and Iterator plus made a start on Visitor.

Numbers were up a bit on last week and we used the Postgraduate Common Room for our session which was a nicer space than the class room for a seminar - I just hope we didn't disturb the other students in there.

6 students have now linked their blogs into this one via the comments link. Interestingly however they aren't linking in on the current week but on the week that first catches their eye.

I have now added Dr Sri's introductory patterns lectures to the unit web page which should be of help to the St Patrick's students.

Hi Jane,

I found the lecture last week quite interesting. I found it interesting that certain patterns such as Iterator were processes we were thought to use in the second year and some of us still use them without being aware that they are patterns for software development.

Hi Jane,

Just found this site on the internet; its aimed at C# users.

Seems to support the C# book, which is lacking in the UML department.

Design Patterns in C# and VB.NET - Gang of Four (GOF)
http://www.dofactory.com/Patterns/Patterns.aspx#list

See you Monday,

Will

Hi Jane,

I started Task Four of the coursework today, and thought I should point out that the reference to "Notes Of the Synthesis of Form" should actually be "Notes on the synthesis of form".

If anyone else is thinking about doing this task, it is a text by Alexander that discusses the process of design.

Kester.

Thank you Kester for spotting the typo.

And thank you Will for the link to some C# examples
