    Hey Christopher, when you mention you use the Decorator pattern when trying to deprecate the usage of some class, wouldn't an Adapter/Facade pattern be better for that? I'm new to design patterns so I'm just trying to analyze it a bit :) BTW, when is the next pattern coming out?

    • @ChristopherOkhravi
      @ChristopherOkhravi  7 років тому +185

      Excellent question! While filming, this question struck me as well. It's really quite hairy. They are deviously similar and I keep forgetting the nuances :) TLDR; I agree with you. But, let's define the concepts...
      1) The adapter adapter pattern changes the interface but does not change the implementation.
      2) The proxy pattern changes the implementation but does not change the interface.
      3) The decorator pattern changes the implementation but does not change the interface.
      4) The facade pattern is a high-level level abstraction over low-level components, where the interface is changed.
      So, I guess it boils down to proxy vs decorator.
      The deprecation example I gave could, depending on the scenario, probably be technically considered decorator pattern. But then again, it's a too simplistic example that doesn't really take advantage of the true power of decorator pattern. So I agree with your comment.
      Further, my example becomes even more silly if we look at it in a statically typed language (I usually work in dynamically typed languages and was thinking of that when I blurted out the example). In the decorator pattern we have the two interfaces Component and Decorator. The old class we want to deprecate is a Component, but if we were to use Decorator Pattern to deprecate it then the new concrete class would have to be a Decorator which in turn is a Component. From an abstraction point of view, this is actually a good thing because the abstract Decorator could then make sure to delegate all method calls to the decorated Component, which leaves the concrete Decorator with the job of only implementing the few methods it wants to change. But then again... this is probably massive overkill, and you'd be better off just throwing in a proxy where the proxied object is dependency injected into the proxy.
      Interesting excursion :) Thank you for the comment. I need to think my examples through a bit better before rocking it :)
      Ps. I've got an older video on Adapter vs Facade vs Proxy here: ua-cam.com/video/hTC3rmRBIxs/v-deo.html

    • @bot-bot
      @bot-bot 7 років тому +35

      Thank you for a very detailed and educational answer :)
      I still haven't touched the Proxy pattern which I'll do next and that is probably the reason why Adapter and Facade were the first that came to mind. For now it makes sense why and how to use the Decorator for deprecation even if it is an overkill.
      It's good to have these examples in your videos because they give us the opportunity to think about them and ask when unclear, so keep it up, it's all good :)
      I enjoy the Code Walks as well, especially liked the one about VR/AR and moving coding away from the monitor+keyboard environment!

    I'm EXTREMELY happy that I recently found your channel. Been watching your design patterns playlist in order and I've been actually getting pretty excited about implementing them in my code! So far, I've found the talks about Observer and this one about decorators to be suuupperr helpful with a thread-safe logging library I'm making for use in other personal projects where the observer pattern is used in managing multiple loggers and progress indication bars and this decorator pattern is used in the logger sinks and progress bar attributes. Again, Thank You for making easy-to-digest videos as they have been super helpful in grasping new concepts so far!

    @jonp9511 7 років тому

    Christopher, thank you so much. I finally came across your channel today when searching for info on the decorator design pattern(liked and subscribed). It is exactly what I have been looking for. I go to school online and sadly there is little to no actual "face-to-face" instruction. By that I mean, we have assignments, and are essentially left to own to figure out how to work through them. In fact the class I am taking now does not even have an accompanying textbook. I don't learn well by relying on slow email correspondence ( I am a busy man) to drive some complex principles home. Sometimes I need to have things broken down into very simple terms and viewed from several different angles to finally sink in, so that I can actually use it in practice and not just theory. Your approach here is exactly what the Dr ordered. Again, thank you very much.
