DESCRIPTION:
Despite the passing of the 10th anniversary of the famous
book "Design Patterns: Elements of Reusable
Object-Oriented Design," there remains a lack of
understanding and experience in applying design patterns to
common development problems, and Eclipse RCP development is
no exception. In this advanced class, you will see
real-world examples clearly illustrating the benefits of
applying design patterns, emphasizing patterns beneficial to
RCP applications. The class will begin with a definition and
brief history of design patterns, and an overview of their
benefits; we'll then jump right into specific patterns that
help with Eclipse RCP projects. To help demonstrate the
benefits of design patterns, we'll analyze RCP components
written without design patterns, and examine problems
encountered when attempting to add features to those
components. Next, we'll show how to fix those problems with
just a few refactorings. This advanced class is for
developers and architects who are
experienced with Java and Eclipse RCP development and are
familiar with object-oriented design principles and design
patterns.
