I’m working on the issue of design patterns. In this case I want to implement design pattern ‘Facade‘
I know that ‘Cocoa Touch‘ offers us complete solutions for applying design patterns in our projects (for example NSNotificationCenter – implements observer design pattern)
My questions is next: – do we have ability to using design pattern ‘Facade‘ as well as in the case of the observer design pattern.
Now I implement ‘Facade‘ like this:
For example i have some classes which implements some calculations. The ‘Facade‘ class combine all classes which I needed to calculations.
For example i have classes A, B, C and Facade (which contain A, B and C classes).
When I want to calculate something I just create my ‘Facade‘ and pass some argument for calculation. In this case I don’t know about classes A, B, C and this Facade object provides me one access point only.
This design pattern encapsulates objects and simplifies the application.
Is it correct implementation?
Another a good example for implementing facade pattern – pizza call service.
For example, pizza service (subsystem) is very large and it consists of three departments (interfaces) : order department, discount department, delivery department. Each departments has own logic and interfaces.
You can simply implement facade pattern on it.
Here this example in more details.
