What do you call the design where the object’s constructor is responsible for all/any subsequent actions. Usage of this class involves simply creating an instance and then it’s all fire-and-forget.

A silly example:

public class Order
{
   public Order(int ammount,Product type)
   {
       Ammount = ammount;
       Namespace.OrderManager.RegisterNewOrder(this);
       Namespace.WarehouseManager.Substract(this);          
       Namespace.OrderManager.Invoice(this);
       Namespace.DeliveryManager.Deliver(this);
       .. well, you get the point;

   }

   // Called back later from DeliveryManager
   public void OrderHasBeenDelivered()
   { 
       //save some data to the DB, or notify the UI
   }

   // Called back later from OrderManager
   public void OrderHasBeenCanceled()
   {
       Namespace.DeliveryManager.CancelDelivery(this);
   } 
}

… usage of the Order class :

   public void CreateOrder_click(object sender, EventArgs e)
  {
            new Order(50, CDs);
            new Order(10, DVDs);
            new Order(10, DVDs);

  }

Edit:

Well, the difference between using this and a simple static method, is that the newly created Order object is going to be used in many different places, just not by the function/thread/object that created it.

I simply create the order object, it registers itself with the OrderManager, then the OrderManager will close the order at a later time. I don’t throw the object away per-se, it will continue to exist in the app.
