Le Pont est un patron de conception structurel qui scinde la logique métier ou divise de grandes classes dans des hiérarchies de classes séparées qui vont ensuite évoluer indépendamment.
Une de ces hiérarchies (souvent appelée l’abstraction) gardera une référence vers un objet de la seconde hiérarchie (l’implémentation). L’abstraction pourra déléguer certains (parfois la majorité) de ses appels aux objets de l’implémentation. Puisque toutes les implémentations ont une interface commune, elles sont interchangeables à l’intérieur de l’abstraction.
Exemple conceptuel
Dans cet exemple, nous allons voir la structure du Pont et répondre aux questions suivantes :
Que contiennent les classes ?
Quels rôles jouent-elles ?
Comment les éléments du patron sont-ils reliés ?
Après avoir étudié la structure du patron, vous pourrez plus facilement comprendre l’exemple suivant qui est basé sur un cas d’utilisation réel en Swift.
Example.swift: Exemple conceptuel
import XCTest
/// The Abstraction defines the interface for the "control" part of the two
/// class hierarchies. It maintains a reference to an object of the
/// Implementation hierarchy and delegates all of the real work to this object.
class Abstraction {
fileprivate var implementation: Implementation
init(_ implementation: Implementation) {
self.implementation = implementation
}
func operation() -> String {
let operation = implementation.operationImplementation()
return "Abstraction: Base operation with:\n" + operation
}
}
/// You can extend the Abstraction without changing the Implementation classes.
class ExtendedAbstraction: Abstraction {
override func operation() -> String {
let operation = implementation.operationImplementation()
return "ExtendedAbstraction: Extended operation with:\n" + operation
}
}
/// The Implementation defines the interface for all implementation classes. It
/// doesn't have to match the Abstraction's interface. In fact, the two
/// interfaces can be entirely different. Typically the Implementation interface
/// provides only primitive operations, while the Abstraction defines higher-
/// level operations based on those primitives.
protocol Implementation {
func operationImplementation() -> String
}
/// Each Concrete Implementation corresponds to a specific platform and
/// implements the Implementation interface using that platform's API.
class ConcreteImplementationA: Implementation {
func operationImplementation() -> String {
return "ConcreteImplementationA: Here's the result on the platform A.\n"
}
}
class ConcreteImplementationB: Implementation {
func operationImplementation() -> String {
return "ConcreteImplementationB: Here's the result on the platform B\n"
}
}
/// Except for the initialization phase, where an Abstraction object gets linked
/// with a specific Implementation object, the client code should only depend on
/// the Abstraction class. This way the client code can support any abstraction-
/// implementation combination.
class Client {
// ...
static func someClientCode(abstraction: Abstraction) {
print(abstraction.operation())
}
// ...
}
/// Let's see how it all works together.
class BridgeConceptual: XCTestCase {
func testBridgeConceptual() {
// The client code should be able to work with any pre-configured
// abstraction-implementation combination.
let implementation = ConcreteImplementationA()
Client.someClientCode(abstraction: Abstraction(implementation))
let concreteImplementation = ConcreteImplementationB()
Client.someClientCode(abstraction: ExtendedAbstraction(concreteImplementation))
}
}

Abstraction: Base operation with:
ConcreteImplementationA: Here's the result on the platform A
ExtendedAbstraction: Extended operation with:
ConcreteImplementationB: Here's the result on the platform B
