L’Observateur est un patron de conception comportemental qui permet à certains objets d’envoyer des notifications concernant leur état à d’autres objets.
Ce patron fournit la possibilité aux objets qui implémentent une interface de souscription, de s’inscrire et de se désinscrire de ces événements.
Complexité :
Popularité :
Exemples d’utilisation : L’observateur est assez répandu en C#, surtout dans les composants GUI. Il fournit une manière de réagir aux événements qui se produisent chez d’autres objets sans se coupler à leurs classes.
Identification : Ce patron peut être reconnu dans les méthodes de souscription qui stockent des objets dans une liste et par les appels des objets de cette liste à la méthode update.
Exemple conceptuel
Dans cet exemple, nous allons voir la structure de l’Observateur . Nous allons répondre aux questions suivantes :
Que contiennent les classes ?
Quels rôles jouent-elles ?
Comment les éléments du patron sont-ils reliés ?
Program.cs: Exemple conceptuel

using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Threading;
namespace RefactoringGuru.DesignPatterns.Observer.Conceptual
{
public interface IObserver
{
// Receive update from subject
void Update(ISubject subject);

public interface ISubject
{
// Attach an observer to the subject.
void Attach(IObserver observer);
// Detach an observer from the subject.
void Detach(IObserver observer);
// Notify all observers about an event.
void Notify();
}
// The Subject owns some important state and notifies observers when the
// state changes.
public class Subject : ISubject
{
// For the sake of simplicity, the Subject's state, essential to all
// subscribers, is stored in this variable.
public int State { get; set; } = -0;
// List of subscribers. In real life, the list of subscribers can be
// stored more comprehensively (categorized by event type, etc.).
private List<IObserver> _observers = new List<IObserver>();
// The subscription management methods.
public void Attach(IObserver observer)
{
Console.WriteLine("Subject: Attached an observer.");
this._observers.Add(observer);
}

}
// Trigger an update in each subscriber.

// Usually, the subscription logic is only a fraction of what a Subject
// can really do. Subjects commonly hold some important business logic,
// that triggers a notification method whenever something important is
// about to happen (or after it).

this.State = new Random().Next(0, 10);
Thread.Sleep(15);

// Concrete Observers react to the updates issued by the Subject they had
// been attached to.
