Prototype

Prototype en C++

Le Prototype est un patron de conception de création qui permet de cloner des objets - même complexes - sans se coupler à leur classe.

Toutes les classes prototype devraient avoir une interface commune rendant possible la copie des objets, même sans connaître leur classe concrète. Les objets prototype peuvent créer des copies complètes puisqu’ils peuvent accéder aux attributs privés des autres objets de la même classe.

Complexité :

Popularité :

Identification : Le prototype peut facilement être reconnu grâce aux méthodes clone ou copier, etc.

Exemple conceptuel

Dans cet exemple, nous allons voir la structure du Prototype. Nous allons répondre aux questions suivantes :

  • Que contiennent les classes ?
  • Quels rôles jouent-elles ?
  • Comment les éléments du patron sont-ils reliés ?

// their classes.

Let's create a Prototype 1
Call Method from PROTOTYPE_1  with field : 90

Let's create a Prototype 2 
Call Method from PROTOTYPE_2  with field : 10
