Visitor

Visitor em Python

O Visitor é um padrão de projeto comportamental que permite adicionar novos comportamentos à hierarquia de classes existente sem alterar nenhum código existente.

Leia por que os Visitors não podem ser simplesmente substituídos pela sobrecarga de método em nosso artigo Visitor e Double Dispatch.

Complexidade:

Popularidade:

Exemplos de uso: O Visitor não é um padrão muito comum devido à sua complexidade e aplicabilidade limitada.

Exemplo conceitual

Este exemplo ilustra a estrutura do padrão de projeto Visitor. Ele se concentra em responder a estas perguntas:

  • De quais classes ele consiste?
  • Quais papéis essas classes desempenham?
  • De que maneira os elementos do padrão estão relacionados?

"""
Concrete Visitors implement several versions of the same algorithm, which can
work with all concrete component classes.

You can experience the biggest benefit of the Visitor pattern when using it with
a complex object structure, such as a Composite tree. In this case, it might be
helpful to store some intermediate state of the algorithm while executing
visitor's methods over various objects of the structure.

The client code works with all visitors via the base Visitor interface:
A + ConcreteVisitor1
B + ConcreteVisitor1
It allows the same client code to work with different types of visitors:
A + ConcreteVisitor2
B + ConcreteVisitor2
