In continuation to my previous post, I am presenting you a sample code that implements Abstract Factory Pattern.
The overview:
- This implementation contains a factory called Person.
- The Product/Entity class is represented by 2 abstract classes called Gift and Letter.
- The client class is called Client.
- Employee and Colleague inherits from Person.
- Email inherits Letter and Flowers inherit Gift.
- Client creates/receives an instance of Person class which creates objects for Gift and Letter.
Takeaways:
- As discussed earlier, Creational Patterns focus on creating objects of Product.
- The complexity of this pattern increases as the number of Product increases. You have to add more virtual functions at the Person(Factory) level. Then override those functions at the Concrete classes of the Factory(eg., Employee, Colleague)
The Person class(Factory), this implementation uses the Singleton pattern with Lazy Initialization to make sure that there is only 1 instance in the application.
1: public class Person
2: {3: /// <summary>
4: /// Static variable of the class to see if its already instantiated
5: /// </summary>
6: private static Person _p;

9: /// The virual functions to create a Gift Product
10: /// </summary>
