Abstract Factory Pattern

Abstract Factory Pattern 


Gamma Categorization: Creational Design Patten
Summary: When the object construction is complicated, needing multiple arguments, we should create a separate function (Factory Method) or class (Factory), which is responsible for the creation of the all object.

Problem examples

Suport of multiple databases
Multiple data sources: Serial port, ethernet port, device driver
Diferent report types

Solution

Abstract class
Generalized interface
A Factory creates instances of the concrete classes

Sample Code

The abstract factory

public interface IPhotoFactory
{
    IAnaloguePhoto CreateAnaloguePhoto();
    IDigitalPhoto CreateDigitalPhoto();
}


The abstract products

public interface IAnaloguePhoto
{
    string GetName();
}

public interface IDigitalPhoto
{
    string GetName();
}

The concrete factories
public class CanonFactory : IPhotoFactory
{
    public IAnaloguePhoto CreateAnaloguePhoto()
    {
        return new CanonAnaloguePhoto();
    }

    public IDigitalPhoto CreateDigitalPhoto()
    {
        return new CanonDigitalPhoto();
    }
}

public class NikonFactory : IPhotoFactory
{
    public IAnaloguePhoto CreateAnaloguePhoto()
    {
        return new NikonAnaloguePhoto();
    }

    public IDigitalPhoto CreateDigitalPhoto()
    {
        return new NikonDigitalPhoto();
    }
}

The concrete products

public class CanonAnaloguePhoto : IAnaloguePhoto
{
    public string GetName()
    {
        return "Canon Analogue Photo";
    }
}

public class CanonDigitalPhoto : IDigitalPhoto
{
    public string GetName()
    {
        return "Canon Digital Photo";
    } 
}

public class NikonAnaloguePhoto : IAnaloguePhoto
{
    public string GetName()
    {
        return "Nikon Analogue Photo";
    }
}

public class NikonDigitalPhoto : IDigitalPhoto
{
    public string GetName()
    {
        return "Nikon Digital Photo";
    } 
}

The client

public class PhotoClient
{
    public enum Brand { Canon, Nikon};

    private IPhotoFactory photoFactory;

    public PhotoClient(Brand brand)
    {
        switch (brand)
        {
            case Brand.Canon:
                photoFactory = new CanonFactory();
                break;
                case Brand.Nikon:
                photoFactory = new NikonFactory();
                break;
        }
    }

    public string GetAnaloguePhoto() => photoFactory.CreateAnaloguePhoto().GetName();
    public string GetDigitalPhoto() => photoFactory.CreateDigitalPhoto().GetName();
}

Usage

var photoClient = new PhotoClient(PhotoClient.Brand.Canon);
WriteLine(photoClient.GetAnaloguePhoto());
WriteLine(photoClient.GetDigitalPhoto());

photoClient = new PhotoClient(PhotoClient.Brand.Nikon);
WriteLine(photoClient.GetAnaloguePhoto());
WriteLine(photoClient.GetDigitalPhoto());

XML Webservice (ASMX) - SOAP Request and Response Invocation logging

You are an integration developer. Eventualy you came into the state where there is nothing else you can debug, and you have to check which SOAP request it is built on the request, and which SOAP response you are getting from the server. C# XML Webservice (ASMX) - SOAP Request and Response Invocation logging In the legaccy .NET framework System.Web.Services , this means using soapExtensions to help you intersept the interaction with the webservice. This is done like so:  public class TraceExtension : SoapExtension     {         Stream oldStream;         Stream newStream;         string filename;         // Save the Stream representing the SOAP request or SOAP response into          // a local memory buffer.          public override Stream ChainStream(Stream stream)         {             oldStream = stream;             newStream = new MemoryStream();             return newStream;         }         // When the SOAP extension is accessed for the first time, the XML Web
