Flyweight Pattern

Flyweight Pattern 


Gamma Categorization: Structural Design Pattern
Summary:Use sharing to support large numbers of fine-grained objects efficiently.

Sample Code

Problem: We want to store in memory only one object per unique filter definition.

Code

public class Filter
{
    public Guid ID { get; set; }
    public List<string> FilterProperties { get; set; } = new List<string>();

    public bool Equals(Filter filter)
    {
        if(this.FilterProperties.Count != filter.FilterProperties.Count)
            return false;

        this.FilterProperties.Sort();
        filter.FilterProperties.Sort();

        if (!this.FilterProperties.SequenceEqual(filter.FilterProperties))
            return false;

        return true;
    }
}

public class PhotoEditor
{
    private List<Filter> filterCache = new List<Filter>();
    private Dictionary<string,Guid> filters = new Dictionary<string, Guid>();

    public void ApplyFilter(string filterName)
    {
        if(!filters.ContainsKey(filterName))
            return;

        var filterGuid = filters[filterName];
        var filter = filterCache.FirstOrDefault(f => f.ID == filterGuid);

        System.Console.WriteLine($"\nFilter Name: {filterName}");
        System.Console.WriteLine($"Internal Filter ID: {filterGuid}");

        filter.FilterProperties.ForEach(p => System.Console.WriteLine($"\tApplying {p}"));
    }

    public void AddFilter(string filterName, List<string> filterProperties)
    {
        var newFilter = new Filter { ID = Guid.NewGuid(), FilterProperties = filterProperties };

        Guid existingFilterGuid = Guid.Empty;
        foreach (var filter in filterCache)
        {
            if(filter.Equals(newFilter))
            {
                existingFilterGuid = filter.ID;
                break;
            }
        }

        if(existingFilterGuid != Guid.Empty)
            filters.Add(filterName, existingFilterGuid);
        else
        {
            filterCache.Add(newFilter);
            filters.Add(filterName, newFilter.ID);
        }
    }
}

Usage

photoEditor.AddFilter("Preset1", new List<string> { "Contrast" });
photoEditor.AddFilter("Preset2", new List<string> { "Contrast", "Sharpen", "Saturation", "White balance"});
photoEditor.AddFilter("Preset3", new List<string> { "Contrast", "Sharpen", "Saturation", "White balance"});
photoEditor.AddFilter("Preset4", new List<string> { "Saturation" });
photoEditor.AddFilter("Preset5", new List<string> { "Contrast" });

photoEditor.ApplyFilter("Preset1");
photoEditor.ApplyFilter("Preset2");
photoEditor.ApplyFilter("Preset3");
photoEditor.ApplyFilter("Preset4");
photoEditor.ApplyFilter("Preset5");

Output

Filter Name: Preset1
Internal Filter ID: 8d056cb7-9f78-498f-a692-57dfa0674d16
        Applying Contrast

 Filter Name: Preset2
Internal Filter ID: eb0b6b2d-b4ed-43d1-b46b-b1a8ad06cd53
        Applying Contrast
        Applying Saturation
        Applying Sharpen
        Applying White balance

 Filter Name: Preset3
Internal Filter ID: eb0b6b2d-b4ed-43d1-b46b-b1a8ad06cd53
        Applying Contrast
        Applying Saturation
        Applying Sharpen
        Applying White balance

 Filter Name: Preset4
Internal Filter ID: 11ed980b-902a-4e0d-8d9b-05e6908ea2d3
        Applying Saturation

 Filter Name: Preset5
Internal Filter ID: 8d056cb7-9f78-498f-a692-57dfa0674d16
        Applying Contrast

SOLID (4/5) - Interface segregation principle

Interface segregation principle In the field of software engineering, the interface-segregation principle (ISP) states that no client should be forced to depend on methods it does not use. ISP splits interfaces that are very large into smaller and more specific ones so that clients will only have to know about the methods that are of interest to them. Such shrunken interfaces are also called role interfaces. ISP is intended to keep a system decoupled and thus easier to refactor, change, and redeploy. using   System ; namespace   interfacesegregation {      public   class   Document       {     }      public   interface   IMachine       {          void   Print ( Document   d );          void   Scan ( Document   d );     ...
