    Factory Method: Object Diagram For Factory Injection Mold Example

    The Factory Method pattern provides an interface for creating objects in a superclass, but allows subclasses to decide which objects to create. For example, a toy manufacturer can inject plastic into different molds to create different toy shapes like cars. The Factory Method allows the toy class (e.g. car) to be determined by the mold used by the subclass of the manufacturer.

    for Factory
    Method using
    Injection Mold
    Example

    The Factory Method defines an interface for creating objects, but lets subclasses
    decide which classes to instantiate. Injection molding presses demonstrate this
    pattern. Manufacturers of plastic toys process plastic molding powder, and inject the
    plastic into molds of the desired shapes .The class of toy (car, etc.) is determined by
    the mold
    Creational Factory Method
    Factory Method
    Intent
    Define an interface for creating an object, but let
    subclasses decide which class to instantiate. Factory
    Method lets a class defer instantiation to subclasses.

    Also Known As
    Virtual Constructor
    Creational Factory Method
    Problem :
    “A framework needs to standardize the architectural model
    for a range of applications, but allow for individual
    applications to define their own domain objects and
    provide for their instantiation”

    Creational Factory Method

    Illustration: Example Application that can present


    multiple documents to the user
    Frameworks use abstract classes to define and maintain
    relationships between objects.
    A framework is often responsible for creating these objects
    as well.
    As shown in the figure :
    Application and Document which
    form a relationship need to be *
    extended by the client applications

    <<create>>
    Creational Factory Method
    Illustration :
    Because the particular document subclass to instantiate is
    application specific, the application class cant predict the
    subclass of the document to instantiate.
    The problem here is : The framework must instantiate
    classes , but it only knows about abstract classes, which it
    can not instantiate.

    <<create>>
    Creational Factory Method

    Illustration : Solution
    • Factory Method Pattern offer a solution. It encapsulates
    the knowledge of which Document subclass to create
    and moves this knowledge out of the framework.
    • Application subclasses redefine an abstract
    CreateDocument( ) on Application to return an appropriate
    Document subclass.
    • Once an application subclass is instantiated , It can then
    instantiate application – specific Documents without
    knowing their Class , We call CreateDocument( ) a
    Factory Method because it is responsible for
    manufacturing an object.
    Creational Factory Method

    Solution :
    • A superclass specifies all standard and generic
    behavior (using pure virtual "placeholders" for
    creation steps), and then delegates the creation
    details to subclasses that are supplied by the client.
    • Factory Method makes a design more
    customizable and only a little more complicated.
    Other design patterns require new classes, whereas
    Factory Method only requires a new operation.
    Creational Factory Method
    Applicability
    Use the Factory Method pattern when
     
    • A class can’t anticipate the class objects it must create.
     
    • A class wants its subclasses to specify the objects it
    creates.
     
    • Classes delegate responsibility to one of several helper
    subclasses, and you want to localize the knowledge of
    which helper subclass is the delegate.

    Collaborations

    • Creator relies on its subclasses to define the


    factory method so that it returns an instance of the
    appropriate ConcreteProduct.

    Consequences
    • Connects parallel class hierarchies.
    – Isolates concrete classes
    – Makes exchanging product families easy
    – Promotes consistency among products

    Related Patterns

    • Abstract factory is often implemented with factory


    methods.
    • Factory Method is to creating objects as Template
    Method is to implementing an algorithm
    • Factory Methods are usually called within
    Template Methods.
    • Factory Method: creation through inheritance.
    Prototype: creation through delegation
