Overview of this book

C++ is a general-purpose programming language designed for efficiency, performance, and flexibility. Design patterns are commonly accepted solutions to well-recognized design problems. In essence, they are a library of reusable components, only for software architecture, and not for a concrete implementation. This book helps you focus on the design patterns that naturally adapt to your needs, and on the patterns that uniquely benefit from the features of C++. Armed with the knowledge of these patterns, you’ll spend less time searching for solutions to common problems and tackle challenges with the solutions developed from experience. You’ll also explore that design patterns are a concise and efficient way to communicate, as patterns are a familiar and recognizable solution to a specific problem and can convey a considerable amount of information with a single line of code. By the end of this book, you’ll have a deep understanding of how to use design patterns to write maintainable, robust, and reusable software.

Part 3: C++ Design Patterns

This part begins with the main portion of the book. It introduces the most important, frequently used C++ design patterns. Each pattern is generally used as a commonly accepted approach to solving a certain type of problem. Exactly what the problem is, varies a great deal: some are system architecture challenges, others are interface design problems, yet others deal with program performance.

This part has the following chapters:
