For a horrifying look at over-pattern-itis, have a look at the eclipse source code. Not to say patterns aren't useful, but they aren't useful to the point that they should be treated as some high level language construct (at least the ones that haven't migrated to become that already : ). Often something being an 'approved pattern' is treated as sufficient justification to use it, which of course is crazy. It is something like saying, 'my code has no bugs because it has unit tests'.
Computer Science at any time is 60% fashion -- you have to constantly be on guard for these things.

The advantage of using good design patterns is to ensure future-scalability and the modularity of your code. I often come across code that is half-object orientated; where one class does two things instead of one, or the code is not properly encapsulated. Design patterns, or a micro-architecture such as pureMVC help us to ensure that our code follows proper separation or encapsulation. Naturally an MVC architecture is not required on a simple site, nor is a micro-architecture on a simple MVC implementation; but applied to the right scale/type of project, it can make all the [long term] difference. And a common micro-architecture makes it easy to understand new projects when old ones follow identical patterns. I'm curious as to why you have such strong negative feelings... have you struggled with projects that are over-structured? Kind, Sebastian. iteratif wrote: > The whole question is: is what you spent pureMVC because you perfectly > mastered the MVC model or rather lack of knowledge on the subject. > > Because the use of abusive patterns in the frameworks have no meaning, > it proves the lack of knowledge about the subject.
