RE: OT - book on Java patterns
The de facto official reference for these patterns is Design Patterns, by Gamma, et. al., the now famous Gang of Four. This is the book that started all the madness back in '97 or so; pretty much all other books on design patterns can be said to be derivitives or enhancements on this original work. One that I am in the process of reading right now is Patterns of Enterprise Application Architecture by Martin Fowler. It has some solid patterns from a J2EE/.NET (mostly J2EE) perspective, and is worth investigating after the GoF book has been studied. -= J -Original Message- From: Sasha Borodin [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, October 10, 2003 5:23 PM To: Struts Users Mailing List Subject: OT - book on Java patterns All this talk lately of various official patterns has my brain hurting from the Unknown again.

RE: OT - book on Java patterns
Yes, James, but the GoF book examples are written in a C-like pseudocode syntax that is difficult for a non-C programmer to follow. For a Java parallel to the GoF book, I've found Applied Java Patterns (Stelting and Maasen, Sun/PH 2002) and Design Patterns Java Workbook (Metsker, Addison Wesley 2002) to be the best.

Here are a few resources on the web for design patterns... http://java.sun.com/blueprints/corej2eepatterns/Patterns/index.html http://www.mindspring.com/~mgrand/pattern_synopses.htm http://exciton.cs.oberlin.edu/javaresources/DesignPatterns/default.htm http://www.jdance.com/designpatterns.shtm -Original Message- From: Sasha Borodin [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, October 10, 2003 6:23 PM To: Struts Users Mailing List Subject: OT - book on Java patterns All this talk lately of various official patterns has my brain hurting from the Unknown again.

RE: OT - book on Java patterns
I can recommend (along with the GOF book which is really a reference book) Agile Software Development - Principles, Patterns, and Practices by Robert C. Martin. Examples are in a mixture of Java and C++ and very good examples. Source is here: http://www.objectmentor.com/resources/bookstore/books/PPP http://www.objectmentor.com/resources/bookstore/books/AgileSoftwareDevelopme ntPPP And if you get really stuck reading it, the author regularly posts to the comp.object newsgroup.

Re: OT - book on Java patterns
As mentioned, Core J2EE Patterns 2d is quite good. The other key tests are Design Patterns and Patterns in Enterprise Architecture. We list such books here: http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/resources/related_books.html HTH, Ted.

RE: OT - book on Java patterns
I think this is a good J2EE-oriented one; has some very practical examples if you are new to patterns.
