Abstract:

Software design patterns have been within developers' realm of influence for several years now. They come from every possible direction, indicating the best courses of action for problem-solving, and are well documented in numerous articles, magazines, and books. Some are corner stones, constituting the foundation of software development. Others are highly evolved complex constructions using other patterns as building blocks to bring about higher quality in more challenging situations. After years of experience in the Information Technology industry, every experienced developer has his own way of perceiving certain design patterns which he has used, and heard, read or talked about. But as the years pass, technology evolves, software design pattern knowledge is still not yet finally distilled, and new design patterns are created. In this article a new design pattern, which the author has called the dynamic factory, is explained. The new type of factory enhances the design pattern possibilities known so far. It creates new object types according to the situation, containing just what is needed, and nothing redundant.
