Adapter

Convert the interface of a class into another interface clients expect. Adapter lets classes work together that couldn't otherwise because of incompatible interfaces.

When to use

  • you want to use an existing class, and its interface does not match the one you need
  • you want to create a reusable class that cooperates with classes that don't necessarily have compatible interfaces
