I come from C Background and have knowledge on C++(at least I know virtual functions, INheritance, Code -reuse and some OOPS concept), But still I am having hard time understanding the Design Patterns in C++/Java.I guess Binders Design Patterns are based on C++ Design pattern(correct me). DO i have to understand UML as well to understand them. Plz explain or direct a link with test source code on the above.
PS: I am trying to understand this blog by Tetsuyuki Kobayashi and i am in no way related to him.
I wouldnt say that C++ Binders are a design pattern. I put a link here explaining them.
I would also say that Design patterns arent really language specific, they can basically be implemented in any (most) programming languages. Languages that support OOP typically make implementing design patterns easier, but that could be argued.
The Gang of Four design patterns book uses UML to explain design patterns, but I wouldnt say you would have to be a UML expert to understand design patterns. If UML is bothering you, try the Head First Design Patterns book, its much easier to understand.
