Book notes

The Command Pattern encapsulates a request as an object, thereby letting you parameterize other objects with different requests, queue or log requests, and support undoable operations.

command pattern 将发出请求的对象与知道如何执行请求的对象解耦。

Example

command interface:

public interface Command {
	public void execute();
}

receiver:

public class LightOnCommand implements Command {
	Light light;

	public LightOnCommand(Light light) {
		this.light = light;
	}

	public void execute() {
		light.on();
	}
}

public class Light {
	String location = "";

	public Light(String location) {
		this.location = location;
	}

	public void on() {
		System.out.println(location + " light is on");
	}

	public void off() {
		System.out.println(location + " light is off");
	}
}

invoker:

public class RemoteControl {
	Command[] onCommands;
	Command[] offCommands;
 
	public RemoteControl() {
		onCommands = new Command[7];
		offCommands = new Command[7];
 
		Command noCommand = new NoCommand();
		for (int i = 0; i < 7; i++) {
			onCommands[i] = noCommand;
			offCommands[i] = noCommand;
		}
	}
  
	public void setCommand(int slot, Command onCommand, Command offCommand) {
		onCommands[slot] = onCommand;
		offCommands[slot] = offCommand;
	}
 
	public void onButtonWasPushed(int slot) {
		onCommands[slot].execute();
	}
 
	public void offButtonWasPushed(int slot) {
		offCommands[slot].execute();
	}
  
	public String toString() {
		StringBuffer stringBuff = new StringBuffer();
		stringBuff.append("\n------ Remote Control -------\n");
		for (int i = 0; i < onCommands.length; i++) {
			stringBuff.append("[slot " + i + "] " + onCommands[i].getClass().getName()
				+ "    " + offCommands[i].getClass().getName() + "\n");
		}
		return stringBuff.toString();
	}
}

client:

public class RemoteLoader {
 
	public static void main(String[] args) {
		RemoteControl remoteControl = new RemoteControl();
 
		Light livingRoomLight = new Light("Living Room");
		Light kitchenLight = new Light("Kitchen");
		CeilingFan ceilingFan= new CeilingFan("Living Room");
		GarageDoor garageDoor = new GarageDoor("Garage");
		Stereo stereo = new Stereo("Living Room");
  
		LightOnCommand livingRoomLightOn = 
				new LightOnCommand(livingRoomLight);
		LightOffCommand livingRoomLightOff = 
				new LightOffCommand(livingRoomLight);
		LightOnCommand kitchenLightOn = 
				new LightOnCommand(kitchenLight);
		LightOffCommand kitchenLightOff = 
				new LightOffCommand(kitchenLight);
  
		CeilingFanOnCommand ceilingFanOn = 
				new CeilingFanOnCommand(ceilingFan);
		CeilingFanOffCommand ceilingFanOff = 
				new CeilingFanOffCommand(ceilingFan);
 
		GarageDoorUpCommand garageDoorUp =
				new GarageDoorUpCommand(garageDoor);
		GarageDoorDownCommand garageDoorDown =
				new GarageDoorDownCommand(garageDoor);
 
		StereoOnWithCDCommand stereoOnWithCD =
				new StereoOnWithCDCommand(stereo);
		StereoOffCommand  stereoOff =
				new StereoOffCommand(stereo);
 
		remoteControl.setCommand(0, livingRoomLightOn, livingRoomLightOff);
		remoteControl.setCommand(1, kitchenLightOn, kitchenLightOff);
		remoteControl.setCommand(2, ceilingFanOn, ceilingFanOff);
		remoteControl.setCommand(3, stereoOnWithCD, stereoOff);
  
		System.out.println(remoteControl);
 
		remoteControl.onButtonWasPushed(0);
		remoteControl.offButtonWasPushed(0);
		remoteControl.onButtonWasPushed(1);
		remoteControl.offButtonWasPushed(1);
		remoteControl.onButtonWasPushed(2);
		remoteControl.offButtonWasPushed(2);
		remoteControl.onButtonWasPushed(3);
		remoteControl.offButtonWasPushed(3);
