只要一個方法操作的是類而非接口，那么你就只能使用這個類及其子類。如果你想要將這個方法應(yīng)用于不在此繼承結(jié)構(gòu)中的某個類，那么你就會倒大霉了。接口可以在很大程序上放寬這種限制，因此它使得我們可以編寫可復(fù)用性更好的代碼
首先看，通過類的繼承實現(xiàn)的一個程序
class Processor
{
public String name(){
return getClass().getSimpleName();
}
Object process(Object input){
return input;
}
}
class Upcase extends Processor{
String process(Object input){
return ((String)input).toUpperCase();
}
}
class Downcase extends Processor{
String process (Object input){
return ((String)input).toLowerCase();
}
}
class Splitter extends Processor{
String process(Object input){
return Arrays.toString(((String)input).split(" "));
}
}
public class Apply {
public static String s = "Disagredment with beliefs is by definition incorrect";
public static void process(Processor p, Object s){
System.out.println("Using Processor "+ p.name());
System.out.println(p.process(s));
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
process(new Upcase(),s);
process(new Downcase(),s);
process(new Splitter(),s);
}
}這個例子很簡單，只是把字符串轉(zhuǎn)換為大寫，小寫和以空格拆分的字符串。值得注意的是負(fù)責(zé)轉(zhuǎn)換的類Upcase, Downcase和Splitter都是繼承于Processor的，而Processor是一個普通的類。咋一看是沒問題的，但是要想通過復(fù)用把以下的別的類似的程序就不方便了
class Waveform{
private static long counter;
private final long id = counter++;
public String toString(){
return "Waveform" + id;
}
}
class Filter{
public String name(){
return getClass().getSimpleName();
}
public Waveform process(Waveform input){
return input;
}
}
class LowPass extends Filter{
double cutoff;
public LowPass(double cutoff){
this.cutoff = cutoff;
}
@Override
public Waveform process (Waveform input){
return input;
}
}
class HighPass extends Filter{
double cutoff;
public HighPass(double cutoff){
this.cutoff = cutoff;
}
public Waveform process(Waveform input){
return input;
}
}
class BandPass extends Filter{
double lowCutoff,highCutoff;
public BandPass(double lowCut, double highCut){
lowCutoff = lowCut;
highCutoff = highCut;
}
}
因為在Apply.process（）方法在傳入的是Processor類，而Filter的創(chuàng)建者壓根不清楚它將要被用作Processor。也許你會認(rèn)為通過繼承Process就把問題解決了，但是你會發(fā)現(xiàn)Filter.process和Process.process的方法簽名是不一樣的，那就是說Filter并沒有覆蓋Process的方法，這樣將會導(dǎo)致不安全性（Filter因繼承而多了一個不在設(shè)計范圍內(nèi)的方法）。因此使得代碼復(fù)用就很難了，主要的原因是Apply.process()和Process之間的耦合太緊了。如果把Processor改為接口，這些限制就會變得松動了
interface Processor {
String name();
Object process(Object input);
}
//把導(dǎo)出類的name方法抽取出來單獨設(shè)置一個abstract類
abstract class StringProcessor implements Processor{
public String name(){
return getClass().getSimpleName();
}
public abstract String process(Object input);
}
class Upcase extends StringProcessor {
@Override
public String process(Object input) {
return ((String)input).toUpperCase();
}
}
class Splitter extends StringProcessor{
@Override
public String process(Object input) {
return Arrays.toString(((String)input).split(" "));
}
}
class Downcase extends StringProcessor {
@Override
public String process(Object input) {
return ((String)input).toLowerCase();
}
}
public class Apply {
public static String s = "Disagredment with beliefs is by definition incorrect";
public static void process(Processor p, Object s){
System.out.println("Using Processor "+ p.name());
System.out.println(p.process(s));
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
process(new Upcase(), s);
process(new Downcase(),s);
process(new Splitter(),s);
}
}
這種我們就可以通過實現(xiàn)接口而在復(fù)用的基礎(chǔ)上加入Filter了
abstract class Filter implements Processor {
public String name() {
return getClass().getSimpleName();
}
public abstract Waveform process(Object input);
}
class BandPass extends Filter{
double lowCutoff,highCutoff;
public BandPass(double lowCut, double highCut){
lowCutoff = lowCut;
highCutoff = highCut;
}
@Override
public Waveform process(Object input) {
return (Waveform) input;
}
}
class HighPass extends Filter{
double cutoff;
public HighPass(double cutoff){
this.cutoff = cutoff;
}
@Override
public Waveform process(Object input) {
return (Waveform) input;
}
}
class LowPass extends Filter{
double cutoff;
public LowPass(double cutoff){
this.cutoff = cutoff;
}
@Override
public Waveform process (Object input){
return (Waveform) input;
}
}
public class Apply {
public static String s = "Disagredment with beliefs is by definition incorrect";
public static void process(Processor p, Object s){
System.out.println("Using Processor "+ p.name());
System.out.println(p.process(s));
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
//process(new Upcase(), s);
//process(new Downcase(),s);
//process(new Splitter(),s);
Waveform w = new Waveform();
process(new LowPass(1.0),w);
process(new HighPass(3.0),w);
process(new BandPass(1.0,2.0),w);
}
}
上面的例子很好說明了，不用修改原程序（當(dāng)然Filter還是要改的），可以直接通過復(fù)用接口Processor和Apply.process（）。然后有的時候Filter并不是可以修改的，或者你得到的只是一個類庫，這個時候可以使用Adaptor設(shè)計模式
//Filter不能修改
class Filter{
public String name(){
return getClass().getSimpleName();
}
// @Override
public Waveform process(Waveform input){
return input;
}
}
//Filter的Adapter
class FilterAdapter implements Processor {
Filter filter;
public FilterAdapter (Filter filter){
this.filter = filter;
}
public String name() {
return filter.name();
}
public Waveform process(Object input) {
return filter.process((Waveform) input);
}
}public class Apply {
public static String s = "Disagredment with beliefs is by definition incorrect";
public static void process(Processor p, Object s){
System.out.println("Using Processor "+ p.name());
System.out.println(p.process(s));
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
Waveform w = new Waveform();
process(new FilterAdapter(new chapter9.LowPass(1.0)),w);
process(new FilterAdapter(new chapter9.HighPass(3.0)),w);
process(new FilterAdapter(new chapter9.BandPass(1.0,2.0)),w);
}
}
在這種使用適配器的方式中，F(xiàn)ilterAdapter的構(gòu)造器接受你所擁有的接口Filter，然后生成具有你所需要的Processor接口的對象。在FilterAdapter中還使用了代理
