3.1. Chain Of Responsibilities

3.1.1. Purpose

Costruire una catena di oggetti da chiamare in ordine sequanziale.Se un oggetto non può gestire la chiamata, la delega al prossimo nella catena e così via.

3.1.2. Examples

• I Framework di logging, dove ogni elemento della catena decide autonomamento cosa fare con un messaggio di log.

• Un filtro anti spam.

• Caching : il primo oggetto è un istanza ad esempio dell’interfaccia Memcached, la quale se fa «miss», delega la chiamata ad un’interfaccia del database.
