The bridge design pattern

Hello Experts!

Some information.
In a more general form is the handle body principles called the bridge
design pattern.
In the handle class you have a delegate that points to an pure abstract
class(interface )
If the delegate points to an interface called implementor you have some
classes that implement the interface.

Now to my question
When you have a bridge design pattern is it normally that the handle class
is an abstract class or an concrete class.

Many thanks

The Top Level Design: The class Base is a factory class with a twist. It uses the Assembly/Type classes to extract all types that inherit from it and add them to the list of types that inherit from it. During run time, using a static method, the class creates an instance of the derived class using the Activator class and returns it. This design pattern is very similar to the design pattern applied by the Assembly class. The twist is...

I'm still pretty new to design patterns... I was wondering, is there any difference between the Bridge Pattern and Herb Sutter's Pimpl Idiom? Both delegate responsibility to an implementation and thus allow a clear and flexible separation of interface and implementation such that the implementation can be changed freely.

I'm undertaking wriitng a bridge application between a remote data server API and multiple utility applications which pull and send data to the API. The reason for a bridge is that the data server limits connectivity to a single connection/account. I already have the bridge->API connection functioning and now I need to begin the multiple utilityApps->bridge connection. I have never undertaken a task as this and I'm wondering what the...

In Febraury - April of 2002 I put together in Java examples of all 23 of the classic "Gang Of Four" design patterns for my website. Partly I wanted to get a better understanding of those patterns. They are still online at http://www.fluffycat.com/java/patterns.html Since September 2003 I've mainly been using PHP, and now that PHP 5 is becoming more available I am going to try the same thing I did in Java with PHP.

New on November 28, 2005 for www.FluffyCat.com PHP 5 Design Pattern Examples - the Visitor Pattern. In the Visitor pattern, one class calls a function in another class and passes an instance of itself. The called class has special functions for each class that can call it. With the visitor pattern, the calling class can have new operations added without being changed itself.

The code below was taken from an example. All the "noise" in the example was thrown out. This is supposedly according to the bridge pattern. What in the code (which lines) represent the bridge pattern (make this code to be according to the bridge pattern), and what is the advantage of employing the bridge pattern? It seems "l'art pour l'art" to me. Adrian

Maybe my example isn't a good candidate for Bridge, or maybe I'm applying Bridge incorrectly, but I don't see the benefit of the pattern here. If I eliminated the Bridge and extended the shape hierarchy to implement all combinations of shape/api, the number of classes would be the same and the factory could still be used to create the correct one. The client would still only care about the shape interface. Seems like the...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
