Description
Attach additional responsibilities to an object dynamically.
Decorators provide a flexible alternative to subclassing for extending functionality
- Add new functionalities dynamically to existing objects
- The object does not know it is being « decorated »
- Decorators both inherit the original class and contain an instantiation of it
- It is an alternative to subclass to add new functionalities
Exemple
IUser.cs
|
public interface IUser
{
string Name { get; set; }
}
|
User.cs

public class User : IUser
{
public string Name { get; set; }
public User(string name)
{
this.Name = name;
}
}
|
UserTitle
|
public class UserTitle : IUser
{
private IUser user;
public string Name
{
get => $"{user.Name} ({Title})";
set => user.Name = value;
}
public string Title { get; set; }
public UserTitle(IUser user, string title)
{
this.user = user;
this.Title = title;
}
}
|
UserEmail.cs
|
public class UserEmail : IUser
{
private IUser user;
public string Name
{
get => $"{user.Name} - {Email}";
set => user.Name = value;
}
public string Email { get; set; }
public UserEmail(IUser user, string email)
{
this.user = user;
this.Email = email;
}
}
|
|
var user = new User("Nicolas");
Console.WriteLine(user.Name); // Nicolas
var userWithTitle = new UserTitle(user, "Big Boss");
Console.WriteLine(userWithTitle.Name); // Nicolas (Big Boss)
var userWithEmail = new UserEmail(user, "nicolas@world-company.net");
Console.WriteLine(userWithEmail.Name); // Nicolas (Big Boss) - nicolas@world-company.net
