Design Patterns discussion

[Jesús Alonso <kenchoweb AT hotmail.com>]

Hello Jayadev

Well, you can't classify patterns in good or bad. The definition of pattern 
implies that it is a generic solution for a certain kind of problem. Thus, 
you will find some patterns more suitable for certain problems you need to 
solve. For instance, change notifications are usually done with the observer 
pattern, while others talk about state changing. So you really need to read 
the strengths of those patterns and evaluate which one is the best for your 
problem.

You can, anyways, take a look to the replies to another mail in one of these 
lists, where someone asked for the subjective opinion of the 10 patterns 
most used. That's a good starting point if you want to check those first, 
which are the best solution in most cases (but not the only one, of course)

Hope that helps

Regards,
 Jesús Alonso
