Aspect<\/th>Builder Pattern<\/strong><\/th>Factory Pattern<\/strong><\/th><\/tr><\/thead>
Type<\/strong><\/td>Creational design pattern<\/td>Creational design pattern<\/td><\/tr>
Purpose<\/strong><\/td>To construct complex objects step by step with fine-grained control.<\/td>To create objects without exposing the creation logic to the client.<\/td><\/tr>
When to Use<\/strong><\/td>When an object requires many optional parameters or a complex construction process.<\/td>When you want to create objects from a family of related classes without specifying the exact class.<\/td><\/tr>
Object Creation<\/strong><\/td>Involves a director (optional) and builder that gradually assemble the object.<\/td>Uses a factory method or class to decide which subclass to instantiate.<\/td><\/tr>
Flexibility<\/strong><\/td>Gives precise control over how the object is built.<\/td>Simplifies object creation and centralizes it.<\/td><\/tr>
Client\u2019s Role<\/strong><\/td>Client calls builder methods (or uses chaining) to set properties and finally build the object.<\/td>Client only requests an object type, factory decides the exact class to return.<\/td><\/tr>
Example Use Cases<\/strong><\/td>Creating a User<\/code> object with optional fields (address, phone, etc.), building a complex configuration.<\/td>Creating shapes (Circle<\/code>, Square<\/code>, Rectangle<\/code>), creating database connections, parsers.<\/td><\/tr>
Advantages<\/strong><\/td>– Handles complex construction. – Improves code readability with method chaining. – Avoids telescoping constructors.<\/td>– Hides object creation logic. – Promotes loose coupling. – Easier to extend with new object types.<\/td><\/tr>
Disadvantages<\/strong><\/td>More code to set up (requires builder classes).<\/td>Can create too many factory classes if overused.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
