Ralph,
You've had two useful replies already.
One additional comment. There are a number of people working with patterns who have interests in real-time / embedded systems, and - as a consequence - there are many patterns out there that do not rely on dynamic memory allocation.
Please don't give up on patterns until you've done some trawling on Google (or similar).
Best wishes,
Michael.

Subject: [patterns-discussion] Using Design Patterns without dynamic memoryallocation
Hello all, looking at archives I'm not sure how "alive" this list is, but someone out there might be listening.
I'm interested in people's opinions as to whether design patterns would be useful if you could not dynamically allocate memory.
I am new to patterns and find them quite interesting. I am considering putting in some effort to comprehend them, but my projects at work include embedded safety-critical real-time systems, and one of the things that we do not use is dynamic memory allocation.
If anyone has an opinion as to whether I should delve into patterns for this type of software (i.e. you have considered doing them and/or done them in similar systems before) I'd be interested to hear it.
Thanks!
