Hi Mike,

Any more “positive feedback” out there?


YES. Thanks very much for your posting.

I always appreciate hints towards a more general view on structures than just "technical" views from a software engineer's view (or even a Java programmer's).

I also have a question and request:

You say pattern usage is at least partly a cognitive process. Typically cognitive processes can be error-prone (misinterpretation of structures, obfuscation, easy and difficult to recognize structures, ...). In particular when it comes to formal stuff like a program.

Does anybody has links or own experience about problems with software patterns on this level? E.g. how good are they recognized in code? Under what circumstances is an average programmer able to edit pattern-dense code correctly, or when does he eventually destroy patterns by chance?

Thanks for
