This is a reusable implementation of the omnipresent design pattern "Observer".

Note, that a well designed program in Object Teams will usually not require an explicit Observer infrastructure. See the Stopwatch example for an example, how a plain callin-binding suffices.

This demo should, however, give a quick understanding to some techniques of Object Teams for all who are familiar with the Observer pattern (the OTDT ships with a simpler version of this pattern).

ObserverPattern
 This implements the GoF pattern very straight forwardly.

Open spots are:

  • method Subject.changeOp which should be triggered at relevant base-level events
  • and the abstract method Observer.update() which should realize the Observer's reaction.
