Whether you're new to software patterns or a veteran, you'll find this catalog can help you every day Software patterns are timesavers and problem-solvers. While new patterns are continually being discovered, those already articulated are as valuable in helping programmers identify emerging patterns as they are to the software development process. This book covers some of the best-known design patterns in Visual Basic and introduces more than two dozen additional ones. You'll learn how to write your own patterns in Visual Basic .NET, how UML is used to document patterns, and where design patterns should not be used.
