The Object-oriented Patterns rule category contains patterns that
show abstraction and inheritance trees.
Purpose
The following table lists each pattern, and
its purpose, in the Object-oriented Patterns category:
| Pattern |
Purpose |
|---|
| Abstraction |
The Abstraction pattern represents a system concept. The architectural
discovery algorithm identifies Abstraction as an abstract class or an interface. |
| Inheritance Tree |
The Inheritance Tree pattern is based on standard object-oriented
inheritance relationships between objects in a system. The architectural discovery
algorithm identifies Inheritance as the implementation of an interface or
an extension of a class. |
