Summary

Adds a new implementation demonstrating the Template Method pattern integrated with the Strategy pattern. This example shows how to combine both behavioral patterns effectively.

The implementation includes:

  • Abstract base class AbstractSortStrategy using the Template Method pattern
  • Template method sort() that defines the algorithm skeleton
  • Abstract method getComparator() allowing subclasses to customize behavior
  • Multiple concrete strategy implementations (NameSortStrategy, RatingSortStrategy, StudentCountSortStrategy, StudentCountAndRatingSortStrategy)
  • Support for ascending/descending sort direction
  • Complete working example with MainApp demonstrating pattern usage

Technical Details

  • Location: section-04-behavioral-design-patterns/12-template/
  • Language: Java 24
  • Build tool: Maven
  • Compilation status: Verified successful build

Test Plan

  • Build verification: Maven compilation successful
  • Code follows existing repository patterns and conventions
  • JavaDoc comments present for all classes
  • No compilation errors or warnings (excluding JDK version warnings)
