Functions and Anonymous Classes in Scala PRO

When calling a function we indirectly invoke the apply method on the object that represents the function. We can use the anonymous inner class syntax for defining a new anonymous inner class that extends the Function relevant trait in order to create a new function. The following code sample shows that.

object HelloSample
{
  def main(args:Array[String]):Unit =
  {
    val func1 = (num:Int) => 2*num
    println(func1(4))
    val func2 = new Function1[Int,Int]
    {
      def apply(num:Int) = 2*num
    }
    println(func2(4))
  }
}

The following video shows the execution of this code sample, overviews it and provides more in-depth explanation.

The Visitor Design Pattern

The Visitor Design Pattern

The visitor design pattern allows us to add operations to objects that already exist without modifying their classes and without extending them.
