title: Curiously Recurring Template Pattern | ||
language: en | ||
--- | ||
|
||
## Name / classification | ||
|
||
Curiously Recurring Template Pattern | ||
|
||
## Also known as | ||
|
||
Recursive Type Bound, Recursive Generic | ||
|
||
## Intent | ||
|
||
Allow derived components to inherit certain functionalities from a base component that are compatible with the derived type. | ||
|
||
## Explanation | ||
|
||
Real-world example | ||
|
||
> For a mixed martial arts promotion that is planning an event, ensuring that the fights are organized between athletes | ||
> of the same weight class is crucial. This prevents mismatches between fighters of significantly different sizes, such | ||
> as a heavyweight facing off against a bantamweight. | ||
|
||
In plain words | ||
|
||
> Make certain methods within a type to accept arguments specific to its subtypes. | ||
|
||
Wikipedia says | ||
|
||
> The curiously recurring template pattern (CRTP) is an idiom, originally in C++, in which a class X | ||
> derives from a class template instantiation using X itself as a template argument. | ||
|
||
**Programmatic example** | ||
|
||
Let's define the generic interface Fighter | ||
|
||
```java | ||
public interface Fighter<T> { | ||
|
||
void fight(T t); | ||
|
||
} | ||
``` | ||
|
||
The MMAFighter class is used to instantiate fighters distinguished by their weight class | ||
|
||
```java | ||
public class MmaFighter<T extends MmaFighter<T>> implements Fighter<T> { | ||
|
||
private final String name; | ||
private final String surname; | ||
private final String nickName; | ||
private final String speciality; | ||
|
||
public MmaFighter(String name, String surname, String nickName, String speciality) { | ||
this.name = name; | ||
this.surname = surname; | ||
this.nickName = nickName; | ||
this.speciality = speciality; | ||
} | ||
|
||
@Override | ||
public void fight(T opponent) { | ||
LOGGER.info("{} is going to fight against {}", this, opponent); | ||
} | ||
|
||
@Override | ||
public String toString() { | ||
return name + " \"" + nickName + "\" " + surname; | ||
} | ||
``` | ||
|
||
The followings are some subtypes of MmaFighter | ||
|
||
```java | ||
class MmaBantamweightFighter extends MmaFighter<MmaBantamweightFighter> { | ||
|
||
public MmaBantamweightFighter(String name, String surname, String nickName, String speciality) { | ||
super(name, surname, nickName, speciality); | ||
} | ||
|
||
} | ||
|
||
public class MmaHeavyweightFighter extends MmaFighter<MmaHeavyweightFighter> { | ||
|
||
public MmaHeavyweightFighter(String name, String surname, String nickName, String speciality) { | ||
super(name, surname, nickName, speciality); | ||
} | ||
|
||
} | ||
``` | ||
|
||
A fighter is allowed to fight an opponent of the same weight classes, if the opponent is of a different weight class | ||
there is an error | ||
|
||
```java | ||
MmaBantamweightFighter fighter1 = new MmaBantamweightFighter("Joe", "Johnson", "The Geek", "Muay Thai"); | ||
MmaBantamweightFighter fighter2 = new MmaBantamweightFighter("Ed", "Edwards", "The Problem Solver", "Judo"); | ||
fighter1.fight(fighter2); // This is fine | ||
|
||
MmaHeavyweightFighter fighter3 = new MmaHeavyweightFighter("Dave", "Davidson", "The Bug Smasher", "Kickboxing"); | ||
MmaHeavyweightFighter fighter4 = new MmaHeavyweightFighter("Jack", "Jackson", "The Pragmatic", "Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu"); | ||
fighter3.fight(fighter4); // This is fine too | ||
|
||
fighter1.fight(fighter3); // This will raise a compilation error | ||
``` | ||
|
||
## Class diagram | ||
|
||
![alt text](./etc/crtp.png "CRTP class diagram") | ||
|
||
## Applicability | ||
|
||
Use the Curiously Recurring Template Pattern when | ||
|
||
* You have type conflicts when chaining methods in an object hierarchy | ||
* You want to use a parameterized class method that can accept subclasses of the class as arguments, allowing it to be applied to objects that inherit from the class | ||
* You want certain methods to work only with instances of the same type, such as for achieving mutual comparability. | ||
