The Dependency Inversion Principle is part of the SOLID principles. If you want a formal definition of DIP, please read the articles written by Martin[1] and Schuchert[2]. We explained that, in order to invert the control of the flow, our specialized code must never call directly methods of more abstracted classes. The methods of the classes of […]
In the previous article I explained what the Inversion of Control principle is, then I introduced the concept of Inversion of Flow control. In this article I will illustrate how to apply it properly, even without using an IoC container. In order to do so, I will talk about Entity Component System design. While apparently it has nothing to […]
Note: this article assumes you already read my previous articles on IoC containers and the Part I Inversion of Control is another concept that turns out to be very simple once it has been fully processed or rather saying “absorbed”. Absorbed as going over being understood and becoming part of one’s own forma mentis. However, make no […]
Note: this article series assumes you have already read my previous articles on IoC containers. There is an evil truth behind the concept of Inversion of Control container. An unspoken code tragedy taking place everyday while passing unnoticed. Firm in my intentions to stop this shame, I decided to stand up and start writing this series of articles […]
If it’s the first time you visit my blog, please don’t forget to read my main articles on the subject before to continue this post: http://www.sebaslab.com/ioc-container-for-unity3d-part-1/ http://www.sebaslab.com/ioc-container-for-unity3d-part-2/ It’s finally time to share the latest version of my Inversion of Control container, which I named Svelto IoC, which I will keep updated from now on. This new […]
In my previous article, I briefly introduced the problems related to inject dependencies using the Unity 3D Framework. I did not give an in depth explanation because only those who understood the problem by themselves, can really understand why a solution is needed. Contrarily you may think that all this theory is irrelevant as long as “things get done”…well […]
Unity is a good game development tool and honestly I like most of its features. However the code framework is awkward to use on big projects where code maintainability is of fundamental importance. As you may have guessed, the following considerations in this article do not apply to simple projects or projects developed by one or two coders. For […]
