Talk:Chain-of-responsibility pattern

Would appreciate an example in which applying this pattern resolves a design flaw... Thanks -- User:Euyyn

Is the example correct?

By my reading of how this pattern works, each successor is called until a successor in the chain handles the call. Then the chain stops. This is stated at the top of page 224 of the Design Patterns book. The example for Java shows each item on the chain being able to perform some example. So I don't think it is an actual example of a 'pure' chain of responsibility. Pcraven 20:10, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
