The bridge pattern is a software design pattern that decouples an abstraction from its implementation, allowing them to vary independently. It uses encapsulation, aggregation, and can use inheritance to separate responsibilities into different classes. The bridge pattern is useful when a class and what it does need to vary often. It can be thought of as two layers of abstraction, with the class being the implementation and what the class can do being the abstraction. The bridge pattern is often confused with and implemented using the adapter pattern.

pattern used insoftware engineering which is meant to "decouple anabstraction from itsimplementation so that the two can vary independently"[1]. The bridge usesencapsulation, aggr egation, and can use inheritance to separate responsibilities into different classes. When a class varies often, the features of object-oriented programming become very useful because changes to a program's code can be made easily with minimal prior knowledge about the program. The bridge pattern is useful when both the class as well as what it does vary often. The class itself can be thought of as the implementation and what the class can do as the abstraction. The bridge pattern can also be thought of as two layers of abstraction. The bridge pattern is often confused with the adapter pattern. In fact, the bridge pattern is often implemented using the class adapter pattern, e.g. in the C++ code below. Variant: The implementation can be decoupled even more by deferring the presence of the implementation to the point where the abstraction is utilized. Abstraction defines the abstract interface maintains the Implementor reference RefinedAbstraction extends the interface defined by Abstraction Implementor defines the interface for implementation classes ConcreteImplementor implements the Implementor interface [e
