using design patterns for software development

Question

I am developing a desktop application using C#. I want to use design patterns but do not have any experience in using them. I searched in net but can not found any good examples helpful for me like beginners. They have some block of code to demonstrate the design patterns but I can not understand how can I use them when I develop my applications.

How can I implement design patterns when developing real life applications, please can anyone guide me. Can we use design patter with sql code too?

I've no experience in using design patterns now I really want to use them in my application development. I searched in net, I can found only code blocks showing examples of design patterns but they do not explain how it can be implemented in s/w development, or may be for me beginners hard to understand those examples.

Please can anyone share me how can I write code for my application implementing the design patterns.

Note :: I am coding for a desktop application (inventory management system), so please if you provide examples related to this it will be more helpful for me to understand.

Yes why not. But first you need to clarify what do you mean to say by Design pattern ? You have not specified anything related to the Design. If you wanted to share the views about database then you should have meant or mentioned the database design approach. Otherwise the software development pattern. In that question database was mentioned and also a Singleton pattern for objects in the application. You should know that both concepts are different. Singleton pattern allows you to have only one instance of object in the application thus preventing you from having another object instance. You can use this if you want to use only one instance of object... Objects are database instances connection strings and other pool-based connections. What were you looking for? Clarify it so that we can solve the riddle. :-)

actually not for design interface. I came to know that we can use design pattern for connection string but I do not know how to use. I searched in net and found that when we have multiple database we can use design pattern to select for the database. Is this is one of the case. also I found one link :: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/814206/getting-db-connection-through-singleton-class Please guide me I need to learn. thank you for your quick response.

Do you mean to design the user-interface ?

thanks for the reply Afzaal Ahmad Zeeshan. I am doing MVC (ASP.NET). Now I want to implement design patterns. I want to say I am beginner for implementing design patterns not with C# or ASP.NET. Please guide me. thanks!!!

Hello Instead of design... You should use programming models and architecture patterns. Beginners have problems understanding the software development patterns and other similar stuff. Because they are either too complicated into technical grammar or either the beginner doesn't have enough time. Somehow there is a framework (pattern) that I believe would be much easier for you to learn and build your applications over; MVC. It stands for Model View Controller MVC is a competing pattern for software development purposes. You can use it. If you want to learn it here is an article of mine which would assist you.
