Chain of Responsibility: Implementation and Example

Learn the Chain of Responsibility design pattern by implementing an example program.

We'll cover the following...

However, because this is just a conceptual representation of request processing, we won’t have to build a fully-fledged web application. We’ll create a simple console app.

Once created, we’ll add classes representing our Request and Response objects. Our Request object will look like this:

internal class Request
{
  public string? Username { get; set; }
  public string? Password { get; set; }

And here’s what our ...
