Behavioral Design Patterns in C++ - Dynamic Array - IV

The video tutorial discusses the application of the strategy pattern to manage locking mechanisms in programming. It introduces the concept of creating a base class for lock policies and implementing mutex locks. The tutorial explains dependency injection, particularly constructor injection, to set lock policies. It addresses issues like handling null values and using locks in single-threaded applications. The video concludes by acknowledging the need for a better approach to avoid conditional statements and hints at future discussions.

Discuss the implications of using constructor injection for setting the lock policy.

What are the potential drawbacks of having conditional statements in the lock policy code?

What alternative approach is suggested to avoid null checks in the lock policy implementation?
