Behavioral Design Patterns in C++ - Help System - II

The video tutorial explains the implementation of a help system using the Chain of Responsibility pattern. It begins with setting up a new project and adding a base clause for help components, including attributes and methods. The tutorial then covers the creation of a virtual function called 'show help' with a default implementation to reduce boilerplate code. It proceeds to develop various help classes like Quick, Local, and Online help, each handling specific topics. The client class, represented by a button, is designed to request help through a chain of these classes. The video concludes with testing the help system, demonstrating how requests are passed through the chain until a suitable handler is found or a 'no help available' message is displayed.
