For what I can understand you have one class 'b' in B library that you want to use with alghoritms of _both_ A and B library the pattern is:
1 - get the class 'a' subclassing 'b'; class a : b 2 - add to 'a' interfaces to deal with algorithms of library A 3 - implement that interfaces using methods of 'b' and/or functions of library B acting on 'b' 4 - use 'a' with library A using the above interface 5 - use 'a' with library B because base class of 'a' is a 'b' Is this interpretation correct ?
Quoting John Femiani <JOHN.FEMIANI@asu.edu>:
So the "concept" is also an "adapter"?
I think a is more like a ConceptMap (basicaly an adapter to a concept) and it was clear from a previous mail that it was considered like this (the code sample was something like PointConceptMap). I suppose ConceptMap just became Concept during the discution. -- Cédric
