Hi
Can anyone pls let me k nw how master slave pattern works
I know only this much that master delegates some of its task to be done by slave
and here is the origin of my doubt
is master a parent class and slave is the child class?
are they related to each other by inheritance
if not then is relationship composite?
If any one can explain it through some dummy example i will be thankful
Thankx in advance

http://www.google.de/search?q=master+slave+design+pattern should give you much resources on the subject. In short: the master is associated to a number of slaves which it delegates work to and assembles the results from.

The soul is dyed the color of its thoughts. Think only on those things that are in line with your principles and can bear the light of day. The content of your character is your choice. Day by day, what you do is who you become. Your integrity is your destiny - it is the light that guides your way. - Heraclitus
