Design Patterns

Where is a good source for learning Design Patterns?
Has anyone heard of what is called "Gang of 4" and "Model via Control"?

MVC is Model-View-Control pattern. This pattern isn't cover in Design Pattern written by GoF but you can find it in other books. If you have been writting code in MFC, the Document/View architecture is actually a variant of MVC.

Hi
Are there any design architectures other than MVC which are normally used in the development of a application?

Thanks in advance

Definitely, there are a lot more. Some of them are already quite well-known, like layer, pipeline, filter, proxy and even blackboard.

I have to create a MDI application in VC++. Now other than the Document/View architecture provided by MFC are there any other design pattern which can be used for my application?

Also can the MVC and Doc/View architecture be mapped directly?

Sorry for the late reply. I have been busy on some work.

As a matter of fact, the Document/View is actually a variant of MVC. The 'C' and "V' parts of the MVC architecture pattern are combined into the View part of Document/View.
