Adapter is a structural design pattern, which allows incompatible objects to collaborate. The Adapter acts as a wrapper between two objects. It catches calls for one object and transforms them to format and interface recognizable by the second object.

How does adapter design pattern work?

The adapter pattern convert the interface of a class into another interface clients expect. Adapter lets classes work together that couldn't otherwise because of incompatible interfaces. The client sees only the target interface and not the adapter. The adapter implements the target interface.

What is adapter pattern in Java?

An Adapter pattern acts as a connector between two incompatible interfaces that otherwise cannot be connected directly. An Adapter wraps an existing class with a new interface so that it becomes compatible with the client's interface.
