[osflash] MVP and pureMVC differences

[Thomas Wester]

As I understand it, MVP is a Microsoft branding of design approaches
like pureMVC or Cairngorm. I am not sure how much you can speak in terms
of "better" or "worse".

Subject: [osflash] MVP and pureMVC differences



Hi everybody, 
discussing with a friend we were talking about pureMVC. I'm using
pureMVC since the le beginning of the year and he studied something
about MVP smalltalk pattern. MVP pattern is used for .net application
too, so i decided to discover more about it 

As every time i have to start with a new thing, I open wikipedia and I
read this 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Model_View_Presenter
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Model_View_Presenter> 

so i thought "ok, Presenter is a new layer between controller and
view... so it is the pureMVC mediator"... 
i think i'm wrong because I'm reading this one
http://www.wildcrest.com/Potel/Portfolio/mvp.pdf
<http://www.wildcrest.com/Potel/Portfolio/mvp.pdf>  and presenter is
described as controller

so please someone can explain me which are differences between the 2
patterns and why some one think MVP is so better then MVC ? 


thanks
Teo
