java - Examples of Design Patterns used in JDK












At an interview a while back I was asked for some examples of Design Patterns within the JDK.



Off the top of my head I was able to identify



Flyweight - as used in the String pool
Singleton - in java.lang.Runtime
Iterator - as used on Collections classes

What are the other good examples of Design Patterns as used in the JDK?
