Abstract :
A process for building an object-oriented framework based on a pattern language, both for the same domain, is proposed. This process includes several activities, as the identification of the framework hot-spots, the framework design, implementation, and validation. All these activities are supported by the pattern language. Besides that, by using the process here proposed, the resulting framework is implicitly documented by the pattern language. This makes it easier for the developer to instantiate applications, as the knowledge about the pattern language is used during the instantiation process
