Difference between Adapter pattern and Proxy Pattern

ADAPTER PATTERN

1. Indian mobile charger (CLIENT) does not fit in USA switch board (SERVER).
2. You need to use adapter so that Indian mobile charger (CLIENT) can fit in USA switch board (SERVER).
3. From point 2, you can understand that the CLIENT contacts adapter directly. Then adapter contacts server.

PROXY PATTERN

• In adapter pattern client directly contacts adapter. It does not contact server.
• In proxy pattern, proxy and server implements the same interface. Client would call the same interface.

UNDERSTANDING THROUGH CODE

class client{
    public void main(){
      //proxy pattern
      IServer iserver = new proxy();
      iserver.invoke();

      //adapter pattern
      IAdapter iadapter = new adapter();
      iserver.iadapter();
    }
}

class server implements IServer{
    public void invoke(){}
}

class proxy implments IServer{
  public void invoke(){}
}

class adapter implements IAdapter{
  public void invoke(){}
}
