Context
You used
CautiousBuyOverBuild and decided to integrate a prebuilt component or framework into your solution. The component or framework acts as an adapter to another component or framework for a subset of its functionality.
You might be developing a framework and have
LayeredFrameworks on top of each other to reduce a solution's complexity.
For whatever reason (e.g., functionality isn't suitable, unacceptable bugs or performance issues exist), you've determined that you can't use a portion of its functionality.
Problem
How do you work around the problem?
Forces
- You've acquired the component or framework and can't modify its implementation.
- Component or framework providers are unwilling to make the necessary changes to resolve issues.
- It is easy to work around the problem rather than reinventing the solution.
