Intent
Without violating encapsulation, capture and externalize an object's internal state so that the object can be restored to this state later.
Applicability
Use the Memento pattern when
- a snapshot of an object's state must be saved so that it can be restored to that state later, and
- a direct interface to obtaining the state would expose implementation details and break the object's encapsulation
