Study Notes
Introduction to Object-Oriented System Development
- Object orientation is a programming paradigm that focuses on the concept of objects as the building blocks of software systems.
- An object is a distinct entity within a software system, representing something in the real world.
- Objects have attributes that store information (data) and methods that define their behavior and actions.
- The concept of data encapsulation is integral to object orientation, where an object's internal attributes are hidden from external access.
- Methods enable objects to interact with each other by accessing or modifying each other's attributes.
- Object orientation offers benefits for software complexity management, such as simpler extensibility, better testability, and improved maintainability.
Case Study: An Online Shop for Media
- For an online shop selling media (books, music, etc.), a "Customer" class is a good example of object-oriented modeling.
- Each "Customer" object has attributes such as last name, first name, birthdate, and sex.
- These attributes are defined within the "Customer" class, encapsulating the data associated with each individual customer.
Properties of Attributes in Object-Oriented Modeling
- Each attribute within a class has specific properties that define its characteristics and behavior.
- Essential properties include a name for the attribute (e.g., "firstname"), a data type (e.g., "Date", "String", "Integer"), and a default value (e.g., "2020-01-01").
- Other optional properties include constants (indicating whether the attribute can be changed) and source (the origin of the value).
Example Scenario: A Coffee Machine
- Object orientation can be used to model real-world scenarios.
- A simple coffee machine can be decomposed into cooperating objects like a water tank, water pipe, filter, heating element, hot plate, and coffee pot.
- Each object has specific attributes and methods representing its functionality.
- The interaction between these objects defines the overall behavior of the coffee machine.
Interaction and Cooperation Between Objects
- Object-oriented systems rely on interaction and cooperation between objects.
- Objects communicate with each other by invoking methods on each other.
- The state of an object is defined by the values of its attributes.
- Objects created from the same class with identical attribute values are considered identical.
The Software Development Process
- The software development process involves various distinct phases.
- Object-oriented software development follows a systematic approach, typically including phases such as analysis, design, implementation, testing, and deployment.
- These phases can be executed iteratively and incrementally for better adaptability and flexibility.
