Acknowledgments

As with the first two editions, this book required the combined efforts of many people. I

would like to take the time to acknowledge as many of these people as possible, for

without them, this book would never have happened.

First and foremost, I would like to thank my wife Sharon for all of her help. Not only

did she provide support and encouragement throughout this lengthy process, she is also

the first line editor for all of my writing.

I would also like to thank my mom and the rest of my family for their continued

support.

I have really enjoyed working with the people at Pearson on all three editions of this

book.Working with editors Mark Taber, Seth Kerney,Vanessa Evans, and Songlin Qiu has

been a pleasure.

A special thanks goes to Jon Upchurch for his help with much of the code as well as

the technical editing of the manuscript.

Finally, thanks to my daughters, Stacy and Stephanie, and my cat Duffy for keeping

me on my toes.

Introduction

This Book’s Scope

As the title indicates, this book is about the object-oriented (OO) thought process. Obvi-

ously, choosing the theme and title of the book are important decisions; however, these

decisions were not all that simple. Numerous books deal with various levels of object ori-

entation. Several popular books deal with topics including OO analysis, OO design, OO

programming, design patterns, OO data (XML), the Unified Modeling Language (UML),

OO Internet development, various OO programming languages, and many other topics

related to OO development.

However, while pouring over all of these books, many people forget that all of these

topics are built on a single foundation: how you think in OO ways. It is unfortunate, but

software professionals often dive into these books without taking the appropriate time

and effort to really understand the concepts behind the content.

I contend that learning OO concepts is not accomplished by learning a specific devel-

opment method or a set of tools. Doing things in an OO manner is, simply put, a way of

thinking.This book is all about the OO thought process.

Separating the methods and tools from the OO thought process is not easy. Many peo-

ple are introduced to OO concepts via one of these methods or tools. For example, years

ago, most C programmers were first introduced to object orientation by migrating di-

rectly to C++—before they were even remotely exposed to OO concepts. Other soft-

ware professionals were first introduced to object orientation by presentations that

included object models using UML—again, before they were even exposed directly to

OO concepts. It is not unusual to find that programming books and courses defer OO

concepts until later in the learning process.

It is important to understand the significant difference between learning OO concepts

and using the methods and tools that support the paradigm.This came into focus for me

before I worked on the first edition of this book when I read articles such as Craig Lar-

man’s “What the UML Is—and Isn’t,” In this article he states,

Unfortunately, in the context of software engineering and the UML diagramming language,

acquiring the skills to read and write UML notation seems to sometimes be equated with

skill in object-oriented analysis and design. Of course, this is not so, and the latter is much

more important than the former. Therefore, I recommend seeking education and educational

materials in which intellectual skill in object-oriented analysis and design is paramount

rather than UML notation or the use of a case tool.

Introduction

Although learning a modeling language is an important step, it is much more impor-

tant to learn OO skills first. Learning UML before OO concepts is similar to learning

how to read an electrical diagram without first knowing anything about electricity.

The same problem occurs with programming languages. As stated earlier, many C

programmers moved into the realm of object orientation by migrating to C++ before

being directly exposed to OO concepts.This would always come out in an interview.

Many times developers who claim to be C++ programmers are simply C programmers

using C++ compilers. Even now, with languages such as C# .NET,VB .NET, and Java

well established, a few key questions in a job interview can quickly uncover a lack of

OO understanding.

Early versions of Visual Basic are not OO. C is not OO, and C++ was developed to be

backward compatible with C. Because of this, it is quite possible to use a C++ compiler

(writing only C syntax) while forsaking all of C++’s OO features. Even worse, a pro-

grammer can use just enough OO features to make a program incomprehensible to OO

and non-OO programmers alike.

Thus, it is of vital importance that while you’re on the road to OO development, you

first learn the fundamental OO concepts. Resist the temptation to jump directly into a

programming language (such as VB .NET, C++, C# .NET or Java) or a modeling lan-

guage (such as UML), and take the time to learn the object-oriented thought process.

In my first class in Smalltalk in the late 1980s, the instructor told the class that the new

OO paradigm was a totally new way of thinking (despite the fact that it has been around since

the 60s). He went on to say that although all of us were most likely very good program-

mers, about 10%–20% of us would never really grasp the OO way of doing things. If this

statement is indeed true, it is most likely because some people never really take the time

to make the paradigm shift and learn the underlying OO concepts.

What’s New in the Third Edition

As stated often in this introduction, my vision for the first edition was primarily a con-

ceptual book.Although I still adhere to this goal for the second and third editions, I have

included several application topics that fit well with object-oriented concepts. For the

third edition I expand on many of the topics of the second edition and well as include

totally new chapters.These revised and updated concepts

XML is used for object communication.

Object persistence and serialization.

XML integrated into the languages object definition.

Adding properties to attributes.

XML-based Internet applications.

Client/Server technologies.

Expanded code examples in Java, C# .NET and VB .NET.

This Book’s Scope

The chapters that cover these topics are still conceptual in nature; however, many of the

chapters include Java code that shows how these concepts are implemented. In this third

edition, a code appendix is included that presents the chapter’s examples in C# .NET and

Visual Basic .NET.

The Intended Audience

This book is a general introduction to fundamental OO concepts with code examples to

reinforce the concepts. One of the most difficult juggling acts was to keep the material

conceptual while still providing a solid, technical code base.The goal of this book is to al-

low a reader to understand the concepts and technology without having a compiler at

hand. However, if you do have a compiler available, then there is code to be investigated.

The intended audience includes business managers, designers, developers, program-

mers, project managers, and anyone who wants to gain a general understanding of what

object orientation is all about. Reading this book should provide a strong foundation for

moving to other books covering more advanced OO topics.

Of these more advanced books, one of my favorites remains Object-Oriented Design in

Java by Stephen Gilbert and Bill McCarty. I really like the approach of the book, and have

used it as a textbook in classes I have taught on OO concepts. I cite Object-Oriented De-

you complete this one.

Other books that I have found very helpful include Effective C++ by Scott Meyers,

Classical and Object-Oriented Software Engineering by Stephen R. Schach, Thinking in C++

by Bruce Eckel, UML Distilled by Martin Flower, and Java Design by Peter Coad and

Mark Mayfield.

The conceptual nature of this book provides a unique perspective in regards to other

computer technology books.While books that focus on specific technologies, such as

programming languages, struggle with the pace of change, this book has the luxury of

presenting established concepts that, while certainly being fine-tuned, do not experience

radical changes.With this in mind, many of the books that were referenced several years

ago, are still referenced because the concepts are still fundamentally the same.

This Book’s Scope

It should be obvious by now that I am a firm believer in becoming comfortable with the

object-oriented thought process before jumping into a programming language or model-

ing language.This book is filled with examples of code and UML diagrams; however, you

do not need to know a specific programming language or UML to read it.After all I have

said about learning the concepts first, why is there so much Java, C# .NET, and VB .NET

code and so many UML diagrams? First, they are all great for illustrating OO concepts.

Second, both are vital to the OO process and should be addressed at an introductory

level.The key is not to focus on Java, C# .NET, and VB .NET or UML, but to use them

as aids in the understanding of the underlying concepts.
