Large enterprises wishing to succeed with objects need to do more than just adopt the right tools. The nifty user interface you create practically overnight with OpenStep may be just a nice wrapper around the same old spaghetti code. That's why Nancy Craighill introduces you to the entire life cycle of object-oriented development and covers in depth the analysis, design, and implementation stages. This book contains valuable information for both managers and programmers. Packed with real-life examples, OpenStep for Enterprises:
- Introduces object-oriented concepts and programming in Objective-C
- Provides an overview of the object-oriented life cycle and techniques for managing object-oriented development
- Schools you in widely used object-oriented methods and notations, including Objectory and Booch
- Teaches you how to use OpenStep development tools
- Introduces commonly used OpenStep classes for implementing user interfaces and the Model-View-Controller paradigm
- Shows you how to design client/server applications using Distributed Objects
- Contains dozens of actual design and code examples, using the Booch notation and OpenStep classes
An introduction to developing client/server applications using OpenStep
On the disk you'll find the source code for the example application presented in the book, a CRC cards analysis tool that uses Distributed Objects to support group collaboration in creating analysis cards.
