Stirewalt–R. Johnson, B. Foote–Johnson, Fayad, SchmidtCSE870: Advanced Software Engineering (Frameworks, Part 2)RRROverview•Review of object-oriented programming (OOP) principles. •Intro to OO frameworks: oKey characteristics. oUses. oBlack-box vs. white-box frameworks. •Example study: Animations in the subArctic UI toolkit.CSE870: Advanced Software Engineering (Frameworks, Part 2)RRRRecap on OOP•Key features that differentiate OOP from traditional block-structured languages: –Polymorphism: a late-binding feature, whereby a procedure is dynamically bound to a message request. –Inheritance: allows operations to be defined in one (parent) class and then overridden in another (child) class. •Inheritance and polymorphism together are the principle tools of OO frameworks.CSE870: Advanced Software Engineering (Frameworks, Part 2)RRRInheritance and polymorphism •Subclasses provide different methods for same operation. •Benefit: Enables decoupling of cooperating classes. –Clients need not know how an operation is implemented. –Thus, designs are portable and extensible. –Code can be reused. •Two cases: 1. Superclass provides a method for the operation. •we say the subclass overrides this method. •subclass method may explicitly invoke superclass method. 2. Superclass provides no method for the operation. •we say the operation is abstract in the superclass.CSE870: Advanced Software Engineering (Frameworks, Part 2)RRRProtocol •Operations performed on objects by ``sending them messages''. •Specification of an object given by its message protocol: –Set of messages that can be sent to it; –Includes type of arguments of each message. •Objects with identical protocols are interchangeable. •Interface between objects defined by protocols they expect each other to understand. •In most languages, protocol is bound to an object's class1.CSE870: Advanced Software Engineering (Frameworks, Part 2)RRRAbstract classes •Defn: class that cannot have any instances. •Only subclasses can have instances. •How to specify that a class is abstract: –C++: Implicit; abstract class has pure virtual functions. –Java: •Class can be explicitly declared abstract, or •Abstract operations can be grouped into an interface. •Used to define standard protocols.CSE870: Advanced Software Engineering (Frameworks, Part 2)RRRUse of Abstract Class to Represent a ProtocolCSE870: Advanced Software Engineering (Frameworks, Part 2)RRRAbstract Operations and Design Coupling•Imagine: a tool that places figures on a grid. –Example: gridding of program icons in a window manager. –Example: placement of button figures in a panel. •Grid-management code allocates figures to grid positions, avoiding collisions and possibly implementing a fill policy. •Code should not be concerned with how to draw a figure. •Question: How do you separate grid management from the drawing of figures?CSE870: Advanced Software Engineering (Frameworks, Part 2)RRRExample Decoupling using abstract operationsCSE870: Advanced Software Engineering (Frameworks, Part 2)RRRExample: Use of these classes#include "Square.h" #include "Triangle.h" #include "Circle.h" #include "Grid.h" ...
