1. ECE 264 Object-Oriented Software Development Instructor: Dr. Honggang Wang Fall 2012 Lecture 15: Class diagrams; class relationships

2. Lecture outline Announcements / reminders  Lab 5 to be posted Tuesday; due 10/22 Today  UML class diagrams  Class relationships Association, aggregation, and composition Composition and initialization lists Modeling in UML 7/6/2015 ECE 264: Lecture 15 2

3. UML class diagrams UML class diagram contains 3 boxes  First contains class name  Second contains data members  Third contains member functions For member data/functions  Can list names only, but types/arguments preferred Format: name : type Same format for data/functions—type is fn. return type With function arguments, only types needed  + indicates public  - indicates private 7/6/2015 ECE 264: Lecture 15 3

4. Example: Class diagram Point -xCoord: double -yCoord: double +Point() +Point(double, double) +setX(double) : void +setY(double) : void +getX() : double +getY() : double +printPoint(ostream &) : void +movePoint(double, double) : void 7/6/2015 ECE 264: Lecture 15 4

5. Example 2 Say we have a class to represent a time in 24-hour format; this class should contain:  The number of hours and minutes  Default and parameterized constructors  Set/get functions for all data members  A private “helper” function, extraF, that is only used in other member functions, takes no arguments, and returns an integer Draw a class diagram for this class Using your class diagram, write a header file for the class 7/6/2015 ECE 264: Lecture 15 5

6. Example 2: Time class Time -hours : int -minutes : int +Time() +Time(int, int) +setHours(int) : void +setMinutes(int) : void +getHours() : int +getMinutes() : int -extraF() : int 7/6/2015 ECE 264: Lecture 15 6

7. Example 2: Time.h class Time { public: Time(); Time(int h, int m); void setHours(int newH); void setMinutes(int newM); int getX(); int getY(); private: int hours, minutes; int extraF(); }; 7/6/2015 ECE 264: Lecture 15 7

8. Class relationships Typically have multiple objects in program Different types may interact with one another  Basic interactions: association One class “uses” another in some way Example (from text): ATM “executes” a Withdrawal  Classes as data members: “has a” Two such relationships: aggregation and composition  Difference: are object lifetimes linked?  In composition, if “parent” is destroyed, “child” is as well  Same is not true for aggregation  Can model relationships in UML 7/6/2015 ECE 264: Lecture 15 8

9. Composition example A rectangle is a shape that has a:  point of origin  width  height Can implement this concept by defining a class named Rectangle  Methods might include: Accessing width/height/origin Setting width/height/origin Moving rectangle (i.e., relocating origin) Calculating area 7/6/2015 ECE 264: Lecture 15 9

10. Basic UML composition diagram Shows that Rectangle “has a” Point The 1 indicates Rectangle contains 1 point The closed diamond indicates composition  Objects share “life cycle”—destroy rectangle, and you destroy Point 7/6/2015 ECE 264: Lecture 15 10 Rectangle Point 1 -double width -double height -Point origin +Rectangle()+setOrigin() +getHeight()+setWidth() +getOrigin()+move() +getWidth()+area() +setHeight() 1 1

11. Example code: setOrigin() void Rectangle::setOrigin(double x, double y) { origin.xCoord = x;// Won’t work origin.setY(y); } Example shows two different ways of accessing elements of Point  Directly changing private data still won’t work  Must use set functions 7/6/2015 ECE 264: Lecture 15 11

12. Composition example Write code for:  Rectangle::getOrigin();  Rectangle::setOrigin(); Rewrite example on previous slide to take a Point object, p, as an argument to the function  Rectangle::move(); Takes two arguments—distances to move the x and y coordinates of the origin Note that (most) types are purposely not given 7/6/2015 ECE 264: Lecture 15 12

13. Example solutions Point Rectangle::getOrigin() { return origin; } void Rectangle::setOrigin(Point p) { origin.setX(p.getX()); origin.setY(p.getY()); } void Rectangle::move(double addX, double addY) { origin.move(addX, addY); } 7/6/2015 ECE 264: Lecture 15 13

14. Modeling association Extension of class diagram  When showing relationships, do not need to show all members of class Association contains unidirectional arrow Can specify how many objects are involved  “1 ATM object executes 0 or 1 Withdrawal objects”  Possible multiplicities Constant values: 0, 1, m (integer) Either-or: m,n  “m or n”  0..1 is special case Unknown value: * (non-negative integer) Ranges:  m..n  “at least m but not more than n”  0..*  “zero or more”  1..*  “one or more” 7/6/2015 ECE 264: Lecture 15 14

15. Modeling composition/aggregation Composition indicated by solid diamonds attached to association lines  Aggregation would use hollow diamonds Properties  Only one class represents whole  Parts may only belong to one whole at a time 7/6/2015 ECE 264: Lecture 15 15

16. Initialization lists How would we write Rectangle constructor(s)?  Ideally, we’d like to call Point constructor as well  Use an initialization list Explicitly calls constructors for member data Requires parameterized constructor to be defined Can be used for predefined types as well  Example: Rectangle::Rectangle() : height(1), width(1), origin(0,0) {} 7/6/2015 ECE 264: Lecture 15 16
