2. Goals How to design classes How to think in terms of objects StarUML Code Generation

3. How to Design Classes What objects to choose to solve a given problem? – What classes will we need to implement a system that meets our requirements? – What fields and methods will each class have? – How will the classes interact with each other? http://www.yyu.edu.tr/abis/admin/dosya/5637/files/UML%20Tasar%C4%B1m.pdf

4. Good Class Design Cohesive – only one abstraction No unnecessary coupling – No printing to a specific device such as screen scanner Related data in the same class

5. Class UML Diagram Each class box: – Name / state / behavior Relations – Has a – Knows a – Uses a – Is a Great Explanation matched to code – http://www.cse.buffalo.edu/faculty/adrienne/Clas sResources/ClassDiagramsInANutshell/ http://www.cse.buffalo.edu/faculty/adrienne/Clas sResources/ClassDiagramsInANutshell/

6. CRC cards One per noun / entity / object Class: Noun is the class name on the top Responsibility: List responsibilities on the left Collaboration: List collaborating objects on the right – If a class is being used in a collaboration, its card will not show the collaboration – the user shows the collaboration

7. CRC Exercise 5 card draw List objects / entities Make one card for each Walk through the game Draw a UML diagram

10. Summary StarUML CRC Cards Good design principles – Cohesive - one abstraction – No unnecessary coupling – Related data in the same class
