Lecture #11 - Open/Closed Principle

Web Resources:

Office Hours: Instructor & TAs

Content:

1. Syllabus
   Describes topics to be covered, reading material for you to digest before coming to class, and due dates for the assigned projects.
2. Project #2
   Graph data type and graph algorithms.
3. XMLParsing or XMLTran
   Two modules that do basic XML handling - building XML strings and pulling them apart. They do not understand XML namespaces or schemas. Either on will work for Project #2.
4. Project #2 Help
   I Recommend that you use either Graph1 or Graph2 as a prototype for your implementations.
5. Heterogeneous List Structure
   Unusual use of Liskov Substitution
6. Open/Closed Principle
   Another fundamental OOD principle that argues for using inheritance "hooks" and template-based classes.
7. Extensible Parsing, from Project #1
   This demonstrates the Open/Closed Principle by binding rules and actions to interfaces, used by the parser.
8. The Adapter Pattern
   This pattern, one of about 30 we discuss in CSE776 - Design Patterns, illustrates one way to adhere to the Open/Closed Principle.
9. Satisfying the Open/Closed Principle
   Protocols, Hooks, Policies, Inheriting Concrete Classes.
10. Run-Time Type Indentification Presentation
    RTTI is, perhaps, the antithesis of the Open/Closed Principle. Paradoxically, I used it building the trace class.
11. Lecture #11 folder
    Contains a page of links to presentations and code discussed in this class. The Lecture folders will occasionally hold physical files of interest as well. Usually, however, all the materials of interest to the class are in the presentations and code folders. The contents of these folders will grow as you progress through the course.
