Synopsis

With the release of OpenStep products, NeXT and Sun introduce a bold new generation of object-oriented software development tools. These OpenStep products arm developers with frameworks and sets of reusable classes, as well as a suite of powerful new tools, that make developing custom client/server applications easier, faster, and cheaper than ever before. This book/disk package helps you quickly master all of OpenStep's powerful new features to build, deploy, and maintain large applications for both UNIX and Windows.

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.
