Source code to support the book Object-Oriented Software Engineering: Practical Software Development using UML and Java

Below you will find the source code that supports our book. This material is made available according to the terms of our open source license, which you should read.

We welcome all suggestions for improvements to the code and will post updated versions, and additional code, here from time to time. To make suggestions, you can email us or use our feedback form.

Instructors also have access to the answers to exercises, including code for all the answers requiring programming.

The software is designed to run on version 1.2 of Java and later. We have tested this version on Windows and Solaris platforms.

• Javadoc documentation for all the source code listed below..

• ZIP file with all the code listed below.. (Note: If you plan to use very simple Windows editors such as WordPad then you may want to load this zip file instead, which has a slightly different text file format that is more compatible with such editors).

• ZIP file with all the code plus compiled class files listed below.

• OCSF (The Object Client-Server Framework)

  This is discussed in detail in Chapter 3, with extensions added in Chapter 6. It forms the basis of SimpleChat (below), for which there are project exercises at the end of several chapters. Since it is a framework, you should not need to modify this code.

  • The most recent version of OCSF (2.31) can be found here.

  • Summary of how to install and use ocsf.

  • Client side code
    • AbstractClient.java (See book page 84)
    • AdaptableClient.java (See book page 222)
    • ObservableClient.java (See book page 222)

  • Server side code
    • AbstractServer.java (See book page 84)
    • ConnectionToClient.java (See book page 84)
    • AdaptableServer.java (See book page 222)
    • ObservableServer.java (See book page 222)

• SimpleChat Phase 1 (See book page 91).

  This is a simple instant messaging system that illustrates the use of OCSF. You will modify this if you follow the exercises throughout the book.

  • Summary of how to install and use SimpleChat phase 1.

  • Testcases for SimpleChat phase 1.

  • ChatIF.java. The Java interface used to help isolate the user interface from the functional part of the code.
  • ChatClient.java. The functional layer of SimpleChat's client side..
  • ClientConsole.java. The textual user interface of SimpleChat's client side.
  • EchoServer.java. The server off SimpleChat phase 1, which lacks any capability for user input.

• SimpleChat Phase 2 (See book page 96-99 for exercises relating to this).
  • Testcases for SimpleChat phase 2. These are needed for exercise P3.5

• OCSF Simple GUIs (See book page 260-263) and Test Harness (See book pages 378-379).

  This is a graphical application for testing OCSF. It includes a basic AWT-based client and server, as well as test drivers to automatically take clients and servers through random sequences of activity.

  • Summary of how to install and use the OCSF tester.

  • ClientFrame.java. A simple client GUI.
  • ClientsFrame.java. A client GUI that randomly operates a set of clients arranged in a grid.
  • SimpleClient.java. The basic client functional layer implementation.

  • ServerFrame.java. A basic server UI.
  • ServerDriver.java. A server UI that cycles the server through various states.
  • SimpleServer.java. The basic server functional layer implementation.

• Postal Code Example (See book page 52).

  This example illustrates some basic features of Java. It is designed to help readers refresh their memories of Java as they work through some exercises.

  • Summary of how to install and use the postal example.

  • PostalCode.java. The superclass of the following three classes.
  • BritishPostalCode.java
  • CanadianPostalCode.java
  • USZipCode.java
  • PostalCodeException.java
  • PostalTest.java. The UI class.

• PointCP Example This is another example that helps readers practise using Java and doing basic OO design before moving on to more advanced material in the book.
  • Summary of how to install and use the PointCP example.

  • PointCP.java
  • PointCPTest.java. The UI class.

• DrawPad source. (See book page 266 - this is a separate zip file)

• Threads Example.

  This example is not in the book, but is included in the Java review material found on the book's web site.

  • Summary of how to install and use the thread example.

  • ThreadExample.java
