Description:
Start with a detailed look at the core principles of today's computer languages, and the rationale for object-oriented technology. Review the strengths and weaknesses of these and other common elements of O-O development: entities and types; modules and imports; members and features; inheritance, generics, and templates. Take an objective look at how Java, C++ and Eiffel handle interfaces and access control; constructors, destructors, and casts; and how they behave at compile time and runtime. Most of all, understand how each of these elements impacts real-world programmer effectiveness -- for better, and for worse. Joyner has written a controversial book. But those who take it to heart will have a clear roadmap for building better programs -- and better languages.
