If you program in C++ you've been neglected. Test-driven development (TDD) is a modern software development practice that can dramatically reduce the number of defects in systems, produce more maintainable code, and give you the confidence to change your software to meet changing needs. But C++ programmers have been ignored by those promoting TDD--until now. In this book, Jeff Langr gives you hands-on lessons in the challenges and rewards of doing TDD in C++.
"Modern C++ Programming With Test-Driven Development," the only comprehensive treatment on TDD in C++ provides you with everything you need to know about TDD, and the challenges and benefits of implementing it in your C++ systems. Its many detailed code examples take you step-by-step from TDD basics to advanced concepts. As a veteran C++ programmer, you're already writing high-quality code, and you work hard to maintain code quality. It doesn't have to be that hard.
In this book, you'll learn:
how to use TDD to improve legacy C++ systems
how to identify and deal with troublesome system dependencies
how to do dependency injection, which is particularly tricky in C++
how to use testing tools for C++ that aid TDD
new C++11 features that facilitate TDD
As you grow in TDD mastery, you'll discover how to keep a massive C++ system from becoming a design mess over time, as well as particular C++ trouble spots to avoid. You'll find out how to prevent your tests from being a maintenance burden and how to think in TDD without giving up your hard-won C++ skills. Finally, you'll see how to grow and sustain TDD in your team.
Whether you're a complete unit-testing novice or an experienced tester, this book will lead you to mastery of test-driven development in C++.

C++ is one of the most important and influential programming languages for application development. It supports the modular, object- oriented and generic programming models and its flexibility has been one of the main reasons why it has been so successful. With the emergence of the Boost Libraries (www.boost.org) we see that C++ is brought to a new level, namely a set of reusable and modular template libraries that C++ developers can use in their applications. This book is dedicated to a number of Boost libraries for higher-order functions, data types and data structures, libraries for text and string processing, multi-threading, random number generation and more. We also discuss how Boost and design patterns are used to promote the flexibility of code. Each library is described in a step-by-step manner. Numerous examples are given to show the functionality of each library. The full source code is freely available to purchasers of the book. Coverage Includes Understanding and using 30 major Boost libraries. Learn about higher-order functions, data structures, memory management, multi-threading and more. Using Boost in new and existing applications. Integrating Boost and the Gang-Of-Four design patterns. Ready-to-run projects for Visual Studio. Appendices and exercises."

The Unified Process methodology for object-oriented component-based development has taken the information technology community by storm. This first volume in a four-book series addresses the Inception Phase, in which developers focus on the initial requirements for a system, determining its scope and organizing the project. These articles from "Software Development" magazine have been written by industry luminaries.

"Today's challenges" need "Today's solutions". The way this applies to real-word, it equally applies to programming world. To create solutions that meet today's expectations, one needs to use a modern language like Java. Learning Java can be challenging for anyone. This is where you would find this book immensely useful. It follows simple and easy narration style. It doesn't assume any programming background. It begins with the basics and steadily builds the pace so that the reader finds it easy to handle complex topics towards the end. Each chapter has been designed to create a deep and lasting impression on reader's mind. Object Oriented Programming has been covered in detail to give a strong foundation for Java programming. Well thought out & fully working example programs and carefully crafted exercises of this book, cover every aspect of Java programming.

For a variety of reasons, the MATLAB(r)-Java interface was never fully documented. This is really quite unfortunate: Java is one of the most widely used programming languages, having many times the number of programmers and programming resources as MATLAB. Also unfortunate is the popular claim that while MATLAB is a fine programming platform for prototyping, it is not suitable for real-world, modern-looking applications. Undocumented Secrets of MATLAB(r)-Java Programming aims to correct this misconception.

This book shows how using Java can significantly improve MATLAB program appearance and functionality, and that this can be done easily and even without any prior Java knowledge.

Readers are led step-by-step from simple to complex customizations. Code snippets, screenshots, and numerous online references are provided to enable the utilization of this book as both a sequential tutorial and as a random-access reference suited for immediate use. Java-savvy readers will find it easy to tailor code samples for their particular needs; for Java newcomers, an introduction to Java and numerous online references are provided.

This book demonstrates how

• The MATLAB programming environment relies on Java for numerous tasks, including networking, data-processing algorithms and graphical user-interface (GUI)
• We can use MATLAB for easy access to external Java functionality, either third-party or user-created
• Using Java, we can extensively customize the MATLAB environment and application GUI, enabling the creation of visually appealing and usable applications

Coming to grips with C++11 and C++14 is more than a matter of familiarizing yourself with the features they introduce (e.g., auto type declarations, move semantics, lambda expressions, and concurrency support). The challenge is learning to use those features effectively - so that your software is correct, efficient, maintainable, and portable. That's where this practical book comes in. It describes how to write truly great software using C++11 and C++14 - i.e. using modern C++. Topics include: The pros and cons of braced initialization, noexcept specifications, perfect forwarding, and smart pointer make functions The relationships among std::move, std::forward, rvalue references, and universal references Techniques for writing clear, correct, effective lambda expressions How std::atomic differs from volatile, how each should be used, and how they relate to C++'s concurrency API How best practices in "old" C++ programming (i.e., C++98) require revision for software development in modern C++ Effective Modern C++ follows the proven guideline-based, example-driven format of Scott Meyers' earlier books, but covers entirely new material.

Our industry is moving toward functional programming, but your object-oriented experience is still valuable. Scala combines the power of OO and functional programming, and Pragmatic Scala shows you how to work effectively with both.

Practical UML Statecharts in C/C++ Second Edition bridges the gap between high-level abstract concepts of the Unified Modeling Language (UML) and the actual programming aspects of modern hierarchical state machines (UML statecharts). The book describes a lightweight, open source, event-driven infrastructure, called QP that enables direct manual coding UML statecharts and concurrent event-driven applications in C or C++ without big tools. This book is presented in two parts. In Part I, you get a practical description of the relevant state machine concepts starting from traditional finite state automata to modern UML state machines followed by state machine coding techniques and state-machine design patterns, all illustrated with executable examples. In Part II, you find a detailed design study of a generic real-time framework indispensable for combining concurrent, event-driven state machines into robust applications. Part II begins with a clear explanation of the key event-driven programming concepts such as inversion of control ("Hollywood Principle"), blocking versus non-blocking code, run-to-completion (RTC) execution semantics, the importance of event queues, dealing with time, and the role of state machines to maintain the context from one event to the next. This background is designed to help software developers in making the transition from the traditional sequential to the modern event-driven programming, which can be one of the trickiest paradigm shifts. The lightweight QP event-driven infrastructure goes several steps beyond the traditional real-time operating system (RTOS). In the simplest configuration, QP runs on bare-metal microprocessor, microcontroller, or DSP completely replacing the RTOS. QP can also work with almost any OS/RTOS to take advantage of the existing device drivers, communication stacks, and other middleware. The accompanying website to this book contains complete open source code for QP, ports to popular processors and operating systems, including 80x86, ARM Cortex-M3, MSP430, and Linux, as well as all examples described in the book.

UML, the Universal Modeling Language, was the first programming language designed to fulfill the requirement for "universality." However, it is a software-specific language, and does not support the needs of engineers designing from the broader systems-based perspective. Therefore, SysML was created. It has been steadily gaining popularity, and many companies, especially in the heavily-regulated Defense, Automotive, Aerospace, Medical Device and Telecomms industries, are already using SysML, or are plannning to switch over to it in the near future.
However, little information is currently available on the market regarding SysML. Its use is just on the crest of becoming a widespread phenomenon, and so thousands of software engineers are now beginning to look for training and resources. This book will serve as the one-stop, definitive guide that provide an introduction to SysML, and instruction on how to implement it, for all these new users.
*SysML is the latest emerging programming language--250,000 estimated software systems engineers are using it in the US alone
*The first available book on SysML in English
*Insider information The author is a member of the SysML working group and has written sections of the specification
*Special focus comparing SysML and UML, and explaining how both can work together

There has been an increasing demand in GIS for systems that support historical data: time-series data as well as mobility information. From a modelling perspective, there are advantages in integrating object-oriented analysis and design to databases as well as to visualisation capabilities of GIS. Object-Oriented Design for Temporal GIS explores the major components of the object-oriented analysis and design methods, how they can be used for modelling spatio-temporal data, and how these components are developed and maintained within a GIS. It also offers practical guidance to object-oriented methods by demonstrating the feasibility of applying such methods to issues involved in handling spatio-temporal data. The author demonstrates how this knowledge might be used in a wide range of applications such as political boundary record maintenance (historical data), disease incidence rate analysis in epidemics (diffusion rate), and environmental studies of climate change (time-series data). This understanding contributes to the development of theory in GIS and improves the design of GIS to support the modelling of semantics, space and time elements of geographical information.

Essential concepts of programming language design and implementation are explained and illustrated in the context of the object-oriented programming language (OOPL) paradigm. Written with the upper-level undergraduate student in mind, the text begins with an introductory chapter that summarizes the essential features of an OOPL, then widens the discussion to categorize the other major paradigms, introduce the important issues, and define the essential terms. After a brief second chapter on event-driven programming (EDP), subsequent chapters are built around case studies in each of the languages Smalltalk, C++, Java, C#, and Python. Included in each case study is a discussion of the accompanying libraries, including the essential container classes. For each language, one important event-driven library is singled out and studied. Sufficient information is given so that students can complete an event-driven project in any of the given languages. After completing the course the student should have a solid set of skills in each language the instructor chooses to cover, a comprehensive overview of how these languages relate to each other, and an appreciation of the major issues in OOPL design. Key Features: Provides essential coverage of Smalltalk origins, syntax, and semantics, a valuable asset for students wanting to understand the hybrid Objective C language Provides detailed case studies of Smalltalk, Java, C++, C#, and Python and features a side-by-side development of the Java and C++ languages--highlighting their similarities and differences Sets the discussion in a historical framework, tracing the roots of the OOPLs back to Simula 67. Provides broad-based coverage of all languages, imparting essential skills as well as an appreciation for each language's design philosophy Includes chapter summary, review questions, chapter exercises, an appendix with event-driven projects, and instructor resources

Data-Oriented Programming teaches you to design and implement software using the data-oriented programming paradigm. In it, you'll learn author Yehonathan Sharvit's unique approach to DOP that he has developed over a decade of experience. Every chapter contains a new light bulb moment that will change the way you think about programming. As you read, you'll build a library management system using the DOP paradigm. You'll design data models for business entities, manipulate immutable data collections, and write unit tests for data-oriented systems. About the Technology Data-oriented programming is an exciting new paradigm that eliminates the usual complexity caused by combining data and code into objects and classes. In DOP, you maintain application data in persistent generic data structures separated from the program's code. You use general-purpose functions to manipulate the data without mutating it. This approach rids your applications of state-related bugs and makes your code much easier to understand and maintain.

NEW LANGUAGE VISUALIZES PROGRAM ABSTRACTIONS CLEARLY AND PRECISELY

Popular software modelling notations visualize implementation minutiae but fail to scale, to capture design abstractions, and to deliver effective tool support. Tailored to overcome these limitations, Codecharts can elegantly model roadmaps and blueprints for Java, C++, and C# programs of any size clearly, precisely, and at any level of abstraction. More practically, significant productivity gains for programmers using tools supporting Codecharts have been demonstrated in controlled experiments.

Hundreds of figures and examples in this book illustrate how Codecharts are used to:

Visualize the building-blocks of object-oriented design

Create bird's-eye roadmaps of large programs with minimal symbols and no clutter

Model blueprints of patterns, frameworks, and other design decisions

Be exactly sure what diagrams claim about programs and reason rigorously about them

Tools supporting Codecharts are also shown here to:

Recover design from plain Java and visualize the program's roadmap

Verify conformance to design decision with a click of a button

This classroom-tested book includes two main parts:

Practice (Part I) offers experienced programmers, software designers and software engineering students practical tools for representing and communicating object-oriented design. It demonstrates how to model programs, patterns, libraries, and frameworks using examples from JDK, Java 3D, JUnit, JDOM, Enterprise JavaBeans, and the Composite, Iterator, Factory Method, Abstract Factory, and Proxy design patterns.

Theory (Part II) offers a mathematical foundation for Codecharts to graduate students and researchers studying software design, modelling, specification, and verification. It defines a formal semantics and a "satisfies" relation for design verification, and uses them to reason about the relations between patterns and programs (e.g., "java.awt implements Composite" and "Factory Method is an abstraction of Iterator").

Part of a new four-volume series presenting best practices using UP to develop object-oriented, component-based software, this book examines the second UP phase--elaboration--focusing on defining, validating, and baselining the architecture for a system. Illustrations throughout.

C++ is now established as one of the leading industry programming languages for object-oriented software development. Its advantages over other languages include speed and flexibility. It is used as the base for many commercial software products and for performance solutions to complex problems. Not often taught as the primary programming language, students are frequently expected to pick up the language for themselves. This book is an ideal student self-learning guide.

As a step-by-step tutorial, this book teaches all language features and explains their practical usage. Intuitive examples are used that are neither too complex to distract, nor oversimplified. A key concept in C++ is programming with templates, which can help to program generic solutions - for example implementing polymorphism. Nicolai Josuttis teaches how to combine templates with object-oriented programming to produce the power of modern C++ development for high performance programs. It is a book that goes well beyond the basics.

A supplementary website, including source code, can be found at www.josuttis.com/cppbook

Features:

• comprehensive, detailed, readable, practical and up-to-date

• teaches how to get the power from C++, using the current ANSI language standard and programming mode

• specific hints help C and Java programmers switch and compare languages.

• website provides more examples and links to useful online resources.

This innovative book recognizes the need within the object-oriented community for a book that goes beyond the tools and techniques of the typical methodology book. In Analysis Patterns: Reusable Object Models, Martin Fowler focuses on the end result of object-oriented analysis and design-the models themselves. He shares with you his wealth of object modeling experience and his keen eye for identifying repeating problems and transforming them into reusable models. Analysis Patterns provides a catalogue of patterns that have emerged in a wide range of domains including trading, measurement, accounting and organizational relationships. Recognizing that conceptual patterns cannot exist in isolation, the author also presents a series of "support patterns" that discuss how to turn conceptual models into software that in turn fits into an architecture for a large information system. Included in each pattern is the reasoning behind their design, rules for when they should and should not be used, and tips for implementation. The examples presented in this book comprise a cookbook of useful models and insight into the skill of reuse that will improve analysis, modeling and implementation.
