N1934E - Object-Oriented Programming With C++ on OS/2

Abstract:
This intensive course effectively combines a thorough introduction to the principles and benefits of object technology with in-depth training in C++ programming and design. You will learn targeted techniques for implementing object technology through the C++ programming language. You will use tools that are part of the IBM VisualAge for C++ product to enhance your effectiveness as a C++ developer. At the end of this class, you will have designed and developed object-oriented C++ applications, and be positioned to expand your new C++ expertise through participation in on-the-job projects, as well as Advanced C++ Programming (N1941E). This course teaches you the principles of object-oriented (OO) programming and design using the C++ language. You will receive extensive experience through design workshops and hands-on programming labs using IBM VisualAge for C++.

Length
4.5 days

What You Will Learn:
After completing this course, you should be able to:
 * Understand the benefits of object-oriented programming
 * Apply object-oriented programming principles
 * Design OO applications, using objects, classes, inheritance, and polymorphism
 * Implement OO programs, using C++ and the VisualAge C++ for OS/2 compiler
 * Debug a C++ program using the VisualAge C++ debugger
 * Use objects with C++ instead of C++ as just an enhanced version of C

Topics:

 * OO principles
 * Objects, classes, inheritance
 * Designing with objects (Inheritance vs Aggregation)
 * Polymorphism
 * Abstract Classes
 * Multiple inheritance
 * Introduction to OO Language Implementation
 * The C++ language
 * Private, protected, and public keywords
 * Inheritance and Aggregation in C++
 * Operator overloading
 * Dynamic binding (virtual functions in C++)
 * Abstract Base Classes (pure virtual functions)
 * Copying Objects
 * Templates
 * Exception handling

Audience:
Technical professionals who want a practical introduction to object-oriented programming and design. This course is appropriate for programmers planning to use C++ as their OO language.

Prerequisites:
Before taking this course, you should have extensive C programming language experience and could be obtained from:
 * Introduction to C Programming on the PC (K3604E)
 * Advanced C Programming on the PC (K3605E)
 * An Introduction to C as a Foundation for C++ on OS/2 (N1938E)

NOTE: This course will not review the C language. This course does NOT cover the Visual Application Builder part of the VisualAge C++ for OS/2 product. That is taught in a separate course VisualAge C++: Using the Visual Application Builder (N1880E).
