Contents

The course covers various aspects of component-based software development:

a minimal object-oriented language: Oberon
advanced object-oriented concepts: interobject consistency, object reentrance, type checking, independent extensibility, covariance, contravariance, invariance, safety by construction, multiple inheritance, fragile base class problem, events and messages, etc.
terminology: objects versus components, module, software architecture, reuse, frameworks, plug-in architectures, etc.
component standards, in particular, JavaBeans, .NET, Web Services
outlook: interface theory

In the hands-on exercises students will reuse components, develop components and adapt/extend components.
