  • «Control»
  • ...31 more annotations...
  • Control is a stereotyped class or object that is used to model flow of control or some coordination in behavior
  • usually describe some "business logic"
  • «Entity»
  • Entity is a stereotyped class or object that represents some information or data, usually but not necessarily persistent.
  • Features of a class are
  • attributes
  • operations
  • Static features are underlined
  • «Boundary»

  • Interface
  • An interface is a classifier that declares of a set of coherent public features and obligations
  • specifies a contract.
  • Data Type
  • A data type is a classifier - similar to a class - whose instances are
  • identified only by their value
  • typical use of data types would be to represent value types
  • «dataType»
  • Enumeration
  • An enumeration is a data type whose values are enumerated in the model as user-defined enumeration literals.
  • «enumeration».
  • Multiplicity
  • Multiplicity allows to specify cardinality (allowed number of instances) of described element
  • Visibility
  • UML has the following types of visibility: public package protected private
  • Package visibility is represented by '~' literal.

  • UML 2 Class Diagram Guidelines
  • 1.        General Guidelines
  • 2.        Class Style Guidelines
  • ...49 more annotations...
  • Use Common Terminology for Names
  • Prefer Complete Singular Nouns for Class Names
  • Name Operations with a Strong Verb
  • Name Attributes With a Domain-Based Noun
    • kuni katsuya
      kuni katsuya on 19 Dec 12
       
      don't just use the attribute's type with first character lower cased!!! argghhh!  (eg. instead of Node node, Node parent)
  • Do Not Model Scaffolding Code
  • Include an Ellipsis ( … ) At The End of Incomplete Lists
  • Develop Consistent Method Signatures
  • Avoid Stereotypes Implied By Language Naming Conventions
  • 3.        Interfaces
  • Name Interfaces According To Language Naming Conventions
    • kuni katsuya
      kuni katsuya on 19 Dec 12
       
      I+ is NOT an acceptable naming convention!  this is a very dumb, thoughtless, pointless convention originated by microsoft
    • kuni katsuya
      kuni katsuya on 19 Dec 12
  • Do Not Model the Operations and Attributes of an Interface in Your Classes
  • Consider an Interface to Be a Contract
  • 4.        Relationship Guidelines
  • Model Relationships Horizontally
  • Depict Similar Relationships Involving A Common Class As A Tree
  • Always Indicate the Multiplicity
  • reduce clutter in the diagram
  • Avoid a Multiplicity of “*”
  • Replace Relationships By Indicating Attribute Types
    • kuni katsuya
      kuni katsuya on 19 Dec 12
       
      if dependency relationships were drawn between every class and the types of it's attributes, the class diagram becomes cluttered very quickly this dependency is obvious if the type is indicated for each attribute
  • Do Not Model Every Single Dependency
    • kuni katsuya
      kuni katsuya on 19 Dec 12
       
      generalization of #7 what you show/don't show depends on the main concepts  you're trying to convey in any specific diagram
  • Write Concise Association Names In Active Voice
  • Indicate Directionality To Clarify An Association Name
  • Name Unidirectional Associations In The Same Direction
  • Indicate Role Names When Multiple Associations Between Two Classes Exist
  • Indicate Role Names on Recursive Associations
    • kuni katsuya
      kuni katsuya on 19 Dec 12
       
      eg. parent, child
  • Make Associations Bi-Directional Only When Collaboration Occurs In Both Directions
  • Question Multiplicities Involving Minimums And Maximums
    • kuni katsuya
      kuni katsuya on 19 Dec 12
       
      this just leads to stupid programming practices like hard-coding array sizes, making code more brittle
  • 6.        Inheritance Guidelines
  • “is a”
  • “is like” relationships
  • Apply the Sentence Rule For Inheritance
  • Place Subclasses Below Superclasses
  • A Subclass Should Inherit Everything
    • kuni katsuya
      kuni katsuya on 19 Dec 12
       
      if a subclass sets an attribute to null, implements a method returning null or throwing a NotImplementedException, it really isn't a subclass, or the superclass needs to be decomposed
  • 7.        Aggregation and Composition Guidelines
  • object is made up of other objects
  • aggregation
  • “is part of” relationships
  • whole-part relationship between two objects
  • Composition
  • stronger form of aggregation where the whole and parts have
  • coincident lifetimes, and it is very common for the whole to manage the lifecycle of its parts
  • Apply the Sentence Rule for Aggregation
  • Depict the Whole to the Left of the Part
  • Don’t Worry About Getting the Diamonds Right
  • associations, aggregation, composition, dependencies, inheritance, and realizations
  • line on a UML class diagram
  • defines a cohesive set of behaviors
  • Indicate Visibility Only On Design Models
  • Design Class Diagrams Should Reflect Language Naming Conventions

  • What is next after robustness diagrams? Robustness diagrams often act as bridge from use cases to other models.  For example, it is quite common to create sequence diagrams which represent the detailed design logic required to support the use case
  • Add an entity for each business concept
  • Add a use case whenever one is included in the scenario
  • Add a controller for activities that involve several other elements
  • Add a controller for each business rule
  • Add a controller to manage the overall process of the scenario being modeled
  • Add a boundary element for each major user interface element such as a screen or a report.

java Interface NamingConvention BestPractices

shared by kuni katsuya on 19 Dec 12 - No Cached
  • interfaces define
  • capabilities
    • kuni katsuya
      kuni katsuya on 19 Dec 12
       
      this is one sensible interface naming option, if the interface encapsulates a cohesive set of behaviors and yes, compared to blindly following the meaningless I+ convention, it requires some thought, but thinking of an appropriate name also forces you to (re)consider the interface's primary responsibility and how it fits into the overall design imho, a class diagram for a domain model should be almost fluently readable english
  • not types
  • ...16 more annotations...
  • Comparable
  • Runnable
  • Serializable
  • Sometimes an Adjective doesn't make sense, but I'd still generally be using interfaces to model behavior, actions, capabilities, properties, etc,... not types.
  • Also, If you were really only going to make one User and call it User then what's the point of also having an IUser interface?
    • kuni katsuya
      kuni katsuya on 19 Dec 12
       
      another anti-pattern... blindly create an interface for every class, even if there's only one implementation!! arrgghhhh! consider introducing an interface when there are 2-3 well-distinguished, concrete implementations required
  • if you are going to have a few different types of users that need to implement a common interface, what does appending an "I" to the interface save you in choosing names of the implementations?
  • prefer not to use a prefix on interfaces:
  • hurts readability.
  • interfaces names should be as short and pleasant as possible
  • Implementing classes should be uglier to discourage their use.
    • kuni katsuya
      kuni katsuya on 19 Dec 12
       
      but they don't *have* to be ugly, like BlahImpl for specialized implementations, use descriptive adjective-noun combos
  • Code using an instance of some type should never, ever care if that type is an interface or a class
  • exposing such a detail in the name of the type is pointless and harmful to understanding
  • several reasons Java does not generally use the IUser convention.
  • should not have to know whether the client is using an interface or an implementation class
  • Java naming convention prefers longer names with actual meanings to Hungarian-style prefixes
  • Interface naming in Java [closed]
  • kuni katsuya on 19 Dec 12

      dumbed down, feature parity implementation is just a list of idss allowed distribution (i believe) use existing legacy infrastructure? ultimate syndication system will depend on: - licensing - explicit list of syndication channels (much like legacy) - rule-based routing

  • Dimensions
  • Aspect ratio
    • kuni katsuya
      kuni katsuya on 19 Dec 12
       
      aspect ratio doesn't need to be stored in db as metadata, since it can be calculated cheaply based on the dimensions

      units: bytes
  • File name
    • kuni katsuya
      kuni katsuya on 19 Dec 12
       
      is this the original name of the file that was uploaded? if not, and it supposed to be the medlib file name, imho, should not be exposed. the medlib file name should be immaterial to the ecm user and generally, vfml should treat them as opaque to allow future changes without customer dependencies the only time an ecm user should care about a 'file name' is when they're uploading or downloading. but... once the file is uploaded, who cares what the original file name was? it will be recorded, but should be inconsequential to anything since it would never, ever be referred to again on download, (save as...) the original file name *could* be used, but any file name is just as good, since the downloader would also be given the option to rename the file
