Object Oriented Programming

About

Personal repo for C++ Object Oriented Programming Concepts

Topics

Pre Midterm

• Input/Output
• File streams and string streams
• C++ String Operations
• Default Function Parameters
• Function Overloading
• References (rvalues and l values)
• Pass by value and pass by reference
• Dynamic Memory
• Operator overloading

C++/Intro to OOP

• Preprocessor directives (processed by the preprocessor before actual compilation - begin with the # symbol)

• Separate compilation and include guards?

• Classes

• Constructor

• Object Creation (MIL, implict conversion)

• Big 5

• Destructor

• Copy constructor

• copy assignment operator

• Copy/Move Elision

• Visibility (public & private), class keyword vs struct

• Encapsulation

• Iterators (auto type, range based loops)

Post Midterm

• Inheritance
• 3 Access Levels (public, private, protected)
• Dynamic Dispatch/Polymorphism
• Virutal Methods vs Pure Virutal Methods
• Abstract/Concrete Classes
• Partial assignment/Mixed Assignment/Polymorphic Assignment

UML

• fields
• has-a
• owns-a

Design Patterns

• observer pattern
• decorator pattern
• factory method pattern
• template method pattern
• iterator pattern

Idioms

• RAII
• NVI
• pImpl (used in exception safety)
• copy and swap

Standard Template Library

• Vector and common vector functions
• Vector Iterator/Reverse Iterator
• Map and common map functions
• Iterate through map

Casting

• static_cast
• dynamic_cast
• reinterpret_cast
• const_cast

VTables and virtual inheritance

Exception Safety, throw, catch

• basic
• strong
• no throw

Coupling, Cohesion
