hey, I currently have an inventory control system to design and implement. I am only familiar with structured analysis techniques. I prefer using java as my programming language, >> Why do you prefer java as your PL!
but people told me in order to use java i have to perform an Object-Oriented Analysis for the system. >> Well it is not an absolute necessity, but >> applying structured analysis and design can cause >> an impedance mismatch, although you can pretty much >> carry out your requirements specification thing using >> whatever techniques you want and apply some light weight >> OOAD method to drive the design and implementation from >> there on...
Can't i use structured analysis to find my tables and then build the application in java to handle those tables? >> Yes you can, java does not enforce any restrictions >> on the kind of analysis that you carry out! ;-) >> Also note that, OOAD methods are more above behaviour >> rather then finding tables, so you will still need to do >> something about associating roles and behaviour to your >> objects...infact, finding tables is a side-effect of >> this activity!
My second question is if i use OO analysis and java can i use Microsoft Access for my DBMS? Is there a way of mapping the objects to an access database? >> Yes you can. you can use OR mapping tools from apache >> or elsewhere!
cheers, vivek
