Recap Inheritance
Derived
class inherits all the characteristics of the base class inherited characteristics, derived class may have its own unique characteristics benefit of inheritance is reuse

Generalization
In
OO models, some classes may have common characteristics extract these features into a new class and inherit original classes from this new class concept is known as Generalization
We
This
Example Generalization
Line
color vertices length move setColor getLength
Circle
color vertices radius move setColor computeArea
Triangle
color vertices angle move setColor computeArea
Shape
color vertices move setColor
Circle

Sub-typing & Specialization

We
want to add a new class to an existing model an existing class that already implements some of the desired state and behaviour the new class from this class and add unique behaviour to the new class
Find
Inherit
Sub-typing (Extension)
Sub-typing
means that derived class is behaviourally compatible with the base class compatible means that base class can be replaced by the derived class
Behaviourally
Person
name age gender eats walks
Example Sub-typing (Extension)
Student
program studyYear study takeExam
Shape
color vertices setColor move
Example Sub-typing (Extension)
Circle
radius computeCF computeArea
Specialization (Restriction)
Specialization
means that derived class is behaviourally incompatible with the base class incompatible means that base class cant always be replaced by the derived class
Behaviourally
Example Specialization (Restriction)

Person
age : [0..100] setAge( a )
age = a
Adult
age : [18..100] setAge( a )
If age < 18 then error else age = a
Example Specialization (Restriction)

IntegerSet
add( elem ) add element to the set
NaturalSet
add( elem )
If elem < 1 then error else add element to the set
Overriding
A
class may need to override the default behaviour provided by its base class for overriding
Reasons
Provide behaviour specific to a derived class Extend the default behaviour Restrict the default behaviour Improve performance
Example Specific Behaviour

Shape
color vertices draw move setColor
Circle
radius draw computeArea
Triangle Line
length draw angle draw computeArea
Example Extension
Window
width height open close draw
DialogBox
controls enable draw
1- Invoke Windows draw 2- draw the dialog box
Example Restriction
IntegerSet
add( elem ) Add element to the set
If elem < 1 then NaturalSet give error else add( elem ) Add element to the set http://ecomputernotes.com
Example Improve Performance

Shape
Class
Circle overrides rotate operation of class Shape with a Null operation.
color coord draw rotate setColor
Circle
radius draw rotate
Abstract Classes
An
abstract class implements an abstract concept Main purpose is to be inherited by other classes Cant be instantiated Promotes reuse
Example Abstract Classes

Person
name age gender eat walk
Student
Here,
Teacher
Doctor
Person is an abstract class
Example Abstract Classes

Vehicle
color model accelerate applyBrakes
Car
Here,
Truck Bus
Vehicle is an abstract class
Concrete Classes
A
concrete class implements a concrete concept purpose is to be instantiated
Main
Provides
implementation details specific to the domain context
Example Concrete Classes

Person
Student
program studyYear study heldExam
Teacher
Doctor
Here,
Student, Teacher and Doctor are concrete classes
Example Concrete Classes

Vehicle
Car
Bus
Truck
capacity load unload
Here, Car, Bus and Truck are concrete classes
