UTA: CSE 1325 - Object-Oriented Programming

Summary

This repository will detail my work and documentation for UTA's CSE 1325 (OOP) course using the C++ language.

The first three directories (P02, P03, P04, P10) will consist of stand-alone programs explaining key OOP concepts covered early on in the course, consisting (but not limited to):

• P02/ -> Encapsulation
• P03/ -> Operator Overloading
• P04/ -> Aggregate/Composite Classes
• P05/ -> Threading

The following directory, indexed as SMART, will be an accumulation of a single program, further covering some crucial lessons pertaining to OOP while also examining the gtkmm library for GUI development. This directory will consist of the following sub-directories, serving as benchmarks for the accumulating GUI product (as seen in SMART/P09/):

• P05/
• P06/
• P07/
• P08/
• P09/

Notes

For each project directory, a series of notes and considerations for the accompanying program will be documented, along with UML class diagrams designed by the professor. UML class diagrams are followed for the majority of this repo; any changes that are made will be documented accordingly.

Each directory will have the original assignment describing the requirements and notes necessary to construct the program. Most assignment descriptions will cover a "full-credit", "bonus", and "extreme-bonus" implementation, each of which will be implemented as this repo is more developed.

Makefiles

A template for a standard Makefile used in this repo has the following layout:

CXXFLAGS = --std=c++20

all: exe1 exe2

exe1: main1.o class1.o *.h
	$(CXX) $(CXXFLAGS) main1.o class1.o -o exe1

exe2: main2.o class2.o *.h
	$(CXX) $(CXXFLAGS) main2.o class2.o -o exe2

main1.o: main1.cpp *.h
	$(CXX) $(CXXFLAGS) -c main1.cpp -o main1.o

class1.o: class1.cpp *.h
	$(CXX) $(CXXFLAGS) -c class1.cpp -o class1.o

main2.o: main2.cpp *.h
	$(CXX) $(CXXFLAGS) -c main2.cpp -o main2.o

class2.o: class2.cpp *.h
	$(CXX) $(CXXFLAGS) -c class2.cpp -o class2.o

clean:
	rm -f *.o *.gch *~ a.out exe1 exe2

Each project and implementation will be built using a Makefile. In order to build the project, run the following command inside the corresponding directory:

make #builds the project and produces an executable

In the scenario that the project can produce more than one executable, the executable must be specified at the end of the 'make' command. To produce all executables at once, run the following command:

make all #builds the project and produces all corresponding executables

To clean the directory of any executables or object files (from compiling and linking), run the following command:

make clean #removes any extra files resulting from compilation or linkage of src files
