Special Note The yuml.me site is experiencing problems. Due dates for class diagrams are extended. Other parts of tag deadlines are not extended.

Additional Special Note The yuml.me site is back up. I will be lenient on the class diagrams for Project 2, but get the Class Diagram exercise completed so I can give you feedback.

After Class

• Project 2 See revised due dates
• Project 2 Pull request for starting XMLParser files

Announcements

• Project 1 Issues in GitHub, scores in Brightspace
  • Issues for v1d
  • Issues for v1e

  • v1e Issue: Code assumes unique attribute and value

    The code that counts the number of line comments assumes that the comment element is the only element that has the form: <... type="line">

    While not verified, it is also probably the case that the code for counting the number of literal strings has the same limitation.

    These elements do have these forms. But assuming this is true for all other srcML elements, current or future, is an assumption that is never stated or described. The choice is to describe in excruciating detail why this is the case, how someone could detect it, and what to do with their data when this happens. This requires forms that have to go to legal and be filled out in triplicate.

    Another choice is to fix the problem.

    I will not take points off for this issue. However, I expect it to be fixed:

    • It is easy to make assumptions about our input data for programming ease or program optimization
    • All assumptions must be clearly defined
    • A better choice is to remove the assumption
    • It is often easier (and better) to remove the assumption than it is to work around it
    • So if you can remove the assumption without much effort, it will pay to do so
    • There are exceptions as dealing with uncommon usages may delay delivery for common usages
• Project 2 See Due Dates

• XML Parsing Concerns && xml_parser.hpp XML parsing concerns belong in xml_parser.cpp. The role of xml_parser.hpp is not to support xml_parser.cpp, but to allow the use of the functions in xml_parser.cpp to be called by external code, e.g., srcfacts.cpp.

  XML concepts belong in xml_parser.hpp. XML parsing details belong in xml_parser.cpp.

• Guide: Parsing Concerns Tool to visualize concerns in srcfacts.cpp

• Doxygen Function/Method Comments In the Utilities assignment today, the given example is

  The first line of text is the brief description. Note the blank line after it before the param. That is the style used by the Doxygen documentation, and many style guides. In fact, the @param part requires a blank line between it and the brief description.

• Exercise 33: Sequence Diagram Scores and feedback in Brightspace.

Agenda

• Exercise 34: Sequence Diagram II Based on my feedback, fix your sequence diagram from Exercise 33: Sequence Diagram

  • If you received a 10/10 on Exercise 33, no work is needed
  • If you did not do Exercise 33, you have a 0 on this exercise
  • If you got any other score, then fix the diagram
  • If you don't fix the diagram, you get a 0

  Use the same repository.

• Notes: Naming Now the rest
• Exercise 35: Naming Crossword
• Notes: UML Class Diagrams
• Exercise 36: UML Class Diagrams Crossword

• Exercise 37: Create a UML Class Diagram

  Create a UML Class Diagram at yuml.me for the class diagram on the right.

  Compose your class diagram at yuml.me. The resulting contents of the box on yuml.me will go into the file ClassDiagram.txt in the GitHub Classroom Repository (link in Brightspace). You should be able to copy the contents of the file ClassDiagram.txt and paste it into the editor at yuml.me and see the diagram on the right.

  Your final result should look exactly like the image shown here. The style used for the image is Boring, instead of the default Scruffy or Plain.

  Make sure to commit after each of the following parts:

  • Name of the class
  • Attributes
  • Operations

  Note that yuml.me can be temperamental. Add iteratively and carefully. Commit often, as you might find yourself breaking your previously working diagram.

  Note Due date extended. Due by 3:30 pm on Wed Feb 25
