Review
Last week we looked at how to use Eclipse and an introduction to using Java. Try answering the
following question about the Java main() method.

Q1: What do each of the keywords of the following method signature mean?
public static void main(String[] args) { … }

public This method is accessible to the Class, Package, Subclass and


anywhere this package is used (AKA “World”).

static This member belongs to the class and not the instance
(object). It means that only one instance of a static field
exists even if you create a million instances of the class or you
don't create any. It will be shared by all instances.

void This method does not return any value.

String[] args An array of String objects representing the command-line


arguments this application received when it was run.

Part A – Installing & using ArgoUML
ArgoUML is a diagramming tool designed for creating and modifying UML diagrams. Its use is
required by your first assignment in CS230.

 Step 1: Go to http://argouml-downloads.tigris.org/argouml-0.34/
 Step 2: Download ArgoUML-0.34.zip - Binary distribution (.zip format).
 Step 3: Save it somewhere on your H:\ drive (or, alternatively your home computer or USB
memory drive)
 Step 4: Unzip the .zip file.
 Step 5: Inside the extracted directory, open argouml.jar
o ArgoUML should now launch
 Step 6: Download umlexamples.zargo from the course assignment page and save it as above
 Step 7: (In ArgoUML) use File > Open Project to open the above .zargo file.

You should now see something like this:

Aggregation implies a relationship where the child can exist independently of the
parent. Example: Class (parent) and Student (child). Delete the Class and the Students
still exist.
Composition implies a relationship where the child cannot exist independent of the
parent. Example: House (parent) and Room (child). Rooms don't exist separate to a
House.
The above two are forms of containment (hence the parent-child relationships).
Dependency s a weaker form of relationship and in code terms indicates that a class
uses another by parameter or return type.
Dependency is a form of association.

Part B - Class Diagrams


 Step 1: In ArgoUML go to Create > New Class Diagram
o You should be presented with a blank canvas.
 Optional Step 2: In the properties pane, you can rename your diagram by modifying the
Name field illustrated below.

How to use the Class Diagram Designer

Task 1:
Now that you have ArgoUML installed and a brief overview of its features, you now have the
opportunity to practice. Use the above tools to draw the following Class Diagram.

Outline:
A local pet store has contracted you to design a system to keep track of their stock, orders and
customers. Before you start work on any code, they want to see what your design looks like. Draw a
simple UML Class Diagram that conveys the following basic concepts.

 An “Order” class to keep track of each order a customer makes. It needs to have (at
minimum) the properties of “date”, “price”, “customer”, and “animals” that were sold.

 An “Item” class that has a properties “type”, “price” and “quantity” for items like Toys,
birdcages and fishtanks.
 An “Animal” class that extends (or generalises) “Item”, to keep track of each animal in their
stock. An animal needs the further properties of “breed” and “isFed”. It also needs the
member (operation) of “Feed()”
 A “Customer” class to keep track of each customer, with the properties “name” and
“address”.

Think about the types the following variables would need to have if they were implemented as a
class. The following are some type suggestions: float, boolean, String, Date.

Part C – Use-Case Diagrams
 Step 1: using ArgoUML go to Create > New Use Case Diagram

Task 2:
For the example described above in part B, draw a use-case diagram to represent the following cases:

 A customer examining/petting an animal.


 A customer purchasing an animal.
 A staff member feeding the animals.
