Library System

Thread view: 
SteveF - 08 Sep 2004 12:15 GMT
Hi,

I'm trying to build a system that manages a book library. I've
identified the analysis classes:
LibraryMember
BookTitle
BookCopy
Reservation
Loan

I'm confused about where some of the behaviour goes however. Which
class should searchForTitle be implemented? It doesn't seem to sit
anywhere. What's the rule for assigning behaviour? How do you know
where it goes?

Any help would be useful

Thanks

'Catalog' or.. 'BookCatalog' (whichever
name suits you better).

> ..What's the rule for assigning behaviour?

Ehhh?  Could you rephrase that?
I do not quite understand.

I think what Steve was trying to ask was "How do I determine which
functionality goes into what class?".

Correct. Am I asking an impossible question?
