Book excerpt: 'Object-oriented' has become one of the important buzzwords in computer science, but as yet there is no clear consensus on 'what' is object-oriented programming. This book addresses the concepts behind the buzzword, and has four goals. The first is to provide the reader with a perspective on concepts that have been in development in a diverse set of fields, including artificial intelligence, database theory, programming languages, and compiler theory which form the core of the object paradigm. Second, the text presents an overview of object-oriented databases, examples of their use, and a comparison of strengths and weaknesses. Third, real-world examples are shown to illustrate how they are mapped onto an object-oriented framework. Finally, the programming language C++ has been adopted by programmers of object-oriented databases, so there is an overview of its power and limitations, and two different approaches to making a database out of C++ are examined.
