[Product Information]

Preventative Programming Techniques provides programmers with a

clear and intelligent approach to detecting, preventing, and

correcting the most common mistakes. It includes practical ways to

reduce problems that occur every day, and provides methods for

correcting problems that already exist. Using a medical metaphor,

each of the common problems is presented as an illness. Each

illness is then presented in a structured approach that includes a

basic description, common symptoms, prevention methods, cures, and

related illnesses to look for. The majority of the principles and

practices espoused are language independent and focus on

instructing programmers how to detect and avoid problems. It also

includes guidelines on determining when and how to refactor or

rewrite code.

Some of the major and minor illnesses found throughout programming,

include premature optimization, CAP (cut and paste) epidemic, NIH

(not invented here) syndrome, complexification, oversimplification,

docuphobia, and more. If you're a programmer, you've made these

mistakes or you've had to deal with code that has them in it. To

learn how to prevent and fix these problems, check out all of the

illnesses---you're sure to find insightful tips for your own

projects. Novice programmers will benefit greatly from reading

through each category of illness from start to finish, and

experienced programmers will benefit from the insightful tips and

anecdotes.

KEY FEATURES:

* Provides insightful guidelines for avoiding common programming

mistakes and writing cleaner, more efficient code

* Emphasizes early detection and resolution before the costs of

problems explode

* Covers all problems from a non-language specific approach,

providing examples in C++ and Java

* Teaches practical guidelines for detecting what may seem like

obvious mistakes that often go undetected until they cause serious

problems

* Includes a variety of tips and anecdotes that benefit all levels

of programmers

On the CD!

* A collection of open source and demonstration software,

including Cmake, CppUnit, Doc-o-Matic, Doxygen, Milestones,

Perforce, Ruby, Visual Assist, and Win CVS

* Full source code for many of the examples throughout the book in

both C++ and Java

SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

The source code is intended to be standard C++ and Java code. It

has been tested using Microsoft Visual Studio .net compiler for the

C++ source code and the Sun JDK 1.4 compiler for the Java code. The

software utilities provided require Windows 98, 2000, NT or XP

professional. Although most of the software demos work with Windows

98, to use the Microsoft Visual C++ .net project file you will need

Microsoft Visual C++ .net which requires NT, 2000, or XP. Some

programs may have additional requirements, so please refer to

specific programs for their information.
