Murach's C++ 2008
How to create and use classes
This chapter shows you how to create your own C++ classes
that include fields, properties, methods, constructors, and
static methods. While many competing books illustrate these
concepts with unrealistic objects such as automobiles or animals,
this book uses real-world business objects such as products
and customers.
In fact, this chapter presents an application
that uses a Product class to create Product objects and a
ProductDB class that uses static methods to handle the application's
database access. That's the type of complete application that
you need to see if you want to understand object-oriented
programming in C++.
