Directions
For this assignment, you will select either the Cat or the Dog Java class from the UML diagram. Open the Virtual Lab (Apporto) by clicking the link in the Virtual Lab Access module. Then open your Eclipse IDE and create a new class. View the Eclipse IDE Tutorial video in the Supporting Materials section if you need help creating a class in Eclipse.
Before you begin, review the following UML class diagram. Pay attention to each class's attributes and behaviors. As a reminder, though the diagram illustrates an inheritance relationship between the classes, the class you choose to implement does not have to inherit from the Pet class for this assignment. You will learn more about implementing inheritance in later modules.
\table[[],[\table[[- petType],[- petName],[- petAge],[- dogSpaces],[- catSpaces],[- daysStay],[- amountDue]]],[\table[[+ Pet()],[+ getPetType()],[+ setPetType()],[+ getPetName()],[+ setPetName()],[+ getPetAge()],[+ setPetAge()],[+ getDogSpaces()],[+ setDogSpaces()],[+ getCatSpaces()],[+ setCatSpaces()]]]]\table[[Dog],[- dogSpaceNumber],[- dogWeight],[- grooming]]
Cat
catSpaceNumber
Cat()
getCatSpaceNumber()
setCatSpaceNumber()
Next, you will implement either the Cat or Dog Java class. Your class must meet all the specifications from the UML class diagram. Include the following items in your Cat or Dog class:
A. All attributes (variables) with appropriate data types
i. Note that the types are not specified in this UML class diagram. You must consider the most appropriate data type for each attribute.
B. At least one constructor method that initializes values for all attributes
i. The constructor method is a special method that is run anytime an object is created from a class. The constructor method shares the name of the class it is found in.
C. Accessors and mutators for all attributes
i. Each attribute should have a corresponding accessor ("getter") and mutator ("setter") method. These methods are indicated in the class diagram.
D. In-line comments and appropriate white space, according to the style guidelines you have learned so far in the course
