For this assignment you will create a set of simple classes that model a system that maintains a collection of library assets. The system utilizes abstract classes and polymorphism to enable an asset manager to keep track of books and periodicals as a single collection. Books are able to be checked out whereas periodicals cannot.
In addition to the classes described below, you will also need to provide a test driver - a separate class with a main() - to exercise the functionality of your system.
You will need to implement the following classes based on the description of their attributes and operations:
- Asset - this class must be declared abstract, attributes are all private
- name - the name of the asset
- id - the unique id of the asset
- isAvailable - a flag to indicate whether the asset is currently in the library
- a constructor that requires the creator to supply the id of the asset and appropriately initializes an object
- public operations to set and get the asset's name
- public operation to get the asset's id
- protected operation to get whether or not the asset is in the library
- public, abstract operation to check out the asset, returns a boolean
- public, abstract operation to check in the asset, returns a boolean
- Book - this class is a subclass of Asset
- authors - a collection (array) of the names the books authors
- authorCount - the number of authors currently in the collection
- a constructor that requires the creator to supply the id of the asset and appropriately initializes an object
- public operations to add an author to the collection of authors and obtain the collection (array) of authors
- an implementation of the the check out operation
- if the asset is in the library, it is made unavailable and the operation returns true
- if the asset is not in the library the operation returns false
- an implementation of the the check out operation
- if the asset is not the library, it is made available and the operation returns true
- if the asset is already in the library the operation returns false
- an override of toString() which returns a description of the book of the format
- "
