Curated list of academic writings on object-oriented programming
This is a curated list of academic (!) books and papers on object-oriented programming, which promote "object thinking." We are looking for papers that go along or disagree with the following hypothesises from Elegant Objects book series (in order of importance):
- Objects are not data containers
- Getters and setters are evil
- Static methods are evil
- Objects must be immutable
- Implementation inheritance is evil
- NULL is evil
- Constructors must be code free
- Type casting (and reflection) is evil
- Java annotations are evil
- Interfaces must be small
William R. Cook. Object-oriented programming versus abstract data types. Foundations of Object-Oriented Languages: REX School/Workshop Noordwijkerhout, 1990, Springer.
This tutorial collects and elaborates arguments for distinguishing between object-oriented programming and abstract data types.
