If you haven't got it, get it... it's funny and although I have only
been able to flick through it at the moment.
It's done a lot more to help me get my head round OO stuff than getting
Core Servlets and JavaServer Pages (JSP) Book I tried a year ago (good
book, bit above my head tho)

Deanna, one thing I have found helpful in thinking more in OO style
terms with CFMX is the Mach-II framework, which evolved around the OO
concepts afforded by CFMX. There is a good insight in this article by
Sean Corfield, which analyzes a sample app created to demonstrate
Mach-II.

Subject: SOT: OO Design
Hi Folks,
I'm trying to get my head around OO design for CF and I have a ton of
questions, of course. I'll try to keep them limited, as they're sort of
off-topic (though not entirely, because whatever I have to design I have
to build in CF).
Here's my first basic question:
When you're designing an object that includes a multiple has-a type
relationship, do you typically build the objects such that their is an
intermediate "collection" type object? For example, I'm working on a
project management system. It involves tasks. Tasks can have 0 to many
"consumables" associated with them.
Do I have one object "Task" and one object "Consumable" with the
consumable object having both a "getOne(consumableID)" and a
"getAll(taskID)" method? Or, do I have an intermediate "ConsumableList"
object that takes a taskID and gets all the consumables associated with
that task by calling a method in the Consumable object.
Does that make sense?
Thanks.
-Deanna
