Hi Chaps,
I'm looking for someone to give me a rough rundown of some of the OOP terms that I keep seeing thrown around and yet still baffle me. I've got some elements of my application that I've been handed by other people, and they refer to them as 'Facades' or 'Utilities' or 'Services' what are the definitions of those? And how should they be applied within an application. I've got a good grasp of the other terns like Factory, Bean, DAO, Gateway. I'm also curious as to what a TO class is, I've never written one, is that even a class? Or a bean? Are classes and beans the same thing? :-D I'd also be keen to learn about any other types of elements I'm likely to stumble across, I just made the mistake of reading some documentation on AOP :-o now my brain really is fried ;-) I know that OOP development within CF isn't particularly well documented, in as much that I can't go and buy a book from Amazon on the local WHSmith, but I'd be interested to take any recommendations on more general perhaps java based OOP, MVC and AOP related books that would be worth me reading.
