Thanks salvatore for a very clear presentation of machii. Regarding: "machii does not need a wireframe (fusebuilder adalon etc.)"
Wireframing is an important part of the FuseBox Lifecycle Process (FLiP) design methodology and is used to gather requirements from the user as well as let the user get a feel for the system through usage. UML tools can do something similar [Use Cases, Constraint Diagrams, System Modes Model, etc) to represent the requirements of the user but are not really great for user-centered design. So 1. What design methodology(s) would be recommeded for the machii life cycle. 2. Is only FuseBox - well FLiP - user-centered? I look forward to any responses, Sam -----Original Message----- From: ing. fusto [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 02 April 2004 15:04 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [ cf-dev ] FuseBox hello, i do not know fusebox 4 very well, but i know that it's approach is procedural: when developing, you must follow a cascade approach; machii allows a oop approach to the problem and then you can use an successive iteraction in analisys-development system, i.e. you can in every phase turn back and change anything; it is really simple change specifics and/or add part never thoght before, as every part is uncoupled (yes fb4 permits uncoupling ad MVC, but these are natural in machii: uncoupling is not only separate model presentation logic, but also to separate application actors fron each oter and from application context; it also permits or forces to write high-coesion object: an object has to do 1 thing) machii does not need a wireframe (fusebuilder adalon etc.): hope this is usefull best regards salvatore ----- Original Message ----- From: "Sam Westlake" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, April 02, 2004 12:24 PM Subject: RE: [ cf-dev ] FuseBox > I have looked at mach-ii and it seems to offer all the benefits of OOP, as > you say salvatore. > > I have already built a few apps in FB 4 and am wondering if instead of > carrying on down this route I should try mach-ii instead?
