On Thursday 25/9 it is time for a SNUG event (Skånsk .NET User Group). This time will feature a visit from the Dark Side in the form of Rickard Öberg who has been a Java developer since James Gosling wore shots. He will be presenting his latest baby. When I say latest I mean in the form of a baby that has come after Rickards creation of JBOSS. That alone makes you think that perhaps this baby might also be totally brilliant!
Here's Rickards presentation of his brain child Qi4j:
OOP neglects the need of objects to adjust its behavior depending on the context. "John is a parent and programmer in the city, but a hunter and food in the jungle." Same object, different contexts. OOP has also not fulfilled its promise of re-usability, partly due to such static behavior and partly due to its inability to deal with fine-granularity of states and behaviors. Composite Oriented Programming addresses these issues, and Qi4J is an implementation available to Java programmers today.
The meeting is sponsored by Øredev and hosted by Dotway.
The event starts at at 17.30 with intro, food and conversations and Rickard starts around 18.30.
For participation send an email about weather or not you want food to mat@snug.se, no later than Monday 22/9!
Where: Dotway, Hans Michelsensgatan 9, Malmö
See you there!
Cheers,
/Magnus
