INDIVIDUAL ASSIGNMENT

I would like to express my deepest appreciation to all those who provided me the possibility
to complete this assignment. A special gratitude I give to my Lecturer Miss Saeedeh Alsadat
Tabatabaei, whose contribution in stimulating suggestions and encouragement helped me to
coordinate my assignment especially for teaching me this module in such a way that I were
able to learn this highly technical module very easily.
Finally, an honorable mention goes to my family and friends for their understandings and
supports me in completing this assignment. Without helps of the particular that mentioned
above, I could face many difficulties while doing this.

INTRODUCTION
This documentation gives an overview of BP Apartment Management System (BPAMS)
which has been developed in C++ programming language. In this system has been tried to
use object oriented concepts as much as possible such as inheritance, polymorphism, function
overloading and objects as well as classes. To make sure system working smoothly there has
been some validation apartment id, owner id and owner contact number and some more
functions such as menu and navigation through the system using Switch statement. The data
are stored in a file and each record is distinguished by apartment id which is considered
record number in the file. There is a use case diagram and a class diagram has been provided
to ensure deep understanding of the system and its sequence of functions.

SCREEN SHOTS
USER LOGIN

This figure shows the user login form. In order to enter the system, user are required to enter
their user name and their password which is already register by the staff before. This system
can be used by three person Staff, Owner and Customer.

STAFF MAIN MENU

The figure above displays the staff main menu of the system that comes alongside six
options. The first option is Change password for staff. Next in order to add user, the staff is
who the one in charge for user registration. Besides the staff can add, edit and view the
apartments details.

Object oriented concepts

Classes
Class is defined in C++ programming using keyword class followed by identifier (name of
class). Body of class is defined inside curly brackets a terminated by semicolon at the end in
similar way as structure. There are few classes in the BP Apartment Management System
(BPAMS) which is used as a part of inheritance application in the code.
User parent class

16

Staff child class of users

INDIVIDUAL ASSIGNMENT

Objects
Object has same relationship to class as variable has with the data type. Objects can be
defined in similarly way as structure is defined. The main objects in the BP Apartment
Management System including Login object user class object, staff class object, owner class
object and customer class object. The following code indicates the declaration of objects in
the BP Apartment Management System.

Encapsulation
18

CT025-3-2-PCPP

INDIVIDUAL ASSIGNMENT

Encapsulation is the method of combining the data and functions inside a class. This hides the
data from being accessed from outside a class directly, only through the functions inside the
class is able to access the information.

Constructor
Constructors are the special type of member function that initializes the object automatically
when it is created Compiler identifies that the given member function is a constructor by its
name and return type. Constructor has same name as that of class and it does not have any
return type.
Vector constructor

Vector destructor

19

INDIVIDUAL ASSIGNMENT

Multiple Inheritances
Multiple inheritance can be a controversial topic. Its an important feature in C++ and C++
programmers think of it as a very good structuring tool.

INDIVIDUAL ASSIGNMENT

CONCLUSION
This assignment main purpose is to develop an application for them to manage the
apartments, bookings and rentals. There are 3 users of this system, namely the staff from
BackPacker Kelab Sdn Bhd, the owners of the apartment and the customers.
Besides that, this system also helps BackPacker staffs to update the status of apartment
payment. This BP Apartment Management System will be very useful for the user because it
helps the staff and to manage all records in the system, and helps the users to manage the
booking process easier with different level of user access.
In implementation users has much flexibility to run this program because every user has
different access control to perform selected feature in the system. Moreover this task had
leaded me to learn about the object oriented programming concept is such as classes and
objects, inheritance, and using files to store data in java programming. At this juncture, we
should like to seize this opportunity once more to thank our address Lecturer Miss Saeedeh
Alsadat Tabatabaei for providing us a chance to discover the globe of software design and
requesting the vision that we have obtained across address sessions in this assignment.
