Standard Eiffel syntax, validity, and semantics are described in this document, which is available [http://www.ecma-international.org/publications/standards/Ecma-367.htm online].

ECMA-367 is a specification for the Eiffel programming language. Therefore, it can be useful as a reference, but it is definitely not a tutorial. That said, the document does contain occasional informative text and a general description chapter which can help readers understand the specification.

''Eiffel: The Language'' is one of the foundation volumes of Eiffel technology. It was originally published in 1992, and reprinted later with updates and corrections.
|
||||
|
||||
Because the language specification has changed since the last reprinting to incorporate new quality and productivity constructs, hardcopies of ''Eiffel: The Language'', although still available, will represent the bulk of Eiffel correctly, but will not reflect the latest important changes.
|
||||
|
||||
Currently ''Standard Eiffel'', the successor to ''Eiffel: The Language'', is a work-in-progress and is available in its current state online (See ''Standard Eiffel'', on [http://se.ethz.ch/~meyer/publications/#PSTE this page]).
|
||||
|
||||
The most current state of Eiffel syntax, validity, and semantics is described in the ISO/ECMA [http://www.ecma-international.org/publications/standards/Ecma-367.htm standard document], also available online.

This Jolt Award winner takes the reader through the clear, logical, and comprehensive formation of a method for object-oriented software development ... the Eiffel method. During this journey, the author evolves a notation capable of expressing the products of each phase of development, from analysis through implementation. This notation is the Eiffel programming language.

==Praise for '''''Object-Oriented Software Construction, 2nd Edition'''''==
|
||||
|
||||
Roger Smith, on the Dr. Dobbs Journal website, writes:
|
||||
|
||||
:"In my unbiased opinion [...] it is destined to become the comprehensive and definitive reference for most methodological and technical questions raised by object technology. Its width and breadth of scope is impressive, from object-oriented techniques like Design by Contract and inheritance, to methodology issues like patterns and class design, to advanced issues like concurrency and persistence."
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
In ''Unix Review'', Stan Kelly-Bootle calls this book "The ultimate O-O guide."
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Ian Graham, in ''Journal of Object-Oriented Programming'' calls it "Epoch-making".

Is this really a book about Eiffel? Perhaps in some senses it is not. It is a book about exactly what the subtitle indicates: ''Learning to Program Well with Objects and Contracts.'' (Primary emphasis should fall on the word "''Well''".)
|
||||
|
||||
Still, the Eiffel method and language are used in this journey as tools, the best tools known, to help those seeking excellence in software development become prepared to meet the types of challenges a career in software will present. In the rapidly changing software world, this is a tall order. As the preface (for instructors) states:
|
||||
|
||||
:'' It is not enough to present immediately applicable technology, for which in our globalized industry a cheaper programmer will always be available somewhere ... [Software professionals] must master software development as a professional endeavor, and by this distinguish themselves from the masses of occasional or amateur programmers.''
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
''Touch of Class'' imparts its message using techniques which have accumulated through decades of study of technical learning and have been applied for several years in courses at ETH Zurich. These techniques include the extensive study and reuse of libraries of high-quality software components, employment of the Eiffel object-oriented method and Design by Contract, an introduction to formal methods and a ubiquitous awareness for software engineering concerns.
|
||||
|
||||
A unique and refreshing aspect of ''Touch of Class'' is seen throughout the volume. Credit is given for ideas which form the foundation of modern software thinking, and in the process, those pioneers upon whose shoulders all software professionals stand, are made human and personal by photographs and historical vignettes.
