GOOP - Graphical Object Oriented Programming

GOOP stands for Graphical Object Oriented Programming. GOOP really hit mainstream with the release of the GOOP Toolkit from Endevo and National Instruments. OpenG even has its own version of GOOP, called OpenGOOP.

GOOP is great because it allows you to build components that encapsulate thier data, functionality, and behavior. Why ecapsulate?...

Benefits of Encapsulation

  • Maintainable
  • Scalable
  • Useable (and therefore Reusable)
  • Testable
  • Enable Multiple Developer Collaboration
