Description
The topics that are covered in INFS2605 build on the programming skills introduced in INFS1609/INFS2609, providing students with a thorough review of software development processes and object-oriented programming principles. Students will then expand their Java skills and knowledge through the study of Model View Controller architecture, event-driven programming and Graphical User Interfaces (GUI). Specifically, the course introduces students to the development of JavaFX GUI applications, using Scenebuilder. Building on this, students are then provided with an overview of exception handling and taught how to develop basic database applications using Java Database Connectivity, an application programming interface (API), which defines how a client may access a database. This course concludes with an introduction to API’s that facilitate the development of reporting functionalities (e.g. exporting data to excel) from database applications.
