[TriLUG] [OT] looking for book on object oriented design

[Joseph Mack NA3T]

The introductory C++ course I'm taking doesn't address 
design. We aren't given sample implementations of the 
homework after it's handed back, to see what we could have 
done. In one of the homeworks I am required to have a class 
that only has data (the only methods are getters,setters and 
operator<<()). It occurs to me that this shouldn't be a 
class, but just data in the class which now calls it.

I have Riel, "Object Oriented Design Heurists" which is 
partially comprehensible and Gamma, Helm, Johnson and 
Vlissides, "Design Patterns" which is beyond me.

Coming from a procedural background, I'm looking for a book 
to learn to cast problems into an object oriented format. 
I'm not primarily interested in the coding, although I would 
be glad to see code to explain the implementation of the 
design.

Thanks Joe
