Feature-Oriented Programming (FOP)

Introduced 1997 by Christian Prehofer Based on Object-Oriented Programming Features realize functionalities Features are cross-cutting to objects Features modularize fragments from certain classes Fragment contains some methods/elds of a class belonging to one functionality Goals: code traceability, software customization
