In software programming, SOLID is a mnemonic acronym for five design principles intended to make object-oriented designs more understandable, flexible, and maintainable. Although the SOLID principles apply to any object-oriented design, they can also form a core philosophy for methodologies such as agile development or adaptive software ...
Liskov's notion of a behavioural subtype defines a notion of substitutability for objects; that is, if S is a subtype of T, then objects of type T in a program may be replaced with objects of type S without altering any of the desirable properties of that program (e.g. correctness).
A 2013 study of 93 open source Java programs (of varying size) found that: While there is not huge opportunity to replace inheritance with composition (...), the opportunity is significant (median of 2% of uses [of inheritance] are only internal reuse, and a further 22% are only external or internal reuse).
Java gained popularity shortly after its release, and has been a popular programming language since then. [18] Java was the third most popular programming language in 2022 according to GitHub. [19] Although still widely popular, there has been a gradual decline in use of Java in recent years with other languages using JVM gaining popularity. [20]
Other forms of the phrase include "You aren't going to need it" (YAGTNI) [5] [6] and "You ain't gonna need it". [ 7 ] Ron Jeffries , a co-founder of XP, explained the philosophy: "Always implement things when you actually need them, never when you just foresee that you [will] need them."
In the 2000s the object-oriented Java (orange) and the procedural C (dark blue) competed for the top position. Many popular programming languages, like C++, Java, and Python, use object-oriented programming. In the past, OOP was widely accepted, [63] but recently, some programmers have criticized it and prefer functional programming instead. [64]
Design Patterns: Elements of Reusable Object-Oriented Software (1994) is a software engineering book describing software design patterns.The book was written by Erich Gamma, Richard Helm, Ralph Johnson, and John Vlissides, with a foreword by Grady Booch.
A common criticism is the idea that anemic domain model makes it easier to follow the SOLID principles: "The ‘S’ refers to the Single Responsibility Principle, which suggests that a class should do one thing, and do it well (...)". [5] But, according to Robert C. Martin, this is a misunderstanding of that principle:
