I did not imply that OO was absolutely bad. It's what people are doing with it. It's been a plague for the last 10 years. The rope is long and thick, more than enough to hang yourself in several reincarnations.
As far as using OO to represent the real world, it's a mistake. Things are not as straight forward as they look like. Modeling the surface is most of the time wrong not withstanding the time it can take to model everything you can see because you did not think about the essential stuff you will really need to solve the problem at hand. I saw enough insane models were the business "model" was so utterly complex that it made any system improvement a Titan task. Generality gets hit badly in many OO designs. You can build an 8 mille bridge with Lego bricks but it's not optimal. There are better ways. We are not ants or termites. Luc P. > Relevant?
