a good resource or book for architecting object-oriented software
- by Ygam
I have looked at a couple of books and all I have looked at were just discussing the technicalities of OOP. By technicalities I mean, here's a concept, here's some code, now get working. I have yet to see a book that discusses the architectural process, what are the ways of doing this, why doing this is bad, how to actually incorporate design patterns in a real-world project, etc.
Can you recommend a good resource or book? I am mainly programming with PHP but a language-agnostic book/resource would do :)
