Booch Components?

[Joe Orost]

Remember the Booch Components?  I'm looking for a reference
to the book that describes them.  Please send email.

                                regards,
                                joe

Does this book contain the body impementations of the software components?

Some of them, not all.

Booch, G.
Software Components with Ada.
Benjamin Cummings, 1987. ISBN 0-8053-0610-2
  This work is an encyclopedic presentation of data structure packages
from Booch's OOD point of view. It is great for those who love
taxonomies. It's not for the faint-hearted, because the volume of
material can be overwhelming. It could serve as a text for an advanced
data structures course, but it's thin in "big O" analysis and other
algorithm-theory matters. The book is keyed to the (purchasable) Booch
Components.

 ^^^^^^^^^^
Then again, who really cares about studying yellow cars? :-)

The revision will be even less desirable to somebody wanting to use
the book as a college text.  There will still be "thin" discussions
of Big-O analysis and algorithm-theory.  There are many good texts on
those things out there, and they will certainly be referenced.  The
focus of the book will be aimed at practitioners.  It will also be a
little smaller :-)
