Student Records Manager
An integrated Java application designed to manage regular and part-time student records while demonstrating core Object-Oriented Programming concepts, exception handling, arrays, loops, serialization and a Java AWT graphical interface.
Student Records Manager
Integrated Object-Oriented Application
Project Completed
PROJECT OVERVIEW
A practical demonstration of Java OOP
This project combines several Java programming concepts into one working application rather than demonstrating each concept separately.
02
Object-Oriented Design
The system uses inheritance, method overriding, objects, classes and encapsulation.
03
Persistent Records
Student records can be serialized to a file and restored through deserialization.
FIVE REQUIRED ELEMENTS
Requirements demonstrated in the application
Each required element from the mini-project specification is implemented in the application.
Inheritance
The application contains a Person superclass with Student and PartTimeStudent subclasses. Methods are overridden where appropriate.
Array & Loop
A Person array stores student objects and a loop processes the stored records.
Custom Exception
InvalidStudentException is used to validate student information and handle invalid ages.
Serialization
Student records are saved to students.dat and can later be restored through deserialization.
Java AWT GUI
AWT components provide the graphical interface for adding, displaying, saving and loading student records.
SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE
How the application is organized
The application separates responsibilities across different Java classes.
