- Sub: Missing MVC book
-
- In doing some research on Model-View-Controller techniques, I've come across an
- unresolved pointer. On page 30 of "An Introduction to Object-Oriented
- Programming and Smalltalk," Drs. Lewis J. Pinson and Richard S. Wiener write
- that:
-
- "[a] book describing the MVC triad and how to develop graphics-based
- applications will be published by Addison-Wesley in 1988."
-
- Unfortunately, they don't list the title or author although, from context, it
- might have been written by Adele Goldberg, author of "Smalltalk-80: The
- Interactive Programming Environment" and other Smalltalk-80 books.
-
- I called Addison-Wesley, and the best they could do was to tell me that
- Goldberg is scheduled for another book in a couple of years, but nothing new
- was shipped in 1988 or later. I also left messages for Pinson and Wiener, but
- one's out for the summer and the other's on sabatical.
-
- Does this book exist, or is it just another case of vaporware?
