PROJECT IMPLEMENTATION

To start this project, we first created a data dictionary with a CDM (conceptual data model). Then, we created our user application. We can choose between several menus:

• Staff management
• Customer management
• Inventory management
• Order management

To create the GUI of the application, we used WinForms (to create buttons, data grid views, labels and many other features).

To use it, the user will have to click on a button in the system to create, modify or delete a staff member (or any other management tool). As soon as he presses the button, it will send a request to the system to display the staff list. Also, with this information, the user will fill in the corresponding data of the form received to add or modify the staff member. For the city, the user will enter the address where the staff member lives and it will search for the cities and zip code that the user chooses. Further, the user will validate the data he filled in earlier with the added city and zip code and this will send the confirmation request to the database. In addition, the database will save the added or modified information and return the list of personnel to see if the addition or modification was successful. Then the program will close updating the received data.

ACQUIRED SKILLS

During this project I learned to use the C++ language, to create a user interface, to use the mvc model (model, view, controller).

OPINION ON THE PROJECT

I think this project was very enriching, it allowed me to discover a new programming language and to practice new methods like mvc. I really enjoyed this project. I really like to develop in different programming languages.
