SECTION B - Practical Case Study: (70 marks)

Read carefully the case study below and use it to develop a solution in Java.

Online Bookstore

Background: You are tasked with developing an online bookstore application in Java. The
application should allow users to browse and purchase books from various categories. You
need to design and implement the system using Object-Oriented Programming principles.

1. Packages:

Package Classes
• Administrator.java
accounts
• Customer.java
• Book.java
inventory • Category.java
• All Category classes (Fiction, Non-fiction, Mystery)
• Cart.java
executable
• Main.java

2. User Class (Customer and Administrator classes):

• User: auto-generated ID, firstname, lastname, address, phone


• Implement two child classes namely (customer and administrator classes) with
appropriate distinct fields, e.g., administrators must have login privileges (username,
role, password) and customers may further have credit points attained at every
purchase and will determine discounts in future purchases.
• Customer profile should also have a collection of books bought.

3. Book Class:

• Create a Book class that represents a book with attributes such as auto-generated ID,
title, author, price, and isbn (International Standard Book Number).
• Implement proper encapsulation for these attributes.

4. Category Class:

• Create a Category class that represents a category of books (e.g., Fiction, Non-fiction,
Mystery).
• Use inheritance to ensure that each category inherits common attributes from a parent
class, such as name and description.

5. Bookstore Class:

• Create a Bookstore class that manages the collection of books available for purchase.
• The bookstore must have an ID and a location.
Implement a method to add books to the store's inventory, taking into consideration quantities
of books stored.

Implement a method to search for books by title or author within a specific category. Allow
store administrators to manage the inventory, adding and removing books.

6. Shopping Cart:

Design a shopping cart class that allows customers to add and remove books. The cart must
have an auto-generated ID, Customer ID, store ID and seller ID

It must have a list of books selected and their quantities, also, ensure that the shopping cart
can calculate the total cost of the items added.

The cart must invoke methods in the bookstore class to check whether required quantities to
be purchased are available and reduce the stock when purchases are made

7. Exception Handling, Abstraction and Polymorphism

Implement exception handling for scenarios like adding duplicate books to the shopping cart
or searching for a book that doesn't exist. Utilize abstraction to hide the internal
implementation details of the Book class while providing a public interface to access its
attributes. Implement polymorphism by creating different subclasses of Category (eg.
FictionCategory, NonFictionCategory) that override methods like getDescription

Guidelines:

• Start by creating a class diagram that outlines the relationships between classes and
their attributes/methods
• Use appropriate exception classes for exception handling (eg.
DuplicateBookException, BookNotFoundException)
• Test your application thoroughly with a menu-driven main method by:
o Create bookstore
o Create category
o Create books
o Manage Inventory
o Create Customer
o Customer shopping

You may add other menus you deem necessary to demonstrate your creativity.
