were from the AM who was talking about OO as being a way to manage the coupling in your system.

I will need to digest that idea for a bit I think.

Cheers,
Ben

[...] OO as being a way to manage the coupling in your system

Bob Martin from Object Mentor has been pushing the "OO is about coupling" message for many years. If you are not familiar with his writings, check out the object mentor site (a link to the design principles area is: [link|http://www.objectmentor.com/resources/listArticles?key=topic&topic=Design%20Principles|http://www.objectmen...sign%20Principles]). The Open/close and Liskov substitution principles are good places to start, but the real practical stuff begins in the Dependency Inversion and Interface Segregation principles.
