Object Orientated programming is a methodology and is by no means
dependent
on whatever language. One can do object oriented programming in COBOL. It
might take a bit more work to create the whimsical abstract objects, but
it's certainly doable. To create an object in COBOL place a comment at the
top of the module that says "OBJECT: MyObject".


Exactly.


I like the object oriented approach. Using it in java helped me do all
languages better, even the supposedly non object oriented languages.
That's
because object orientation is a way of thinking more than anything else.


Back in the day when I was teaching, I was occasionally asked "How do you
know when you get it [OO]"?
I replied, "When you find it difficult to imagine how to do it differently".
IMHO, anyone that pooh-poohs OO just hasn't got it yet. <g>
