OOPS is an object-oriented programming environment with integrated data management facilities. It is designed to especially support advanced applications, like engineering and office applications. Rich data modeling facilities, including the concepts of classification, generalization, and aggregation are provided. Additionally, complex semantic integrity constraints, exception-handling mechanisms, and triggers can be specified. Since all these facilities are integrated into a single language, the artificial distinction between database language and programming language is no longer existent. The main features of the programming language and the architecture of OOPS are presented.
