In this course, you’ll learn to use Visual Studio 2005 to explore the Visual
C# 2005 language. The course starts with a quick overview of the .NET platform,
examining assemblies, Microsoft Intermediate Language, Visual Studio profiles,
XML comments, IntelliSense, and debugging. From there, you’ll learn all the
language features that you must internalize in order to create full-featured Web
or Windows applications that make best use of the .NET platform. You’ll learn
about data types, variables, and operators, along with all the important flow
control structures. You’ll work through several examples demonstrating the power
of the .NET Framework, and dig into creating and consuming your own classes and
objects. The course moves on to working with data structures, such as arrays and
collection classes, before finishing up with discussions of generics, handling
exceptions and working with delegates and events. By the end of this course, you
will understand the important basic concepts that will allow you to start
creating the applications you need.In this course you’ll learn how to:
- Build and debug applications using Visual Studio 2005.
- Create and use variables, operators, and data types.
- Find and use the classes you need within the .NET Framework.
- Manage flow control within your code, branching and looping as needed.
- Create and consume classes and objects.
- Add and consume properties and methods in your classes.
- Make use of .NET’s object-oriented features, such as overloading,
inheritance and interfaces.
- Store, retrieve, and manipulate multiple values using arrays.
- Work with .NET 2.0’s generics.
- Make best use of the .NET Framework’s support for collection classes.
- Handle exceptions in your code.
- Create and use delegates, and understand how they relate to events.
