| Description |
This material presents
Microsoft's C# programming language and the use of Visual
Studio 2008 to develop Windows applications using the .Net
3.5 Framework and libraries. Essential language syntax is
included along with working with arrays, collections and
exceptions.
Object-Oriented concepts are covered by creating/using
Classes, Inheritance and Polymorphism, including interfaces,
generics and overloading. SDI/MDI Windows application using
Forms, Controls and Events are developed and enhanced,
including data-bound controls. Database applications are
developed using ADO.Net Data Sources and DataGridView/ToolStrip
Controls. Organizing classes, libraries and application
deployment mechanisms are presented, along with IDE
Debugging facilities.
