Foundations of C# Programming and the .NET Framework [GK2346]

OVERVIEW

In this course, you will be introduced to the .NET framework through an overview of languages, libraries, services, and tools. You’ll then learn the foundations of the C# language. From basics to the newer features such as generics, partial classes, static classes, global namespace qualification, and so forth. are integrated throughout the course.

OBJECTIVES

• Examine core language features such as types, variables, and control constructs
• Use object-oriented features such as class, interface, protection, and inheritance
• Perform error notification and error handling using exceptions
• Use properties to implement the private data/public accessor pattern
• Use namespaces to group related types
• Use delegates and events to implement callbacks
• Override Object class methods such as ToString
• Avoid dll conflicts during deployment
• Use dynamic binding and polymorphism to write generic code (i.e., less code!)
• Distinguish between "implementation inheritance" and "interface inheritance"
• Use ADO.NET to connect to SQL Server and run a simple query
• Build a basic Windows Forms GUI
