About this class

Microsoft's .NET Framework presents developers with unprecedented opportunities. From 'geo-scalable' web applications to desktop and mobile platform applications, all can be built with equal ease, using substantially the same skill-set. But to make the most of this potential, developers must have a thorough grasp of core language skills. C# is a language developed by Microsoft for the .NET Framework, which combines the power of C++ with the productivity of Visual Basic. Now in its second version, C# has gained a number of new features that make it even more expressive and powerful than ever.

This four-day workshop concentrates on the C# programming language itself, to prepare delegates fully in readiness for exploring the .NET Framework. From basic procedural syntax to sophisticated object-oriented programming techniques, delegates will learn how to write .NET applications with code that is robust, maintainable and efficient. The course is presented as a mixture of lectures and hands-on exercises. Practical sessions follow each topic, designed to reinforce the points covered.

Who will the lesson benefit?

Developers using C# to write .NET Framework applications and who are new to the C# programming language. This includes those currently working with Visual Basic, C++ or Java.

Note: Developers who will be using Visual Studio .NET 2003 and C# 1.x will also benefit from attending the course, as the skills learned on the course can be applied to the older version.

What prerequisites are required

Delegates must understand the fundamentals of programming and have some prior exposure to object oriented programming.

Contents of this class

  • Write efficient procedural code that includes appropriate sequence, selection and iteration constructs
  • Create and use classes and structures (types), including fields, properties and methods using private, internal and public scope
  • Create derived classes that inherit from custom-written or .NET Framework Library classes
  • Create interfaces and apply techniques of polymorphism effectively and appropriately
  • Build exception-handling into methods, to create robust, user-friendly application behaviour
  • Work effectively with delegates and events and understand how they operate
  • Leverage the power of C# features such as indexers and iterators
  • Work with generic types, operator overloading and other advanced language capabilities
  • Use attributes to configure program behaviour and efficiently manage resources
