 Interface

 User interacts with application using well-defined user

interface.
 Two types of interface:
 CUI (Character User Interface)
 Commands for user interaction
 Not much user friendly
 E.g. Console Application

 GUI (Graphical User Interface)

 No need to remember commands
 Very easy to use & user friendly
 E.g. Windows Application

 WINDOWS FORMS

28-11-2014 ANKIT VERMA 3

 Windows Form

 Accept input from user & display information.

 Develop desktop based application.
 Provides full support of database connectivity & image
formats.
 System.Windows.Forms namespace support Form
Class.
 Title Bar, Menu Bar & Control Box are at top of form.
 Main area is called Client Area, surrounded by border.
 Form associated controls enriched with predefined
Properties, Methods & Events.
28-11-2014 ANKIT VERMA 4
 Windows Form

 Properties
 Define characteristics of controls like color, size, border etc.

 Methods
 Methods are defined by the action that an object can perform.

 Events
 These are actions that can be recognized by the objects.

 Event occur when the user, OS or application interact with

objects of program.
 They control the appearance & behavior of a form either at
design time or run time.

 E.g. Word
 By default, VB.NET support SDI application, where
only one window displayed at a time.
 E.g. Wordpad
 In MDI Application, child forms are displayed as
independent windows under parent MDI window.
28-11-2014 ANKIT VERMA 12
 MDI Forms

 Create a form & set IsMDIContainer property true, it

will act as container.
 Attach the menus to MIDI parent form.
 Click event of menu item, write:
Form2.Show()
 Add one more Form to project.
 Write code on load of Second Form:
Me.MdiParent = Form1
 Run the code & click on menu item.

 Creating User Controls

28-11-2014 ANKIT VERMA 93

 Creating User Controls

 All windows form controls are reusable components

and they are used for window based application.
 We can create our own control other than existing.
 We can combine existing & our own custom control.
 Two main classes used for creating custom controls:
 Control Class
 Provide all basic functionality for the windows user.
 Handles user input through keyboard, mouse etc.

 User Class
 It is inherited child of control class.
 Provide empty control that can be used to create other control.

28-11-2014 ANKIT VERMA 94

 Creating User Controls : Types Of Controls

 There are three types of controls that can be created:

 Composite Control
 It is collection of Windows Form controls contained in single
container.
 Also called Constituent Controls.

 Extended Control
 In this, we derive an inherited control from the existing one.
 In this approach, we can retain all the functionality of parent control
and extend those functionality by adding our own custom properties
& methods.
 Custom Control
 This is new control from the beginning by inheriting from Control
Class.

 OBJECT ORIENTED
CONCEPTS

28-11-2014 ANKIT VERMA 101

 Object Oriented Concepts

 VB.NET is an Object Oriented Programming language

with features:
 Abstraction
 Encapsulation
 Polymorphism
 Inheritance
 It also support following:
 Overloading

 Overriding

 Structure

 Class

28-11-2014 ANKIT VERMA 102

 Class

 Class is generally called a Blueprint or User Defined

Data Type.
 Class is collection of objects of similar type.
 Class consists of Attributes (Data Members) and
Behaviors (Member Functions), that are used by
Instances of that class.
 Class is an Abstract entity.
 Members of Class:
 Data Members, Properties, Methods & Events
 Class Access Specifiers:
 Public, Private, Protected, Friend & Protected Friend
28-11-2014 ANKIT VERMA 103
 Object

 Objects are Real Time entity.

 They may present as Person, Place, Bank Account, Table of
Data, Item etc.
 It is Instance of class.
 Each object contain data & code to manipulate data.
 Two types of data members:
 Static or Class Member
 Members that apply to Class and called by their class names.
 Shared keyword is used with members.
 Instance or Object Member
 Members that apply to object.
 They referred by object name.

28-11-2014 ANKIT VERMA 104

 Overloading & Overriding

 Overloading
 Provide different versions of a method that has same name &
different parameters.
 Parameters can be different from name, data type or ordering of
parameters.
 Overriding
 Replace inherited property or method.

 Overridden methods in subclass must be same as base class

method including name and parameters.

28-11-2014 ANKIT VERMA 105

 Class Object Example

 Example:

28-11-2014 ANKIT VERMA 106

 Constructor

 Special methods that allow control over initialization

of objects.
 Constructors are Procedures with name Sub New.
 Run when Instance of class is created.
 Explicitly called only from other Constructors.
 Parameterized Constructors:
 Parameters can be passed to constructors also.
 Shared Constructors can’t have parameters.

28-11-2014 ANKIT VERMA 107

 Constructor Types

 Two types of Constructors:

 Shared Constructors
 Used to initialize Shared variables.
 Created using Shared keyword & shared with all instance of class.
 Not run more than one, during single execution of program.
 Explicitly Public access & we can’t write explicitly.
 We can’t initialize Instance variable in Constructor.

 Instance Constructors
 Initialize variable that are declared with Dim, Public, Private,
Friend, Protected etc.
 You can also access Shared variable within this.

28-11-2014 ANKIT VERMA 108

 Constructor Example

28-11-2014 ANKIT VERMA 109

 Destructor

 Special method used to release Objects from memory.

 Two types of Destructors:
 Finalize Method
 Called from the class or derived class, to which it belong.
 Called after last reference to an Object is released from Memory.
 .NET automatically runs Finalize Destructor.
 We can’t determine it’s execution, when an Object loses its scope.
 CLR calls this using system call called Garbage Collection.
 CLR periodically check for Object, if Object not used, this Destructor
is called automatically and Garbage Collection Starts.
 Finalize method is Overridden when we write our code Explicitly.

 Dispose
28-11-2014 ANKIT VERMA 110
 Destructor

 Dispose Method
 Problem with Finalize Method is non deterministic nature.
 We can’t determine Finalize Method call explicitly.

 Dispose Method is called to release resource such as Database

Connection, File Handler or System Lock.
 Unlike Finalize Method, this is not called Automatically.
 Through code we have to call this Explicitly.

 Example:
Protected Overrides Sub Finalize ( )
MsgBox (“Object Out Of Scope”)
EndSub

28-11-2014 ANKIT VERMA 111

 Structure

 It is User Defined Data Type.

 Structure combines Variables & Methods.
 Single Variable of Structure can hold different types of data.
 Structure can be declared Inside Class, Namespace, Module
or Another Structure.
 Access Specifiers are allowed for Structure & their members.
 Only Shared Members & Constants can be Initialized.
 Like Class, Structure have Constructors but only
parameterized.
 If we have Default Constructor, that must be declared as Shared one.

28-11-2014 ANKIT VERMA 112

 Structure Example

 Example:

28-11-2014 ANKIT VERMA 113

 Structure With Constructor Example

 Example:

28-11-2014 ANKIT VERMA 114

 Class VS Structure

 Similarities:
 Both are User Defined Data Types.

 Both support members like Constructor, Variables, Constants,

Methods, Events etc.
 Both have Shared Constructors with or without parameters.

 Both can implement Interfaces.

28-11-2014 ANKIT VERMA 115

 Class vs Structure

 Differences:
 Class can be Inherited from other Class, but Structure not.

 Class can have Instance Constructors with and without

parameters, but Structure only have parameterized.
 Class is Reference type, but Structure is Value type.

 Class allow initialization of members inside Class, but Structure

not allow inside initialization.
 Class have Private as default Access Specifier for all variables &
constants, but Structure have Public by default.
 Class Procedures can handle Events, but not in Structure.

28-11-2014 ANKIT VERMA 116

 Method Overloaing

28-11-2014 ANKIT VERMA 117

 Method Overloading

 Overloading Methods have same name, but different

argument lists.
 Argument may differ in Type, Number or Order Of
The Parameter.
 Return type of Overloading Method can be Same or
Different.
 Method invoked depends upon the type of argument
passed.
 Overloading is example of Polymorphism.

 Shared Members

 Shared keyword can be used with Constructor,

Methods & Variables.
 Shared methods can be overloaded like regular
methods.
 Shared variables create only one copy for all instances
of class.

 Inheritance

28-11-2014 ANKIT VERMA 123

 Inheritance

 Inheritance refers to deriving new Class from existing Class.

 Derived Class is known as Sub Class and Parent Class is
known as Base Class.
 Derived Class inherits all Public & Protected Data Members,
Methods, Events & Constants.
 Constructor can’t be inherited.
 Types of Inheritance:
 Single
 Multi Level
 Hierarchical
 Multiple Inheritance only supported by using Interface

 Inheritance : Keywords

 Inherits
 Inherits keyword is used to inherit Class.

 MustInherit
 Indicate that Class must be inherited by other Class.
 It act as Base Class and similar to Abstract Class of Java.
 NonInheritable
 If class is marked NonInheritable, we can’t create its Sub Class

 MyBase
 Call parent Class Constructor and Parent Class Overridden Methods.

 It always refers the immediate Super Class.

 We can’t navigate to more than one level from the Child Class.

 MyBase.MethodName is not allowed in .NET

 Inheritance : Keywords

 Overloads
 Indicate that methods are Overloading.

 If Methods are in same class, no necessary to write this keyword.

 Overridable
 Allow method to be Overridden.
 Overrides keyword is used to override the Overridable Method.
 NotOverridable
 Prevent the method being Overridden.

 MustOverride
 Methods must be declared in MultiInherit Class.

 MustInherit
 Enable Abstract Class creation. Child Class must implement all Abstract
Methods, otherwise Child Class also must declared as Abstract Class.

 Method Overriding

28-11-2014 ANKIT VERMA 130

 Method Overriding

 Sub Class is not only Inheriting but it can also give its
own implementation (override) for methods.
 All the methods can’t be Overridden.
 To allow methods to Overridden, Parent Class method
must use Overridable keyword.

 Abstract
Base Class

28-11-2014 ANKIT VERMA 133

 Abstract Base Class

 MustInherit keyword is used to create Abstract Class.

 Contain Signature of method, that Derived Class can
implement in its own Class.
 We can’t create Object of it.
 Method with MustOverride keyword should not
contain any implementation.
 Class with even one MustOverride method, should be
declared as MustInherit.
 To implement method, Overrides keyword use in Sub
Class.
28-11-2014 ANKIT VERMA 134
 Abstract Base Class

 If Sub Class is not implementing any one of Abstract

methods from Abstract Class, then Child Class must
be declared as Abstract one.
 Abstract Class can contain Non-Abstract Method also.

 Interface

28-11-2014 ANKIT VERMA 137

 Interface

 Interface defines Properties, Method and Events, called

members of Interface.
 Interface consist of only Declaration of Members but not
the Implementation.
 Only Class and Structure implement these data
members.
 Variables can’t be declared in the Interface.
 Single Class can inherit from only one Base Class, but
can implement any number of Interfaces.
 It support Multiple Inheritance.
 Implements keyword is used for their implementation.
28-11-2014 ANKIT VERMA 138
 Interface Vs Class

 Interface can’t provide any implementation, whereas

Class can provide implementation to Methods.
 Interface can’t have Constructors, but Class can define
Constructors.
 A Class inherits from only one Class, but implements
multiple Interface.
