Basic .NET
Fundamentals of Programming

Lecture # 1

Tariq Ibn Aziz

Compunet Corporation 1
Evolution of computer languages

Compunet Corporation 2
Running a program

Compunet Corporation 3
Program Forms
• Program exist in two forms
– Source code (“hello.vb” text form of program)
– Object code (“hello.exe”executed by the computer)
• .NET compiler produce an object file that contain
intermediate code.

Compiling a program

Visual Studio.NET Development
Environment
• In Visual Studio.NET 2005,
many project templates are
available, such as:
– Console Application
– Window Application
– Windows Services
– ASP.NET Web Application
– Smart Device Application

Compunet Corporation 6
Object Oriented Programming

• Visual Basic .NET is an Object-Oriented


Programming Language
• Object contains
– data,
– method and
– constructor

Compunet Corporation 7
Namespaces
• Namespace organizes base class libraries
• Top namespace is System
• All Windows Forms inherits the
System.Windows.Forms.Form namespace

Compunet Corporation 8
VB.NET Class Libraries
• VB.NET provides a number of libraries of utility classes
and methods

• System
• System.Console
• System.Data
• System.IO.File
• System.Web
• System.Windows

Compunet Corporation 9
The .NET Framework
• An architectural model for creating programs that interface with the operating
system and base class libraries

• Contains a hierarchical set of Base Class Libraries

Compunet Corporation 10
Program Statements
• “A program statement is any combination of Visual Basic
keywords, properties, functions, operators, and symbols
that (make up) a valid instruction for the Visual Basic
compiler. (see p. 127)

• For example:

End
Label1.Text = TimeString

Compunet Corporation 11
Program Statements
• Syntax means the rules used to distinguish valid
statements from invalid ones.
• Syntax is like grammar in English.
• If the syntax is not correct, the compiler will give
you an error when you build your program.
• It’s possible to write a statement with good syntax
but bad semantics (meaning). This may result in
run-time errors.

Compunet Corporation 12
VB.NET Application
• Use notepad editor to write this VB.NET program, call
ILoveVB.vb
• VB.NET is not case sensitive, so be sure while writing the
filename and class name

Compunet Corporation 13
VB.NET Application
• Compile the program • Output

c:\> vbc ILoveVB.vb I Love VB …

• Run your program

c:\> ILoveVB

Compunet Corporation 14
IL Disassembler (ILDASM)
• View assembly using ILDASM

• Displays intermediate language

• Can view information about namespaces,


classes, and other programming structures

Compunet Corporation 15
