13

.NET Framework Common Language Specification








Common Language SpecificationCommon Language SpecificationC++C++ C#C# VBVB PerlPerl J#J# ……

14

Common Type System (CTS)

• All .NET languages have the same primitive data types. An int in C# is the same as an int in VB.NET, COBOL.Net, Haskell, …

• When communicating between modules written in any .NET language, the types are guaranteed to be compatible on the binary level

• Types can be:– Value types – passed by value, stored in the stack– Reference types – passed by reference, stored in the heap

• Strings are a primitive data type now

15

Common Language Specification (CLS)

• Any language that conforms to the CLS is a .NET language

• A language that conforms to the CLS has the ability to take full advantage of the Framework Class Library (FCL)

• CLS is standardized by ECMA

16

.NET Languages

• Languages provided by Microsoft– C++, C#, J#, VB.NET, JScript

• Third-parties languages– Perl, Python, Pascal, APL, COBOL, Eiffel, Haskell, ML,

Oberon, Scheme, Smalltalk…

• Advanced multi-language features– Cross-language inheritance and exceptions handling

• Object system is built in, not bolted on– No additional rules or API to learn

• All compile to .Net Assemblies– Contains MSIL and metadata

17

Intermediate Language

• .NET languages are compiled to an Intermediate Language (IL)

• IL is also known as MSIL or CIL• CLR compiles IL in just-in-time (JIT) manner –

each function is compiled just before execution• The JIT code stays in memory for subsequent

calls• Recompilations of assemblies are also possible

18

Example of MSIL Code

.method private hidebysig static void Main() cil managed

{ .entrypoint // Code size 11 (0xb) .maxstack 8 IL_0000: ldstr "Hello, world!" IL_0005: call void

[mscorlib]System.Console::WriteLine(string) IL_000a: ret} // end of method HelloWorld::Main

22

.NET Security

• Role-based Security– What the user is allowed to do within the application

– .NET Roles = Windows Active Directory® groups

• Code Access Security– What the code is allowed to do on this machine

– Evidence Based (Policies, Permissions, Evidence)

• Cryptography Built In to .NET FX

23

Visual Basic .NET

• Evolution, not revolution, of language used by developers worldwide

• Builds on existing technology while adding power– True OOP

– Multithreading

– NT Services

– Web Services

• The fastest way to build scalable applications for industry

24

Visual J# .NET

• Native support for XML Web services • Fully integrated with Visual Studio .NET

development environment• Full access to the .NET Framework

– ASP.NET, ADO.NET, Windows Forms

– Integration with >20 other languages

• Protection of existing investments– Use java language syntax on .NET

– Move applications and skills forward

25

Visual C++ .NETContinue to provide most powerful

and flexible language

• Better ANSI/ISO conformance

• Enable seamless, incremental use of .NET Framework

• Enhanced ATL Servers

• Improved ATL and MFC Clients

• Enhanced STL

26

Visual C# .NET Component Oriented Language

• C# is the first “component oriented” language in the C/C++ family

• Component concepts are first class:– Properties, methods, events

– Design-time and run-time attributes

– Integrated documentation using XML

• Enables one-stop programming– No header files, IDL, etc.

– C++ heritage – simplification with no unnecessary sacrifices

• If you are serious about .Net you need to learn C#

27

C#

• Hello world

using System;

class HelloWorld { public static void Main() { Console.WriteLine(“Hello World!"); }}

>csc HelloWorld.cs>Hello World!

28

C#

• Properties

public class button { private string caption;

public string Caption { get { return caption; } set { if (value != null) caption = value; } }}

button b = new button();

b.Caption = “abc”string s = b.Caption;

29

C#

• Parameter Passing

By Value

public static void Swap(ref int x, ref int y) { int z = x; x = y; y = z;}

By Reference

30

C#

• Pointers– Not recommended for use

public struct Node { public int value; public unsafe Node* next;}

public unsafe class A { . . .

public class A { public unsafe void B (char *p) { . . .

31

C#

• Boxing / Unboxing– Allows value types to be converted to and from objects automatically

ArrayList list = new ArrayList();int z = 100;

list.Add(1); list.Add(13.12); list.Add(z); //integers are automatically boxed //when they are added to the list

32

C#

• Versioning– C# requires developers to clearly state their intent

• Use of the keyword ‘new’ and ‘override’

Class Derived B { new public void x () { . . .

Class Derived B { public override void x () { . . .

33

C# 2.0 Language Enhancements

• Generics• Anonymous methods• Iterators• Partial types

34

Generics

public class Listpublic class List<<TT>> {{ private private TT[] elements;[] elements; private int count;private int count;

public void Add(public void Add(TT element) { element) { if (count == elements.Length) if (count == elements.Length) Resize(count * 2);Resize(count * 2); elements[count++] = element;elements[count++] = element; }}

public public TT this[int index] { this[int index] { get { return elements[index]; }get { return elements[index]; } set { elements[index] = value; }set { elements[index] = value; } }}

public int Count {public int Count { get { return count; }get { return count; } }}}}

ListList<int><int> intList = new List intList = new List<int><int>();();

intList.Add(1);intList.Add(1); // No boxing// No boxingintList.Add(2);intList.Add(2); // No boxing// No boxingintList.Add("Three");intList.Add("Three"); // Compile-time // Compile-time errorerror

int i = intList[0];int i = intList[0]; // No cast required// No cast required

35

Visual Studio .NET

• Development tool that contains a rich set of productivity and debugging features– Supports managed and unmanaged applications– Supports C#, C++, VB.NET, …– Many useful tools and wizards– Windows Forms Designer– ASP.NET Web Forms Designer– Web Services support– SQL Server integration with ADO.NET and XML

• VS.NET is not part of the .NET Framework– Not necessary to build or run managed code– The .NET Framework SDK includes command line compilers

36

VS.NET – Single Development Environment
