Transcript of Windows Programming.NET Overview Yingcai Xiao. What is a Computer? From the Webster’s New World...
What is a Computer?
From the Webster’s New World Dictionary: 1. A person who computes.2. A device used for computing (an electronic machine which by means of stored instructions and information, perform rapid, often complex calculations or compiles, correlates, and selects data).
What is a program and what is programming?
Programs: stored computer instructions for data processing.
Programming
= Data Structures + Algorithms
Professor Donald E. Knuth

What is Windows Programming?
Windows Programming:
Program for the Windows platform?
Program for the Internet on the Windows platform!
What is .NET?
.Net is a framework for developing OS-platform-independent, programming- language-independent, web-enabled, distributed applications.
Traditional Compilation (Linking)

Language 1 Compiler on OS1

OS-Independent Code: Intermediate Languages
The trend to support OS-independent binary code is to compile the source code into the binary format of an intermediate language.
And to provide an interpreter for the intermediate language on each OS to translate the binary code of the intermediate language into the native binary code of the OS.

Program statements are interpreted one at a time during the run-time.
JIT Compiler
An interpreter interprets intermediate code one line at a time. Slow execution.
A JIT (Just-In-Time) Compiler compiles the complete code all at once just into native binary code before execution. Faster execution.

JIT Compilation in .NET
All MSIL code are JIT-compiled to native binary code before execution. No run-time interpretation, faster execution.
.NET Common Language Runtime
To make .NET language independent, CLR (Common Language Runtime) is defined as the runtime environment.
CLR defines CTS (Common Type System) which should be followed by all languages to be used in the .NET framework.
Syntax: int, for, ..
Semantics: multiple inheritance is not allowed in CTS
The code that follows CTS standard is called managed code.
regular C++ supports multiple inheritance
managed C++ does not support multiple inheritance

CLI : Common Language Infrastructure
A specification defines an environment for multiple high-level languages to be used on different computer platforms.
Created by Microsoft based on .NET, standardized by MS, Intel, HP and others, ratified by ECMA and ISO.
.NET is an implementation of CLI for desktop systems.
.NET Compact Framework is an implementation of CLI for portable devices.
Open Source implementations: Mono development platform (Novell), Portable .NET (dotGNU)

Confirming CTS (Common Type System)
Even though, CLI/CTS/CLR can make a program written in any language to run on any platform, the entire program (including all libraries used) has to be on the platform before running.
Can we have part of a program on one computer and another part of the same program on another computer?
Distributed Computing. A program is divided into multiple parts and different parts are distribute on different computers.
e.g. virtual surgery.
.Net is Web-enabled and Distributed
To run distributed code on the web, we need a standard way to register the code and a standard way to access the code.
Registration:
UDDI Registry: Universal Description, Discovery, and Integration.
Access:
SOAP: Simple Object Access Protocol
WSDL: Web Service Description Language

Web Service Example
.NET Passport (one login for the whole Internet)
www.passport.com (run by Microsoft)
www.ubid.com (An online auction shop using Passport web service)
Windows Live (one location to get all you need from the Internet)
http://get.live.com/ (run by Microsoft)
Windows Live ID is replacing Passport ID.
.NET Framework Compositions
Common Language Runtime (CLR ): provides the runtime environment for MSIL code.
.Net Framework Class Library (FCL) : provides standard code for building common .Net applications.
Classes in FCL are grouped into namespaces.

.Net Framework Class Library
The most important groups are “the gang of four”:
• Windows Forms: for building GUIs for .Net applications, language independent.
• ASP.NET: Active Server Pages for .Net, for building web-accessible applications.
• ADO.NET: ActiveX Data Objects for .Net, for accessing data in a database.
• Enterprise Services: for accessing COM+ services (transactions, object pooling).

Applications
.NET Application Types
.Net & COM
MFC: Microsoft Foundation Class, code reuse within an application (process)
COM: Component Object Model, code reuse across applications (processes)
DCOM: Distributed COM, code reuse across systems

.NET: COM+ 2.0, all COM+ services are available in .NET, even those not in managed code, interoperable with COM-based applications
.NET My Services
Applications providing access to personal information over the Internet.

• .NET Documents (Internet-accessible storage)
• .NET Alerts (sending alert messages)
• .NET Calendar
• .NET Contacts
• .NET Wallet (payment inform)

A Common Language for the Internet• Tim Berners-Lee• ASCII text (ISO/IEC 8859-1) is platform-independent. • HTTP (Hyper Text Transport Protocol)
e.g. GET wp.html
Assembly Language for the Internet• HTML (Hyper Text Markup Language)
High-level language for the Internet)hyper text: text that describes other texttags: type definition of text in text
<title>WP</title>all tags are predefined in HTMLonly system defined types, no user defined types
Recognizable by all types of computers. (World Wide Web)
A Common Language for the Internet
XML (eXtensible Markup Language)Allow user defined tags (types)
