    NET Framework

    .NET – What Is It?
    • Software platform
    • Language neutral
    • In other words:
    .NET is not a language (Runtime and a library for
    writing and executing written programs in any
    compliant language)
    What Is .NET
    • .Net is a new framework for developing
    web-based and windows-based applications
    within the Microsoft environment.
    • The framework offers a fundamental shift in
    Microsoft strategy: it moves application
    development from client-centric to server-
    centric.
    .NET – What Is It?

    .NET Application

    .NET Framework

    Operating System + Hardware


    Framework, Languages, And Tools

    VB VC++ VC# JScript …

    Common Language Specification

    Visual Studio.NET
    ASP.NET: Web Services Windows
    and Web Forms Forms

    ADO.NET: Data and XML

    Base Class Library

    Common Language Runtime


    The .NET Framework
    .NET Framework Services
    • Common Language Runtime
    • Windows® Forms
    • ASP.NET
    – Web Forms
    – Web Services
    • ADO.NET, evolution of ADO
    • Visual Studio.NET
    Common Language Runtime
    (CLR)
    •CLR works like a virtual machine in executing
    all languages.
    •All .NET languages must obey the rules and
    standards imposed by CLR. Examples:
    – Object declaration, creation and use
    – Data types,language libraries
    – Error and exception handling
    – Interactive Development Environment (IDE)
    Common Language Runtime
    • Development
    – Mixed language applications
    • Common Language Specification (CLS)
    • Common Type System (CTS)
    • Standard class framework
    • Automatic memory management
    – Consistent error handling and safer execution
    – Potentially multi-platform
    • Deployment
    – Removal of registration dependency
    – Safety – fewer versioning problems
    Common Language Runtime
    Multiple Language Support
    • CTS is a rich type system built into the CLR
    – Implements various types (int, double, etc)
    – And operations on those types
    • CLS is a set of specifications that language
    and library designers need to follow
    – This will ensure interoperability between
    languages
    Compilation in .NET
    Code in another
    Code in VB.NET Code in C#
    .NET Language

    Appropriate
    VB.NET compiler C# compiler
    Compiler

    IL(Intermediate
    Language) code

    CLR just-in-time
    execution
    Intermediate Language (IL)
    • .NET languages are not compiled to machine code. They
    are compiled to an Intermediate Language (IL).

    • CLR accepts the IL code and recompiles it to machine


    code. The recompilation is just-in-time (JIT) meaning it is
    done as soon as a function or subroutine is called.

    • The JIT code stays in memory for subsequent calls. In


    cases where there is not enough memory it is discarded
    thus making JIT process interpretive.
    Languages
    • Languages provided by MS
    – VB, C++, C#, J#, JScript
    • Third-parties are building
    – APL, COBOL, Pascal, Eiffel, Haskell, ML,
    Oberon, Perl, Python, Scheme, Smalltalk…
    Windows Forms
    • Framework for Building Rich Clients
    – RAD (Rapid Application Development)
    – Rich set of controls
    – Data aware
    – ActiveX® Support
    – Licensing
    – Accessibility
    – Printing support
    – Unicode support
    – UI inheritance
    ASP.NET
    •ASP.NET,the platform services that allow to program
    Web Applications and Web Services in any .NET
    language

    •ASP.NET Uses .NET languages to generate HTML


    pages. HTML page is targeted to the capabilities of the
    requesting Browser

    •ASP.NET “Program” is compiled into a .NET class and


    cached the first time it is called. All subsequent calls use
    the cached version.
    ASP.NET

    • Logical Evolution of ASP


    – Supports multiple languages
    – Improved performance
    – Control-based, event-driven execution model
    – More productive
    – Cleanly encapsulated functionality
    ASP.NET Web Forms
    • Allows clean cut code
    – Code-behind Web Forms
    • Easier for tools to generate
    • Code within is compiled then executed
    • Improved handling of state information
    • Support for ASP.NET server controls
    – Data validation
    – Data bound grids
    ASP.NET Web Services

    • A technical definition
    – “A programmable application component accessible
    via standard Web protocols”
    Web Services
    • It is just an application…
    • …that exposes its features and capabilities
    over the network…
    • …using XML…
    • …to allow for the creation of powerful new
    applications that are more than the sum of
    their parts…
    ADO.NET
    (Data and XML)
    • New objects (e.g., DataSets)
    • Separates connected / disconnected issues
    • Language neutral data access
    • Uses same types as CLR
    • Great support for XML
    Visual Studio.NET
    • Development tool that contains a rich set of
    productivity and debugging features

    Summary
    • The .NET Framework
    – Dramatically simplifies development and deployment
    – Provides robust and secure execution environment
    – Supports multiple programming languages
    Comparison between
    J2EE and .NET
    Comparison between J2EE and .NET Architectures
    J2EE and .NET
    Execution Engine
     J2EE
    Java source code compiles into machine-independent byte code
    Runtime Environment : JVM
     .NET
    Any compliant language compiles into MSIL
    Runtime environment : CLR

    Both JVM and CLR ,support services, such as code verification,


    memory management via garbage collection, and code security
    J2EE and .NET
    Cross Platform Portability

     J2EE
    Platform Independent
    JDK should exist on target machine
     .NET
    Supports Windows platform
    CLR should exist on target machine
    Can support other platforms provided it has its own JIT
    complier
    J2EE and .NET
    Language Support

     J2EE
    Tied to Java
    Supports other languages via interface technology
     .NET
    Language independent
    Supports any language if mapping exists from that
    language to IL
    J2EE and .NET
    Tools Support
     J2EE
    Can employ any number of tools
    Pro :Developer has a great deal of choice
    Con :Difficulty in choosing a right tool for a given
    job

     .NET
    Visual Studio.NET, single IDE for building an
    application
