Application Development Foundation - Part 1

Introduction

By using this, you'll learn how to do the following:

• Develop applications that use system types and collections.
• Implement service processes, threading, and application domains to enable application isolation and multithreading.
• Create and deploy manageable applications.
• Create classes that can be serialized to enable them to be easily stored and transferred.
• Create hardened applications that are resistant to attacks and restrict access based on user and group roles.
• Use interoperability and reflection to leverage legacy code and communicate with other applications.
• Write applications that send e-mail messages.
• Create applications that can be used in different regions with different languages.
• Draw charts and create images, and either display them as part of your application or save them to files.

Chapter 1: Framework Fundamentals

The .NET Framework is an integral Microsoft Windows component designed to support next-generation applications and services. Many fundamentals of the .NET Framework will be familiar to developers who have worked in other object-oriented development environments; however, the .NET Framework also includes many unique elements.

 

Exam objectives in this chapter:

• Manage data in a .NET Framework application by using system types.
• Implement .NET Framework interfaces to cause components to comply with standard contracts.
• Control interactions between .NET Framework application components by using events and delegates.
