www.sfkinfotech.com Sarfaraz Khan - 9763987372 Introduction to Visual Studio .

NET: Microsoft Visual Studio is an integrated development environment (IDE) from Microsoft. It can be used to develop console applications, Windows applications, Web applications, Mobile Applications, Windows / Web Services, etc using rich graphical user interface for all platforms supported by Microsoft. Visual Studio supports different programming languages by means of language services. The Most Preferred Built-in languages include VC++.NET, Visual Basic .NET, C#.NET. Support for other languages such as J#, M, Python, Perl and Ruby among others is available via language services installed separately. It also supports XML/XSLT, HTML/ XHTML, JavaScript and CSS.

What is .NET FrameWork ? The .NET Framework is a software environment responsible for the EXECUTION of code written in any of the languages supported by .NET (VB, C#, J#, VC++, etc). The .NET Framework must reside on the machine where the code is to be executed. .NET Framework, is installed as a part of Visual Studio .NET or can also be installed independently from Microsofts website. It is also in-built with Windows Operating systems. Prior to .Net: Microsoft has produced visual studio 6.0 (VB 6, C#, ASP) with classic ASP for developing web base application but there are several drawbacks in this project. Microsoft start a new project with code name Next Generation Windows Services (NGWS)

MICROSOFT .NET FRAMEWORK

Microsoft .Net framework is an integrated and managed environment for the development and execution of your code. The .Net Framework includes two main components: 1. The .Net Base Class Library. 2. The Common Language Runtime (CRL).

3 VB.Net

www.sfkinfotech.com Sarfaraz Khan - 9763987372 The .Net Base Class Library: The .Net base class library is a collection of object oriented classes and interfaces that provides object model and services for many complex programming tasks. The logical group of all these in-built classes and interfaces is called as a Namespace. i.e.: A Namespace is collection of classes. Some of the most important .Net Base Class Libraries are: System System.io System.data System.xml System.windows.form System.collections Etc. The Common Language Runtime (CRL): The Common Language Runtime (CLR) manages code at runtime. CLR as the name specifies, provides a common environment for programs written in different languages supported for .Net like VB, C#, VC++, J#, Perl, Python, etc. It offer INTEROPERABILITY between programs written in different languages i.e. An Application can have different modules written in different programming languages supported by .Net. CRL is a component divided in sub components which perform their own respective tasks. The components of CRL are: a. Common Type System (CTS): CTS is the major component of CRL. Its purpose is to provide data types conversion / consistency between different languages of .net to ensure interoperability. A subset of CTS is Common Language Specification (CLS) which also provides functionality to support interoperability. b. Just in time Compiler (JIT): When a .Net Program is compiled, an executable file is generated. This .exe file is in Microsoft Intermediate Language (MSIL). When the program is used / executed, then JIT compiler compiles only the required code, as it is visited in native (OS) form. This feature of .Net allows the programs to be Platform Independent.

4 VB.Net

www.sfkinfotech.com Sarfaraz Khan - 9763987372 As .Net has multiple languages, we require an appropriate language compiler specific for the language. All the compilers, after conversion of the source code, will generate the same type of code i.e. MSIL code which will be converted into machine code for execution. As all the .Net languages after compilation were generating the same type of code (IL). The code of one language can be consumed from any other .Net language. This Feature of .NET is Called Language Interoperability or language independency. c. Garbage Collection (GC): Garbage Collector is a background thread running with the application / CLR and is responsible for destroying all the unreferenced objects i.e. objects which are no longer in use. d. Class Loader: It is a Sub Component in CLR and is responsible for loading classes and other types as and when needed. e. Security Manager: Security Manager is a component of CLR. There are the types of security models supported in .Net: i. Code Access Security (CAS). ii. Role Based Security. iii. ASP.Net Web Application Security. The Security Manager decides whether or not a piece of code is allowed to run. It will prevent malicious code from entering your system and causing damage. f. Assemblies: An Assembly is a self describing collection of code, resource, and metadata. An Assembly manifest contains information about what is contained in the assembly like: i. Assemblys name and version number. ii. List of all the TYPES used by the program. iii. List of other assemblies, if any. iv. Security Details. Framework Versions Microsoft started development on the .NET Framework in the late 1990s originally under the name of Next Generation Windows Services (NGWS). By late 2000 the first beta versions of .NET 1.0 were released.

Exceptions are runtime error cause due to a logical error, S/W error or limitation of the hardware.

In .Net, every exception is an object of type system.exception or any of its sub classes.

When the integrity on an object is violated, an exception is raised. Exception Handling is done by providing try catch blocks. If an exception is thrown and is unhandled is an inner block then it is automatically thrown to its outer block. If an exception is unhandled, then the CLR terminated the program abruptly.

For one Try block, we can have multiple catch blocks, each for a specific exception.

Finally block may be written to execute all the necessary code to execute before exiting the program, in case of exception or no exception.

VB.NET OOPs Guide

Object Oriented Programming Structure (OOPS)

The programming in which data will be logically represented in the form of a class and physically represented in the form of an object is called as object oriented programming. OOPS has following important features:

1. Class:According to oops data must be represent in the form of class. A class can contain variables for storing the data and function to specify various operations that can perform on data. Class doesnt occupy any memory space hence its only logical representation of data. Object oriented programming features are taken from real life. In a real life a plan will be drawn before constructing any object the same is implemented in oops with the form of class. A class is like a plan or blueprint for the data of your program.

2. Data Encapsulation & Abstraction:

A Class can contain variables for storing the data and functions to specify various operations that can be performed on data. This process of wrapping of data and functions that operate on that data as a single unit in the form of class is called as data encapsulation. Advantage of encapsulation is hiding the implementation detail of class. In real life if you take CPU of system , it is encapsulation of various component like motherboard, Ram, Hard Disk and Other hardware to use the CPU no need to have the knowledge how exactly all this component are working internally the same is implemented in oops in the form of data encapsulation. Abstraction is the process hiding details of class when member of a class are declared as private when it is not possible to access them from outside the class.

23 VB.Net

www.sfkinfotech.com Sarfaraz Khan - 9763987372 Advantages of this are security in the real life all the components of CPU are enclosed in a cabinet to protect them from the dust same is implemented in oops in the form of abstraction.

Object and Instance: Object with keyword New Stack Heap

Permanent Memory

A class is a only a logical representation of data hence to work with the data represented by the class you must declare variable for the class, which is called as an object when an object is declared using the keyword new then memory will be allocated for the members of the class within the heap memory area which is called as Instance & its address will be stored in the object in stack. When an object is created without using the keyword new then instance will not be created and object in stack will contain Null. In this case its not possible to access the members of the class by using that object because the object contains Null.

Constructor
1. A constructor is a special method present under every class responsible for initializing the variable of the class. 2. A constructor is a non value returning method and will have the same name of class. 3. A constructor is mandatory under every class is the class has to execute. Note: where out C# compiler compiles the program it verifies whether the class contains the constructor in it or not. If not present the class can not execute so on behalf of the programmer the compiler takes the responsibility in defining a constructor under the program so that class can execute.

24 VB.Net

www.sfkinfotech.com Sarfaraz Khan - 9763987372 4. Constructor is special method in the class that will be automatically invoked while an instance is created for the class its main purpose is to initialize the fields available in the class while instance is created. But you can write any code that needs to be executed while an instance is created. When you are not creating constructor in the class than compiler will automatically create a default constructor that will initialize fields in the class to the default value based data type. To create a constructor in the class in the vb.net create a sub procedure in the class with the name new.

Type of constructor:

1. Default constructor: - A constructor without any parameters is called as a default constructor. A drawback of default constructor is any no of instances you create for the class, all the instances will be unitized to same value and its not possible to initialize each instance of the class to different values. 2. Parameterized Constructor: A constructor with at least one parameter is called as parameterized constructor advantage of this is each instance of the class can be initialized to deferent value. 3. Copy constructor: In parameterized constructor with a parameter of same class type is called as copy constructor. Purpose of copy constructor is to copy the values of an existence instance to the new instance. 4. Shared Constructor: You can also declare a constructor as shared but a shared constructor will be invoked only once for any once for any no of instances created for the class. A shared constructor will be invoked in any of the following situation.

1) When first instance is created for the class. 2) When you referred to a shared member in the class for the first time. Shared constructor is used to write the code thats need to be executed only once.

5. Private Constructor: Constructor can also be created as private but when there is at least ne private

25 VB.Net

www.sfkinfotech.com Sarfaraz Khan - 9763987372 constructor available in the class create an instance for the class will not be possible. Purpose of privat3e constructor is to restrict the class form being instantiate when the class contains every member as shared.

Point Related to Constructor 1. A class can have any no of constructors in the class provided they satisfy method overloading rule. 2. A class can have only one shared constructor or and shared constructed cant parameterized. 3. Constructor must be a sub-procedure and cant be a function procedure.

Destructor
Destructor is a special method in the class that will be automatically invoked while an instance of the class is destroyed. Destructor is used to write the code that needs to be executed while an instance of the class is destroyed when you are not creating a destructor in the class than compiler will not destructor automatically, to create a destructor within a class in VB.net , create sub-procedure with the name finalize that has following syntax.

Protected overrides sub finalize <Statement> End sub

By default every class in .Net is inherited from a class called as Object even your are not specifying to inherit explicitly within this object class the finalize method is overridable method and declared with the access modifier protected. Creating finalize method your calss is nothing but the overriding the finalize method of base class hence it must be declared with the keyword overrides. To make the destructor available only within the same class and its derived classes but not from outside the class it must be declared as protected.

26 VB.Net

www.sfkinfotech.com Sarfaraz Khan - 9763987372 In .Net object will not be destroyed immediately after their lifetime is expired. And they will be destroyed only when garbage collector performs garbage collection. Garbage collector will perform garbage collection only in the following two situations. 1. When there is not enough memory to create a new object. 2. When your application comes to an end.

When you dont want to wait until the garbage collector performs garbage collection then you can force the garbage collector to perform garbage collection by calling collect method of GC class. But this is not recommended as if affects the performance of the application.

Point about destructor: 1. A Class can have only one destructor. 2. Destructor must be a sub procedure cant possible to create it as function. 3. Destructor cannot be parameterized. 4. Destructor cannot be shared.

12. OOPS INHERITANCE 12.1 Inheritance:

While creating a new class if it requires same members as existing class then instead of re-creating those members you can create the new class from an existing class. This process of creating a new class from an existing class is called as inheritance.

Advantage of inheritance is code reusability. During inheritance the class that is inherited is called as base class and the class that does the inheritance is called as derived class or child class and every non private member of the base class will become the member of derive class with the same access modifier as in base class. To perform inheritance, you have to use the keyword inherits and its has the following syntax.

[Access modifier] class<class name> inherits <BaseClass_name> <Member> End class Inheritance allows you to create a new class that retains all the members and Functionalities of a previously defined class. This feature of OOP allows code reusability.

Type of Inheritance 1. Single Inheritance: The inheritance in which a single derived class is created from a single base class is called as single inheritance.

2. Hierarchical Inheritance: - The inheritance in which more than one derived class is created from a single base class is called as hierarchical inheritance.

3. Multilevel inheritance: - The inheritance in which a derived class is created from another derived class is called as multilevel inheritance.

4. Hybrid Inheritance: - The inheritance i.e. the combination of hierarchical and multilevel inheritances is called as hybrid inheritance.

5. Multiple Inheritances: - The inheritance in which a single derived class is created from multiple base classes is called as multiple inheritances.

Note: multiple inheritances not supported by .net using classes and its supported using interface. During multiple inheritance if more than one base class contain members with same signature then derived class will get more than one member with same signature, which is not actually possible overcome this problem c++ use virtual base class concept that internal requires pointers but .net doesnt support pointers and hence if cannot provide virtual base class concept and hence multiple inheritance was not supports.

13. OOPS MustInherit Class & Method Overriding

MustInherit (Abstract Classes): when a Class is Defined as Mustinherit, then an object cannot be created directly on that class, and it must have a derived class through which its member will be accessed. Method Overriding: a. Notoverridable (Default): A Method of the base class, which cannot be overridden in the derived classes. b. Overridable: A Method of the base class, that MAY have a new implementation in the derived class. c. Mustoverride: A Method of the base class, which MUST have a new implementation in the derived class. This method can only be declared in a Mustinherit class. d. Override: A Method of the base class, which overrides the method of its base class.

14. OOPS - INTERFACE

An interface is nothing but the user defined data type that can contain only declarations and not definition. Main purpose of interface is to provide contract for the class must provide definition for a set of members. To create an interface use the keyword interface that has the following syntax.

[Access modifier] interface <interface > <interface name> <Interface members> End interface

While creating an interface, consider the following points. 1) An Interface can contain only declarations and its not possible to define any member in the interface. 2) Interface cant contain field. 3) It is not possible to specify access modifier for the members of an interface and every member in interface is public by default. 4) It is not possible to declare the member of an interface as shared.

To implement interfaces in a class use the keyword implement and it has the following syntax [access modifier]classname :implements <interface1><interface2>, <member> End class

One class can implement any no of interfaces and one interface can be implemented by any no of classes. But when a class implements an interface them it must provide the definition for every member in the interface otherwise it will be a compilation error. There may be a situation where more than one interface contain a member with same signature and those interfaces are implemented in the same class. In this case to resolve the ambiguity, simple solution is rename one of those

40 VB.Net

www.sfkinfotech.com Sarfaraz Khan - 9763987372 method of class while they are defined. Even the method was rename compiler will identify to which method which interface the definition belongs based on implementa statement at the end of that method of declaration within the class. An interface is a collection of related methods and properties without implementation. An interface is a point of contact with an object. An interface is equal to a Mustinherit Class with all members declared as Mustoverride. We can implements multiple inheritance and multilevel inheritance with the help of interfaces.

15. OOPS - METHOD OVERLOADING

Methods are procedures that contain application logic. Methods in VB.NET can be either:

1. Sub Procedures 2. Functions

A Method created with sub does not return a value. A Method create with function must return a value.

Parameters to methods are declared as Byval by default, but it may also be ByRef.

ADO.NET DISCONNECTED MODEL

DataSet: The Dataset is the Central Component in ADO.Net Disconnected Data Access Architecture. The ADO.Net Architecture uses Dataset Object for in-memory representation of data i.e.: A Local Copy of the Data from in Database in the Application (Front End). Once the Dataset is Populated, Accessing the data in the Dataset does not require interaction with the database, and changes to data in the dataset have no effect on the database, until the changes are updated with the Database. Hence, this is called as ADO.Net Disconnected Model. A DataSet is Like a Collection of Tables in Front End, as it may contain multiple Tables, each of which will have a collection of Columns and Rows. A DataSet May Also Contain Integrity Constraints and Relationships. DataAdapter: A DataAdapter is responsible for moving the Data between the Datasource (Database) and the DataSet (Application / Front End). The DataAdapter incorporates the functionality required to Retrieve Data, Populate DataSet & Perform Updates of the Database. Some of the Important Properties of a DataAdapter are SELECTCOMMAND, CONNECT & Important Methods are FILL, UPDATE. You Can Populate the DataSet by calling the DataAdapter.Fill() Method, which will execute the instructions contained in the DataAdapter.SelectCommand Property over the connections specified by the DataAdapter.Connection Property. If The Changes Made to the Data in DataSet is to be reflected in the Database, then the DataAdapter.Update Method may be called. To Update the Database with the changes made to the DataSet, the DataAdapter by itself cannot generate the SQL statements required for the Database. To Automatically Generate the SQL statements, we may use SQLCOMMANDBUILDER.

Crystal Reports
Crystal Report is a business intelligence application used to design and generate report from a wide range of data sources. Several other application, such as Microsoft Visual Studio, bundle an OEM version of Crystal Report as a general purpose reporting tool, Crystal Reports became the de facto standard report writer when Microsoft Released it with Visual Studio.

The product was originally created by Crystal Services Inc. as Quick Reports when they couldnt find a suitable commercial report writer for their accounting software. After producing version 1.0 through 3.0, the company was acquired in 1994 by Seagate Technology. Crystal Services was combined with Holostic Systems to form the Information Management Group of Seagate Software, which later rebranded as Crystal Decision, and produced version 4.0 through 9.0. Crsytal Decision was acquired in December 2003 by Business Objects, which has so far produced version 10, 11(XI) and the current verison 12.

81 VB.Net

www.sfkinfotech.com Sarfaraz Khan - 9763987372 Business Objects was acquired by SAP on OCT 8, 2007. If we want to add a report under a .Net project open Add New Item window & select Reporting in LHS panel, then select Crystal Report from RHS panel, which adds a Report file, with an extension .rpt. A report when opened has 5 section in it: 1. Report Header 2. Page Header 4. Report Footer 5. Page Footer 3. Details

Report Header: Content placed under this section gets displayed at top of the report i..e on top of the first page in report e.g.: Company Name, Address etc. Page Header: Content placed under this section gets displayed at top of every page in to which the report extends. e.g.: Column Names, Date, Time etc. Details: Contents into this section generally comes from the DB; this is the actual information that has to be presented to clients. Report Footer: this is same as Report Header but gets displayed at bottom of report e.g.: Signatures, Date & Place. Page Footer: this is same as Page Header but gets displayed at bottom of every page into which the report extends. e.g.: Page Nos Creating a Report: open a new project of type Windows, name it ReportProject, open add new item window, select Reporting on LHS, choose Crystal Report on RHS, name the report as Sample.rpt, choose blank report option, click OK. As the report has to get its information from DB first we need to configure the report with appropriate data source using the Field Explorer window that getds added along with Report (Shorcut:Ctrl+Alt+T).

Configuring the Report with DB: Open the field explorer, right click on DB Field Node, select Database Expert list of providers, choose Microsoft OLEDB Provider for Sql Server, click next, specify the connection details like server name, user id, password & DB, click Finish which adds a node under OLEDB(ADO), expand the nodes below: CSharp, dbo, Tables, double click on the table we want to consume, e.g.: Customer, adds table under selected tables list, click ok, adds selected table under DB fields node of Field Explorer.

82 VB.Net

Designing the Report: go into Report Header Section right click in it and select Insert Text Object that adds an object like a Label, enter content in it & do required alignment using the format toolbar on top.

Goto Page Header section right click on it & Select Insert -> Special Field -> DataDate, place it on LHS of the section, right click on it select format object and choose the format in which we want to display the date, in the same way select DataTime & place it on RHS.

Now open Field Explorer and expand the table Customer we have selected, that displays the list of columns below, drag and drop each column on to details section as per your design which will create 1 field on the Page Header (Column Name) and 1 Field on the Details(Data).

Now go to Report Footer & Provider the option for users to enter Date, Place and Signature using the Text Objects and Insert Line Options.

Now go the Page Footer section right click Insert -> Special Field -> select Page Number and place it on the Center of the section.

Launching the Report: to display a report we need to use the control CrystalReportViewer that has to be placed on Form which will be default use Dock property as Fill. If we want to show a report under the control first it has to be loaded into the app from its physical location.

Place a CrystalReportViewer control on form and write the following code: Under Form Load: crystalReportViewer1.ReportSource=<path of report>; Note: To get path of your report goto Solution Explorer, right click on crystal report file & select properties, copy value under FullPath property and use it.
