Chapter Summaries
Chapter 1: Introduction to Visual Studio 2008: This chapter provides a comprehensive overview of Visual Studio 2008, highlighting its advanced development tools, debugging capabilities, database functionality, and innovative features designed for rapid application creation across diverse platforms. It emphasizes enhancements in visual designers for .NET Framework 3.5, web development tools, and language improvements that accelerate development with various data types. The chapter details how Visual Studio 2008 empowers developers to build compelling, AJAX-enabled web applications, taking advantage of client-side and server-side frameworks for seamless integration with back-end data providers and modern browsers. The discussion also covers the integration of Microsoft Language Integrated Query (LINQ) for easier data analysis and manipulation, the ability to target multiple .NET Framework versions (2.0, 3.0, and 3.5) within the same environment, and the facilitation of team collaboration through improved tools for integrating database professionals and graphic designers into the development process. The chapter underscores the .NET Framework 3.5's role in creating connected applications and reducing development time by providing pre-fabricated software components. It concludes by outlining significant new features of Visual Studio 2008 such as enhanced AJAX support, improved design surfaces, LINQ integration, multi-version .NET Framework targeting, and integrated unit testing capabilities, culminating in a detailed comparison of the various editions of Visual Studio and their functionalities.
Introduction to the IDE (Visual C#): This chapter delves into the Visual C# Integrated Development Environment (IDE), explaining its collection of development tools presented through a unified user interface. It details tools common to other Visual Studio languages and those unique to Visual C#, such as the C# compiler. The chapter offers a guided tour of essential Visual C# tools within the IDE, covering various stages of the development process. It emphasizes key tools and windows like the Code Editor, C# compiler, Visual Studio debugger, Toolbox and Designer for UI creation, Solution Explorer for project management, Project Designer for configuration settings, Class View for code navigation, Properties Window for control configuration, Object Browser for viewing available methods and classes, and Document Explorer for accessing documentation. The chapter elucidates how these tools are accessible through windows, menus, property pages, and wizards within the IDE, and provides a visual representation of the basic IDE layout, explaining the functionality of the Code Editor, Windows Forms Designer, Toolbox, Solution Explorer, and Properties window, along with the method of switching between code and design views.
