Microsoft Visual Studio 2008

Posted by Administrator on Saturday, June 25, 2011

        Microsoft Visual Studio (VS) is an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) from Microsoft Cooperation. It can be used to develop various kinds of applications using Microsoft .Net Framework for the platforms supported by Microsoft. Those platforms are Microsoft Windows, Windows Mobile, and Windows CE. Using VS, we can develop console and graphical user interface (GUI) applications. Console applications are the applications running on windows terminal. And GUI applications are the applications which have rich user interface such as Windows Forms applications, web sites, web applications and web services.


Microsoft Visual Studio 2008


        Visual Studio makes the development process easier and faster. It includes a code editor on which developers can write source codes of the applications. It supports intelliSense as well as code refactoring. It has an inbuilt debugger. Using that, developers can debug .Net applications. Visual Studio has other inbuilt tools. It includes a forms designer for building GUI applications, web designer, class designer and database schema designer. So that developers can build rich applications without doing huge amount of coding. We can create plug-ins for the Visual Studio to enhance the functionality of the tool. It supports for source-control systems (like Subversion and Visual SourceSafe) so that many developers can work in a same project.
Here are the most important and useful Visual Studio 2008 features.

IntelliSense
Code Snippets
Revision Marks
Designer Improvements
XML Support
Refactoring
Partial Classes
Debugging
Other IDE Improvements

Because of those features Visual Studio 2008 becomes one of the main Integrated Development Environment for developing .Net applications.

Installing Visual Studio 2008

Posted by Administrator on

This Article will explain how to install Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 and If you like you can use the latest version Microsoft Visual Studio 2010.

To install Visual Studio 2008, You need the software. But Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 is a commercial product. But they provide the free version of it. It is called Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 Express Edition. You can download the latest version here.

Or you can find any commercial version of  Microsoft Visual Studio 2008. And the following video will demonstrate you how to install it on your computer.  



Now you have successfully installed Microsoft Visual Studio 2008. The development environment is now set.
Then we have to start learning C#. Go through the tutorials and become a C# hero.

Introduction to C# Programming Language

Posted by Administrator on

                 C# (C Sharp) is a modern and most popular programming language developed by the Microsoft Cooperation.  Using C# programming language you can develop most efficient software applications such as

  • Standalone Desktop Applications
  • Web Applications
  • Mobile Applications
And C# is syntactically similar with the programming language called java. If you familiar with java, you can learn C# very easily. But no matter, if you are a beginner, you can also learn the concepts of C# easily and become a good C# developer.

C# is an Object Oriented programming language that is working with Microsoft .Net framework. So if you are a beginner you should know about Microsoft .Net framework and their functionality which will be discussed in the coming tutorials.

Why C#?

Why you should choose C# over other programming languages?, that is because C# is the simplest programming language to learn as a beginner. And it is modern and most of modern popular software applications are written using C#. And It is object oriented so programming is made easy. C# is powerful and flexible language which contains less number of language key words. So as a beginner, It is very efficient to know such kind of programming language like C#.

So let's learn C#. Before learning C# we have to prepare environment for developing C# applications.
  1. Install Microsoft .Net Framework
  2. Install Visual Studio 2008 (That is the development environment used to develop C# applications)
We will describe those things later. Now we setup development environment and go for further details. So first install Microsoft .Net Framework and then  Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 or 2010 and start learning C#.
