| Program Detail |
: Visual Basic .Net (VB.Net) is the version of Visual Basic released with Visual Studio .Net and the .Net Framework. VB.Net differs significantly from its predecessor, Visual Basic 6.0. These differences are reflected both in the programming language itself (Visual Basic) and in the tool used to develop applications (Visual Studio). This course introduces you to VB.Net development using Visual Studio .Net and focuses on VB.Net syntax, logic constructs, and application development topics.
To emphasize the hands-on nature of the course, the instructor presents "live," in-class demonstrations of running VB.Net programs. He also guides students through the ins and outs of debugging and deploying VB.Net applications. You have the opportunity to enhance your understanding of VB.Net by developing several small VB.Net programs as homework assignments. Also reviewed are exception handling, error handling, and object cleanup and object creation. In addition, you are introduced to debugging VB.Net applications, explore system issues related to VB.Net (such as dynamic memory and garbage collection), and learn how to use VB.Net with a .Net application environment.
On completing this course you should understand and be able to develop VB.Net applications using the objects provided by the .Net Framework. You should be able to use VB.Net's character representations, type definitions, arrays, comparison operations, program control, assemblies, and namespaces. |
