This document provides an overview of how to deploy an ASP.NET web application to a production web server. It discusses key concepts like virtual directories, application pools, and authentication. The steps described are to configure a virtual directory in IIS Manager pointing to the application files, select an application pool, and optionally use tools like the ASP.NET compiler or Visual Studio's publish/copy website features to deploy the application with minimal additional configuration.
Ajax allows for more responsive web applications by enabling asynchronous partial page updates without reloading the entire page. The key aspects covered are using UpdatePanels to wrap content and enable asynchronous refreshing of specific regions, triggers to control which controls cause updates, and progress notifications. The document also discusses using timers to enable automatic refreshing and an overview of the ASP.NET AJAX Control Toolkit which provides additional controls.
Caching stores frequently accessed data in memory for quick retrieval. There are two main types of caching in ASP.NET - output caching which stores entire page outputs to avoid re-rendering, and data caching which stores costly-to-generate data like database query results. Caching can improve performance but cached data may become outdated, so ASP.NET supports cache dependencies to automatically remove cached items when underlying data changes.
The document describes the database tables for a job board website called Next Step Job Board. The Jobs table stores job listing information including the job ID, title, description, company, location and date. The UserJobs table tracks which jobs users have applied to by linking their username to job IDs. A Job_Category table lists different career categories by category ID and name. The website contains pages for job administration, searching jobs, tracking user jobs, login and registration.
Forms authentication involves setting authentication mode to forms in web.config, restricting anonymous access, and creating a login page. Windows authentication uses Windows accounts, setting authentication mode to Windows and disabling anonymous access. Both involve authorizing users and checking roles.
This document provides an overview of XML including:
- XML uses elements to identify any type of data, while HTML uses elements for formatting.
- XML documents must start with an XML declaration and elements are composed of start and end tags with content in between.
- .NET provides classes for reading, writing, manipulating, and validating XML documents. This includes XmlTextReader/Writer for file access and XDocument for in-memory objects.
- XML schemas define rules for elements, attributes, structure and data types to validate XML documents. Namespaces uniquely identify related elements.
The document discusses .NET classes for retrieving file system information and performing operations like copying files and creating directories. It describes the Directory, File, DirectoryInfo, FileInfo, and DriveInfo classes, as well as the Path class. It also covers reading and writing files with streams, and using the FileUpload control to upload files from a web form.
The document discusses three advanced ASP.NET controls - GridView, DetailsView, and FormView - that allow binding tables of data. GridView is for large tables, DetailsView and FormView show single records and support editing. It provides code examples for configuring these controls, binding them to data sources, handling events, and implementing features like sorting, paging, selection and editing.
This document outlines a website assignment for week 3 that involves creating a master page with a header image and footer, along with navigation controls. The assignment requires 3 content pages: a home page with a greeting card, a data access page to add, modify, delete and update records, and a data binding page for record editing.
Data binding allows you to populate HTML elements and controls directly from a data source. There are two main types: single-value binding for individual elements, and repeated-value binding for lists. Data source controls simplify data binding by connecting directly to a data source without writing data access code. You can bind rich controls like GridView to display multiple fields from the data source.
The document discusses database concepts and how to access and manage data in a database using Visual Studio and ADO.NET. It covers topics like understanding relational databases and the SQL language, configuring databases in Visual Studio, using direct and disconnected data access methods, and key ADO.NET classes and namespaces for connecting to and interacting with data.
ASP.NET includes tools for defining site navigation structures using XML sitemaps. An XmlSiteMapProvider retrieves sitemap data from an XML file and creates a SiteMap object. Navigation controls like TreeView and Menu are bound to a SiteMapDataSource to display the navigation structure to users. URL mapping and routing allow mapping multiple URLs to the same page content.
This document discusses various style and layout techniques in Visual Studio, including styles, style sheets, themes, and master pages. It explains how to create and apply styles, style sheets, and themes to control formatting. It also covers using master pages to define common page elements and content regions for reuse across pages, and how to divide pages into sections using HTML tables or CSS positioning with style-based layouts.
A user control allows grouping common functionality into reusable components. It contains ASP.NET controls and code encapsulated in an .ascx file. User controls can have independent or integrated behavior and interact with hosting pages. Events allow passing information between controls and pages. Custom EventArgs classes enable conveying additional event data like URLs. Graphics can be dynamically generated using GDI+ by creating bitmaps and graphics contexts.
Rich controls in ASP.NET allow creating complex user interfaces without writing HTML. The document describes the Calendar, AdRotator, MultiView and Wizard controls. The Calendar displays a calendar that can be programmed as a single object. The AdRotator randomly displays ads. The MultiView shows one view at a time. The Wizard represents a linear or nonlinear multi-step process.
This document contains a 10 question C# and ASP.NET test paper with questions about inheritance, the .NET class hierarchy, delegates, page lifecycle methods, StringBuilder advantages over String, the Common Language Runtime (CLR), the namespace for web pages, the purpose of Global.asax, the three sections of the web.config file, and setting a cookie with string information. The test is out of a total of 20 marks.
Validation in ASP.NET ensures that user-entered data meets defined formats and criteria. There are five validator controls that check for specific errors, like missing required fields or invalid data types. All validators inherit properties from the BaseValidator class and can be configured to display error messages and enable client-side validation. Regular expression validators check input against patterns. Validation controls can be grouped and their errors displayed in a summary for the user to easily see and correct mistakes. Manual validation is also possible by disabling the controls and writing custom validation logic.
The document discusses session state configuration in ASP.NET, including the different session state modes (InProc, StateServer, SQLServer, Custom), how to configure session state through the web.config file, and an overview of choices for state management.
The document discusses various techniques for maintaining state in ASP.NET applications including view state, cookies, query strings, session state, and cross-page posting. View state stores information on the client in a hidden form field, while cookies, query strings, and session state store data on the server. Cookies and session state allow retaining data across requests, while view state and query strings only persist during a single request. Session state is more secure and can store complex objects, while other techniques have limitations like size or visibility of data.
The document discusses exceptions in .NET programming. It explains that exceptions are error conditions that occur during execution and can be caught and handled in code. The .NET Framework includes many predefined exception classes and developers can create custom exception classes. Exception handling blocks use try, catch, and finally keywords to catch exceptions at different levels and log or report errors to help debug problems.
This document discusses ASP.NET web controls, including their basic properties and events. It describes how controls inherit from the WebControl base class and how to set common properties like background color, font, and size. It also covers list controls, table controls, and how postbacks and the page lifecycle work when an event like a button click occurs.
This document provides an overview of ASP.NET applications, including common file types like .aspx and .ascx pages, application directories, server controls, and the Page class. It also discusses application configuration using the web.config file and global application events handled in global.asax. Each ASP.NET application runs isolated in its own application domain with separate resources.
This document defines a Book class with properties like title, author, price, etc. and a BookDB class to store and manage a list of Book objects. BookDB can add books, print details of paperback books or all books. It calculates stats like average price of paperbacks. The Program class adds sample books, assigns handler methods to a book's editions property and calls its ShowEditions method to display the added editions.

This C# code defines a Parent class with a constructor that prints a message and assigns a string property. It also defines a print method. A Child class inherits from Parent, overrides the print method to call the parent version and add its own message, and defines a constructor that calls the parent constructor and passes a string. The Main method creates a Child object, calls its print method, and casts it to a Parent to call the parent print method.
The document provides an introduction and overview of the C# programming language. It covers topics such as types, expressions, declarations, classes, structs, namespaces, assemblies, attributes, threads, and XML comments. It compares C# to languages like Java and C++, and outlines new features in C# like reference and output parameters, objects on the stack, rectangular arrays, and generics. It also provides a basic "Hello World" example and discusses how C# programs are typically structured across multiple files.
The document provides instructions for two coding assignments. The first asks to create a base Parent class and derived Child class with constructors and methods, and test them by creating objects and calling their print methods. The second asks to create Book and BookDB classes, where Book has member variables for a book and BookDB maintains a list of books, and a test class to add books and print paperback titles with their average price.
The document contains questions and answers about various C# concepts. Key points covered include:
- C# supports single inheritance through the colon syntax but not multiple inheritance. Interfaces can be used instead.
- Private class variables are inherited but not accessible in derived classes. Protected internal variables are accessible to derived classes in the same assembly.
- When overriding a method, the signature must remain the same but the virtual keyword changes to override. Private and static methods cannot be overridden.
- Abstract classes cannot be instantiated and derived classes must implement abstract methods. Interfaces contain only public abstract methods that must be implemented.
- String is immutable while StringBuilder allows mutable string operations. Namespaces group related
