Design Goals of C#
The Big Ideas
 The first “Component Oriented”
language in the C/C++ family
 Everything really is an object
 Next generation robust and
durable software
 Preserving your investment
Design Goals of C#
A Component Oriented Language
 C# is the first “Component Oriented”
language in the C/C++ family
 Component concepts are first class
 Properties, methods, events
 Design-time and run-time attributes
 Integrated documentation using XML
 Enables one-stop programming
 No external files like header files, IDL, etc.
 Can be embedded in ASP pages
Design Goals of C#
Everything Really Is an Object
 Traditional views
 C++, Java™: Primitive types are “magic”
and do not interoperate with objects
 Smalltalk, Lisp: Primitive types are
objects, but at great performance cost
 C# unifies with no performance cost
 Deep simplicity throughout system
 Improved extensibility and reusability
 New primitive types: Decimal, SQL…
 Collections, etc., work for all types
Design Goals of C#
Robust and Durable Software
 Garbage collection
 No memory leaks and stray pointers
 Exceptions
 Error handling is not an afterthought
 Type-safety
 No uninitialized variables, unsafe casts
 Versioning
 Pervasive versioning considerations in all
aspects of language design
Design Goals of C#
Preserving Your Investment
 C++ Heritage
 Namespaces, enums, pointers (in unsafe
code), unsigned types, etc.
 No unnecessary sacrifices
 Real-world useful constructs
 foreach, using, switch on string
 decimal type for financial applications
 ref and out parameters
 Millions of lines of C# code in .NET
 Short learning curve
 Increased productivity
Design Goals of C#
Interoperability
C#
VB.NET
MC++
JScript
...
.NET Languages
COM
OLE Automation
XML/SOAP
Dynamic Link Libraries
P/Invoke and unsafe code
Agenda
 Hello World
 The .NET Framework
 Design Goals of C#
 Language Features
Language Features
Program Structure
 Namespaces
 Contain types and other namespaces
 Type declarations
 Classes, structs, interfaces, enums,
and delegates
 Members
 Constants, fields, methods, properties, indexers,
events, operators, constructors, destructors
 Organization
 No header files, code written “in-line”
 No declaration order dependence
Language Features
Program Structure
using System;
namespace System.Collections
{
public class Stack
{
Entry top;
public void Push(object data) {
top = new Entry(top, data);
}
public object Pop() {
if (top == null) throw new InvalidOperationException();
object result = top.data;
top = top.next;
return result;
}
}
}
Language Features
Type System
 Value types
 Directly contain data
 Cannot be null
 Reference types
 Contain references to objects
 May be null
int i = 123;
string s = "Hello world";
123i
s "Hello world"
Language Features
Type System
 Value types
 Primitives int i;
 Enums enum State { Off, On }
 Structs struct Point { int x, y; }
 Reference types
 Classes class Foo: Bar, IFoo {...}
 Interfaces interface IFoo: IBar {...}
 Arrays string[] a = new string[10];
 Delegates delegate void Empty();
Language Features
Predefined Types
 C# predefined types
 Reference object, string
 Signed sbyte, short, int, long
 Unsigned byte, ushort, uint, ulong
 Character char
 Floating-point float, double, decimal
 Logical bool
 Predefined types are simply aliases for
system-provided types
 For example, int = System.Int32
Language Features
Classes
 Single inheritance
 Multiple interface implementation
 Class members
 Constants, fields, methods,
properties, indexers, events,
operators, constructors, destructors
 Static and instance members
 Nested types
 Member access
 Public, protected, internal, private
Language Features
Structs
 Like classes, except
 Stored in-line, not heap allocated
 Assignment copies data, not reference
 No inheritance
 Ideal for light weight objects
 Complex, point, rectangle, color
 int, float, double, etc., are all structs
 Benefits
 No heap allocation, less GC pressure
 More efficient use of memory
Language Features
Classes and Structs
struct SPoint { int x, y; ... }
class CPoint { int x, y; ... }
SPoint sp = new SPoint(10, 20);
CPoint cp = new CPoint(10, 20);
10
20
sp
cp
10
20
CPoint
Language Features
Interfaces
 Multiple inheritance
 Can contain methods, properties,
indexers and events
 Private interface implementations
interface IDataBound
{
void Bind(IDataBinder binder);
}
class EditBox: Control, IDataBound
{
void IDataBound.Bind(IDataBinder binder) {...}
}
Language Features
Enums
 Strongly typed
 No implicit conversions to/from int
 Operators: +, -, ++, --, &, |, ^, ~
 Can specify underlying type
 Byte, short, int, long
enum Color: byte
{
Red = 1,
Green = 2,
Blue = 4,
Black = 0,
White = Red | Green | Blue,
}
Language Features
Delegates
 Object oriented function pointers
 Multiple receivers
 Each delegate has an invocation list
 Thread-safe + and - operations
 Foundation for framework events
delegate void MouseEvent(int x, int y);
delegate double Func(double x);
Func func = new Func(Math.Sin);
double x = func(1.0);
Language Features
Unified Type System
 Everything is an object
 All types ultimately inherit from object
 Any piece of data can be stored,
transported, and manipulated with no
extra work
Stream
MemoryStream FileStream
Hashtable doubleint
object
Language Features
Unified Type System
 Boxing
 Allocates box, copies value into it
 Unboxing
 Checks type of box, copies value out
int i = 123;
object o = i;
int j = (int)o;
123i
o
123
System.Int32
123j
Language Features
Unified Type System
 Benefits
 Eliminates “wrapper classes”
 Collection classes work with all types
 Replaces OLE Automation's Variant
 Lots of examples in .NET framework
string s = string.Format(
"Your total was {0} on {1}", total, date);
ArrayList al = new ArrayList();
al.Add( new Customer() );
al.Add( 1 );
al.Add( "test" );
Language Features
Component Development
 What defines a component?
 Properties, methods, events
 Integrated help and documentation
 Design-time information
 C# has first class support
 Not naming patterns, adapters, etc.
 Not external files
 Components are easy to build and
to consume
Language Features
Properties
 Properties Are “Smart Fields”
 Natural syntax, accessors, inlining
public class Button: Control
{
private string caption;
public string Caption {
get {
return caption;
}
set {
caption = value;
Repaint();
}
}
}
Button b = new Button();
b.Caption = "OK";
String s = b.Caption;
Language Features
Indexers
 Indexers are “smart arrays”
 Can be overloaded
public class ListBox: Control
{
private string[] items;
public string this[int
index] {
get {
return items[index];
}
set {
items[index] = value;
Repaint();
}
}
}
ListBox listBox = new
ListBox();
listBox[0] = "hello";
Console.WriteLine(listBox[0]);
Language Features
Creating and Firing an Event
 Define the Event signature
 Define the Event and firing logic
public delegate void EventHandler(object sender,
EventArgs e);
public class Button
{
public event EventHandler Click;
protected void OnClick(EventArgs e) {
if (Click != null) Click(this, e);
}
}
Language Features
Handling an Event
 Define and register Event Handler
public class MyForm: Form
{
Button okButton;
public MyForm() {
okButton = new Button(...);
okButton.Caption = "OK";
okButton.Click += new EventHandler(OkButtonClick);
}
void OkButtonClick(object sender, EventArgs e) {
ShowMessage("You pressed the OK button");
}
}

 No fall-through, “goto case” or “goto default”
 Goto can’t jump into blocks
 Foreach statement
 Checked and
unchecked
statements
 Expression
statements

out_label:
Language Features
For Each Statement
 Iteration of arrays
 Iteration of user-defined collections
foreach (Customer c in customers.OrderBy("name")) {
if (c.Orders.Count != 0) {
...
}
}
public static void Main(string[] args) {
foreach (string s in args) Console.WriteLine(s);
}
Language Features
Parameter Arrays
 Can write “printf” style methods
 Type-safe, unlike C++
void printf(string fmt, params object[] args) {
foreach (object x in args) {
...
}
}
printf("%s %i %i", str, int1, int2);
object[] args = new object[3];
args[0] = str;
args[1] = int1;
Args[2] = int2;
printf("%s %i %i", args);
Language Features
Operator Overloading
 First class user-defined data types
 Used in base class library
 Decimal, DateTime, TimeSpan
 Used in the framework
 Unit, point, rectangle
 Used in SQL integration
 SQLString, SQLInt16, SQLInt32,
SQLInt64, SQLBool, SQLMoney,
SQLNumeric, SQLFloat…
Language Features
Operator Overloading
public struct DBInt
{
public static readonly DBInt Null = new DBInt();
private int value;
private bool defined;
public bool IsNull { get { return !defined; } }
public static DBInt operator +(DBInt x, DBInt y)
{...}
public static implicit operator DBInt(int x) {...}
public static explicit operator int(DBInt x) {...}
}
DBInt x = 123;
DBInt y = DBInt.Null;
DBInt z = x + y;
Language Features
Versioning
 Overlooked in most languages
 C++ and Java produce fragile base classes
 Users unable to express versioning intent
 C# allows intent to be expressed
 Methods are not virtual by default
 C# keywords “virtual”, “override” and
“new” provide context
 C# can't guarantee versioning
 Can enable (e.g., explicit override)
 Can encourage (e.g., smart defaults)
class Derived: Base // version 1
{
public virtual void Foo() {
Console.WriteLine("Derived.Foo");
}
}
class Derived: Base // version 2a
{
new public virtual void Foo() {
Console.WriteLine("Derived.Foo");
}
}
class Derived: Base // version 2b
{
public override void Foo() {
base.Foo();
Console.WriteLine("Derived.Foo");
}
}
class Base // version 1
{
}
class Base // version 2
{
public virtual void Foo() {
Console.WriteLine("Base.Foo");
}
}
Language Features
Versioning
Language Features
Conditional Compilation
 #define, #undef
 #if, #elif, #else, #endif
 Simple boolean logic
 Conditional methods
public class Debug
{
[Conditional("Debug")]
public static void Assert(bool cond, String s) {
if (!cond) {
throw new AssertionException(s);
}
}
}
Language Features
Unsafe Code
 COM integration, P/invoke cover most cases
 Unsafe code
 Low-level code without leaving the box
 Enables unsafe casts, pointer arithmetic
 Declarative pinning
 Fixed statement
 Basically “inline C”
unsafe void Foo() {
char* buf = stackalloc char[256];
for (char* p = buf; p < buf + 256; p++) *p = 0;
...
}
Language Features
Unsafe Code
class FileStream: Stream
{
int handle;
public unsafe int Read(byte[] buffer, int index, int
count) {
int n = 0;
fixed (byte* p = buffer) {
ReadFile(handle, p + index, count, &n, null);
}
return n;
}
[dllimport("kernel32", SetLastError=true)]
static extern unsafe bool ReadFile(int hFile,
void* lpBuffer, int nBytesToRead,
int* nBytesRead, Overlapped* lpOverlapped);
}
Language Features
COM Support
 .Net framework provides great
COM support
 TLBIMP imports existing COM classes
 TLBEXP exports .NET types

Language Features Program Structure  Namespaces  Contain types and other namespaces  Type declarations  Classes, structs, interfaces, enums, and delegates  Members  Constants, fields, methods, properties, indexers, events, operators, constructors, destructors  Organization  No header files, code written “in-line”  No declaration order dependence
  • 24. Language Features Program Structure using System; namespace System.Collections { public class Stack { Entry top; public void Push(object data) { top = new Entry(top, data); } public object Pop() { if (top == null) throw new InvalidOperationException(); object result = top.data; top = top.next; return result; } } }
  • 25. Language Features Type System  Value types  Directly contain data  Cannot be null  Reference types  Contain references to objects  May be null int i = 123; string s = "Hello world"; 123i s "Hello world"
  • 26. Language Features Type System  Value types  Primitives int i;  Enums enum State { Off, On }  Structs struct Point { int x, y; }  Reference types  Classes class Foo: Bar, IFoo {...}  Interfaces interface IFoo: IBar {...}  Arrays string[] a = new string[10];  Delegates delegate void Empty();
  • 27. Language Features Predefined Types  C# predefined types  Reference object, string  Signed sbyte, short, int, long  Unsigned byte, ushort, uint, ulong  Character char  Floating-point float, double, decimal  Logical bool  Predefined types are simply aliases for system-provided types  For example, int = System.Int32
  • 28. Language Features Classes  Single inheritance  Multiple interface implementation  Class members  Constants, fields, methods, properties, indexers, events, operators, constructors, destructors  Static and instance members  Nested types  Member access  Public, protected, internal, private
  • 29. Language Features Structs  Like classes, except  Stored in-line, not heap allocated  Assignment copies data, not reference  No inheritance  Ideal for light weight objects  Complex, point, rectangle, color  int, float, double, etc., are all structs  Benefits  No heap allocation, less GC pressure  More efficient use of memory
  • 30. Language Features Classes and Structs struct SPoint { int x, y; ... } class CPoint { int x, y; ... } SPoint sp = new SPoint(10, 20); CPoint cp = new CPoint(10, 20); 10 20 sp cp 10 20 CPoint
  • 31. Language Features Interfaces  Multiple inheritance  Can contain methods, properties, indexers and events  Private interface implementations interface IDataBound { void Bind(IDataBinder binder); } class EditBox: Control, IDataBound { void IDataBound.Bind(IDataBinder binder) {...} }
  • 32. Language Features Enums  Strongly typed  No implicit conversions to/from int  Operators: +, -, ++, --, &, |, ^, ~  Can specify underlying type  Byte, short, int, long enum Color: byte { Red = 1, Green = 2, Blue = 4, Black = 0, White = Red | Green | Blue, }
  • 33. Language Features Delegates  Object oriented function pointers  Multiple receivers  Each delegate has an invocation list  Thread-safe + and - operations  Foundation for framework events delegate void MouseEvent(int x, int y); delegate double Func(double x); Func func = new Func(Math.Sin); double x = func(1.0);
  • 34. Language Features Unified Type System  Everything is an object  All types ultimately inherit from object  Any piece of data can be stored, transported, and manipulated with no extra work Stream MemoryStream FileStream Hashtable doubleint object
  • 35. Language Features Unified Type System  Boxing  Allocates box, copies value into it  Unboxing  Checks type of box, copies value out int i = 123; object o = i; int j = (int)o; 123i o 123 System.Int32 123j
  • 36. Language Features Unified Type System  Benefits  Eliminates “wrapper classes”  Collection classes work with all types  Replaces OLE Automation's Variant  Lots of examples in .NET framework string s = string.Format( "Your total was {0} on {1}", total, date); ArrayList al = new ArrayList(); al.Add( new Customer() ); al.Add( 1 ); al.Add( "test" );
  • 37. Language Features Component Development  What defines a component?  Properties, methods, events  Integrated help and documentation  Design-time information  C# has first class support  Not naming patterns, adapters, etc.  Not external files  Components are easy to build and to consume
  • 38. Language Features Properties  Properties Are “Smart Fields”  Natural syntax, accessors, inlining public class Button: Control { private string caption; public string Caption { get { return caption; } set { caption = value; Repaint(); } } } Button b = new Button(); b.Caption = "OK"; String s = b.Caption;
  • 39. Language Features Indexers  Indexers are “smart arrays”  Can be overloaded public class ListBox: Control { private string[] items; public string this[int index] { get { return items[index]; } set { items[index] = value; Repaint(); } } } ListBox listBox = new ListBox(); listBox[0] = "hello"; Console.WriteLine(listBox[0]);
  • 40. Language Features Creating and Firing an Event  Define the Event signature  Define the Event and firing logic public delegate void EventHandler(object sender, EventArgs e); public class Button { public event EventHandler Click; protected void OnClick(EventArgs e) { if (Click != null) Click(this, e); } }
  • 41. Language Features Handling an Event  Define and register Event Handler public class MyForm: Form { Button okButton; public MyForm() { okButton = new Button(...); okButton.Caption = "OK"; okButton.Click += new EventHandler(OkButtonClick); } void OkButtonClick(object sender, EventArgs e) { ShowMessage("You pressed the OK button"); } }
  • 42. Language Features DEMO 2: Creating an Event Handler  Define an Event Handler for a button in a Windows Forms application
  • 43. Language Features Attributes  Associate information with types and members  Documentation URL for a class  Transaction context for a method  XML persistence mapping  Traditional solutions  Add keywords or pragmas to language  Use external files, e.g., .IDL, .DEF  C# solution: Attributes

  • 58. Language Features Versioning  Overlooked in most languages  C++ and Java produce fragile base classes  Users unable to express versioning intent  C# allows intent to be expressed  Methods are not virtual by default  C# keywords “virtual”, “override” and “new” provide context  C# can't guarantee versioning  Can enable (e.g., explicit override)  Can encourage (e.g., smart defaults)
  • 59. class Derived: Base // version 1 { public virtual void Foo() { Console.WriteLine("Derived.Foo"); } } class Derived: Base // version 2a { new public virtual void Foo() { Console.WriteLine("Derived.Foo"); } } class Derived: Base // version 2b { public override void Foo() { base.Foo(); Console.WriteLine("Derived.Foo"); } } class Base // version 1 { } class Base // version 2 { public virtual void Foo() { Console.WriteLine("Base.Foo"); } } Language Features Versioning
