Take Off Your Career in IT with .Net Technology.

.NET FRAMEWORK

The .NET Framework is a powerful software Platform or framework for developing various types of applications. It includes a large library, and it supports several programming languages which allows cross language interoperability (each Programming language can communicate with the code written in other Programming languages) .Net framework has the huge library which contain various namespaces, classes ,interfaces. The .NET library is available to all the programming languages that .NET supports

.Net is a platform or Framework which has Following Various versions and you can see that the number of Programming languages are increasing with the versions of .net framework and the increasing number of number of programming languages means more flexibility and more number of programmers can use it.

  • .Net Framework version2.0 supports more than Programming languages
  • .Net 3.5 Framework can supports more than 60 Programming languages
  • .NET Framework 4.0 supports more than 96 Programming languages

And the latest version of .Net framework is .NET Framework 4.5.2 which supports various new features like Share point, Windows Application development, Windows Phone Applications Etc.

.NET Framework family also includes two versions for mobile or embedded device using these we can develop applications for Windows Mobile devices such as smart phones in .net.

There are so many applications which can be developed in .net .Following are the Types of application developed in .Net
1) Console applications
2) Windows applications(GUI Applications)
3) Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) applications
4) Web Applications(ASP.Net applications)
5) Web services
6) Windows services

Programs written for the .NET Framework executes in a software environment, known as the Common Language Runtime (CLR). The CLR is an application virtual machine which makes the code platform independent it means the code can execute in any CPU. The CLR also provides other important services such as security, memory management, and exception handling, Type Safety. The class library and the CLR together plays a vital role to constitute the .NET Framework.

The .NET Framework is intended to be used by most new applications created for the Windows platform. In order to be able to develop and not just run applications, Microsoft’s SDK should be installed on your computer.

Some Features of .net from the software developers prospective
1) Timeliness: Using Various tools of .net a Programmer is able to develop software in the quickest time possible
2) Common language Specification (CLS): CLS enables developers to develop software using any language of his/her choice. So that a VB developer can develop an application in VB .net and similarly C# developer can develop an application in C#.net. There is no requirement of learning a new language and technology.
3) Integrated development environment (IDE): The IDE enables a programmer to easy writing and debugging of code written in any of the programming language.
4) Common Type system (CTS): It provides the data types which are compatible with more than one languages which are supported by .net framework.
