Microsoft announced in June
2000
A new software –development
model that allows applications
created in disparate
programming languages to
communicate with each other
Allows developers to create
Web-based applications
Introduction to .NET


One key aspect of the .NET
strategy is its independence
from a specific language or
platform
Developer can create a .NET
application by using any
combination of .NET-compatible
languages
Introduction to .NET


Programmers can contribute to
the same software project,
writing code in the .NET
languages in which they are
most proficient
Such as Visual C++.NET, C#,
Visual Basic.NET and many
others
Visual C++ .NET



Known as a visual programming
language-the developer uses
graphical tools, such as Visual
Studio.NET, to create applications
Visual C++ uses MFC
.NET provides an additional library
for implementing GUI, networking,
multithreading and other capabilities
Visual C++.NET


Visual C++.NET introduces Managed
Extensions for C++ that enable a
programmer to access the .NET
framework.
Programmers can use the .NET to create
objects that provide automatic memory
management
C++ -- standard C++
MC++ -- managed extension to C++
Visual C++.NET – compiler used to write
both managed and unmanaged code
How to use Visual Studio .NET
IDE( integrated development
environment)
