Defining the .NET Framework • The .NET Framework is – A software development environment – A runtime engine for Managed Code – A platform designed for Internet-Distributed software

• The .NET Framework is an exciting new computing platform

What is the .NET Framework • A new computing platform designed to simplify application development • A consistent object-oriented programming environment • A code-execution environment that: – Minimizes software deployment and versioning conflicts – Eliminates the performance problems of scripted or interpreted environments

Primary Components of .NET • .NET Framework Class Libraries – Object-oriented collection of reusable types – Sits on-top of the Common Language Runtime

• Common Language Runtime (CLR) – Manages code execution at runtime – Memory management, thread management, etc. – Code designed for the CLR is referred to as “Managed Code”

Common Language Runtime (CLR)

Secure, integrated class libraries

Operating System

•Unifies programming models across languages

Common Language Runtime Executes code, maintains security, handles component “plumbing” and dependencies

•Enables cross-language integration •Factored for extensibility •Designed for tools

One Runtime For Many Languages • • •

•

CLR is an open standard Any language can make use of CLR services Any language can use classes written in any other language Any language can inherit classes written in any other language

.NET Framework Class Libraries • Sit on top of the CLR • Reusable types that tightly integrate with the CLR • Object oriented – inheritance, polymorphism, etc. • Provide functionality for ASP.NET, XML Web Services, ADO.NET, Windows Forms, basic system functionality (IO, XML, etc.)

The Common Language Runtime • Code that targets the CLR is referred to as managed code • All managed code has the features of the CLR – – – –

Object Oriented Cross-language integration Cross language exception handling Multiple version (no more DLL Hell)

The Common Language Runtime • The CLR manages object layout and references to objects • Objects whose lifetimes are managed by the CLR are referred to as Managed Data • Automatic memory management reduces memory leaks • In managed code you can use: – Managed Data – Unmanaged data – Both

The Common Language Runtime • All CLR-compliant compilers use a common type system – Allows for cross-language inheritance – ing object instances across language barriers – Invoking methods across language barriers

• Managed components expose metadata • Metadata includes – Resources component was compiled against – Information about types and dependencies (no more RegServ32

Managed Code and the CLR • The Common Language Runtime (CLR) is a runtime engine – Manages .NET Code (such as C# applications) – Provides features such as memory management, thread management, object type safety, security, etc. – Is a part of the .NET Framework

• Managed code – Code that targets the CLR – Any .NET Language, including C#, Visual Basic, C++, Java, Cobol, etc.

The CLR and Managed Code

Managed Executable Legacy Software (unmanaged code)

Reusable Managed Components

Common Language Runtime (JIT compilation, memory management, etc.)

Windows (or other operating oystem)

IL and Metadata • All Managed executables consist of – Intermediate Language (IL) instructions – Metadata

• IL – U independent machine language – Just-in-time compiled at runtime

• Metadata – Structured information – describes programming constructs including • Classes definitions, field and method definitions, parameter lists, return types, etc.

From Source Code to Managed .exe SomeSource.cs using System.Windows.Forms; using System.Drawing; class MyForm:Form{ public static void Main(){ Application.Run( new MyForm()); } protected override void OnPaint( PaintEventArgs e){ e.Graphics.DrawString( "Hello World!", new Font("Arial",35), Brushes.Blue, 10, 100);

C# Compiler

SomeSources.exe Metadata

A Managed Application

IL

Just-in-Time Compiling • All managed code runs in native machine language • However, all managed code is made up of IL and metadata • The CLR JIT-compiles the IL and metadata – At execution time – Executed directly by U

• Allows for the best of both worlds – Code management features – Performance of full-speed execution

Executing a Managed Application SomeSources.exe Metadata

IL

At execution time the IL and Metadata are JIT compiled

Running Process’ Memory

The U executes the JITcompiled machine code directly

Automatic Memory Management • The CLR manages memory for managed code – All allocations of objects and buffers made from a Managed Heap – Unused objects and buffers are cleaned up automatically through Garbage Collection

• Some of the worst bugs in software development are not possible with managed code – Leaked memory or objects – References to freed or non-existent objects – Reading of uninitialized variables

• Pointerless environment

Garbage Collection class MyClass{ void Method(){ Variable v1; Variable v2;

The Managed Heap B

do{ . . .

Objects A and D will be cleaned up because neither is directly or indirectly referenced by code

A E

C

= Object or buffer in memory

Cross Language • The .NET Framework s many languages • Any compiler can be modified to emit managed executables – IL and metadata

• Languages that target the .NET Framework – C#, Visual Basic, C++, Java, PERL, COBOL, SmallTalk – Dozens more existing and on the way

• Regardless of source language, all managed code can – Use the same tools – Use the same reusable components – Take advantage of features of the CLR

• Developers use their language of choice

Visual Studio.NET • A Integrated Development Environment – To develop managed and unmanaged applications – s C#, C++, Visual Basic, JavaScript – Many useful tools and wizards

• Not part of the .NET Framework – Not necessary to build or run managed code – The .NET Framework SDK includes command line compilers

The Framework Class Library • A huge collection of reusable types – Classes, interfaces, enumerations and structures

• For use by any managed code – Including code written in any managed programming language

• Types for – Common tasks such as collections, file IO, memory and thread management – GUI and window manipulation – Web form and web service applications

• Totally object oriented toolbox for developers – Ships as part of the .NET Framework

Using the FCL • Types are arranged in a hierarchy of Namespaces • A type’s full name includes its namespaces – Form class is actually System.Windows.Forms.Form – Use using to indicate namespaces in source code

• Assembly references are necessary for many types • The SDK documentation is critical for using SDK types – Includes descriptions – Often includes useful code samples – Indicates namespaces and assemblies for types

Language Compiler

Code (IL)

Assembly Metadata

Microsoft Intermediate Language • Managed code is compiled to MSIL • U-independent set of instructions – Loading, storing, initializing and calling methods – Arithmetic and logical operations, etc. – Control flow, exception handling, direct memory access

Assemblies • Contains MSIL code to be executed • Security boundary – permissions are granted at the assembly level • Type boundary – all types include the assembly name they are a part of • Self-describing manifest – metadata that describes the types in the assembly • Smallest versionable unit in the CLR • Deployment unit

Just-In-Time Compiling • Assemblies are compiled to native code by a Just-In-Time (JIT) compiler • Compiled assemblies include metadata • No Type Libraries or Interface Definition Language (IDL)

Before installation or the first time each method is called

Just-In-Time Compiling • All assemblies must be compiled to native code before executing • JIT compilers are built into the CLR for every ed U architecture • JIT compilers convert MSIL to native on demand • Resulting native code is stored for reuse • JIT compiling occurs for each method after the application is restarted

Summary • .NET Framework is a code execution platform • .NET Framework consists of two primary parts: .NET Class Libraries, Common Language Runtime • All CLR-compliant compilers the common type system • Managed code is object oriented • Managed code is compiled to and assembly (MSIL) by language specific compiler • Assemblies are compiled to native code by JIT compiler
