Introduction

This five day instructor led course provides students with the knowledge and skills to develop applications with the .NET Framework 3.5.
Developing applications for the .NET Framework 3.5 requires familiarity with fundamental mechanisms such as Garbage Collection, Serialization, Streams and Application Domains;
integrating these applications into solutions written using other programming languages requires Interoperability; taking advantage of the latest hardware requiresMultithreading and Asynchronous Programming. These skills are also required for taking advantage of application
frameworks on top of the core CLR such asWindows Communication Foundation (WCF),
Language Integrated Query (LINQ) and others.
The course is packed with practical code samples, demos and exercises to facilitate understanding the covered features from a .NET perspective, as well as from a more holistic system-oriented point of view.

Pre-Requisites

Before attending this course, studentsmust have:

• Working knowledge of the C# 3.0 programming language,
• -or- Completed Course 50150: C# 3.0 Programming in the .NET Framework

Outcomes

After completing this course, students will gain the skills to:

• Develop applications that correctly interact with the .NET Garbage Collector.
• Use streams to read and write various data sources including files and memory buffers.
• Serialize and deserialize object data to different formats.
• Leverage hardware advances by using threads, thread pools, background workers and the Asynchronous Programming Model (APM).
• Isolate applications and plug-ins into separate Application Domains.
• Integrate .NET programs into mixed-language applications.
• Describe other application frameworks (such asWCF and LINQ) on top of the core CLR.
