Yves P. — Mon, 26 May 2008 08:04:44 +0000

Dowiedz się jak programować szybko, łatwo i przyjemnie w C# ( c-sharp )?

Andrzej Stefańczyk, Inżynier Rozwoju Aplikacji Microsoft (Microsoft Certified Application Developer), poświęcił kilka miesięcy ciężkiej pracy i swój cenny czas na stworzenie ebooka, z którego prosto i krok po kroku nauczysz się prawidłowo i dobrze pisać programy w języku C# ( c-sharp ). Śmiało można powiedzieć, że to prawdopodobnie najlepsza polska książka o C# ( c-sharp ).

Static Members in Interfaces

Kartik — Sat, 24 Nov 2007 02:20:26 +0000

An excerpt from an interesting discussion about why C# interfaces can't have static members:

Interfaces cannot contain static members because members declared in an interface are inheretly virtual since their polymorphic implementation is assumed. And a static member cannot be virtual.

Resizing an MDI Child Form to Fit its Parent

Kartik — Sat, 24 Nov 2007 02:15:35 +0000

Here's a useful snippet for resizing an MDI child form to fit its parent, minus the title bar, menu bar, status bar and so on:

foreach (Control ctrl in MdiParent.Controls)

{

    if (ctrl is MdiClient)

    {

        Width = ctrl.ClientSize.Width;

        Height = ctrl.ClientSize.Height;

        break;

    }

}

Comparison Between C++ and C#

Kartik — Sun, 19 Aug 2007 19:49:13 +0000

If you are a C++ programmer, this summary at MSDN Library will give you the most important differences between the two languages at a glance. It also contains links to relevant details on each topic.

Besides what is listed there I find the following points worth noting in C#:
1. Support for reflection (System.Reflection)/metadata (by means of a
"manifest")/discovery.
2. Accessors called "properties" for modifying objects.
3. Improved type-safety.
4. Local variables don't shadow variables of the enclosing block.
5. Unified type system - all classes and primitive types are derived
from System.object .
6. Partial classes.
7. XML documentation system built into the IDE.
8. C# paradigm is object-oriented, structured and imperative. C++
paradigm is object-oriented, generic and imperative.
9. No "inheritance modes" (no public/private/protected inheritance for
classes).

Other strange things:
1. No "delete" keyword (because of automatic Garbage Collection).
2. The "new" keyword can be used in class scope.
3. Some class names exist in multiple cases (probably aliases, see the
"using" keyword), e.g.: [Oo]bject, [Ss]tring, [Dd]ouble.
4. Constructors are private by default! They need to be explicitly
specified as public.

Building a Plugin Architecture with C#

C#, C-Sharp

Kartik — Sun, 19 Aug 2007 19:00:24 +0000

C# is Microsoft's attempt at combining C++, Java and Delphi. They just couldn't resist it. The "C# language" is an ECMA and ISO standard; Microsoft's implementation of that standard is known as "Microsoft Visual C#" or sometimes "Microsoft Visual C#.NET" because of the strong dependence of Microsoft Visual C# on the Microsoft .NET Framework.
