Object Oriented Programming With Visual Basic Net

A programmer's complete guide to Visual Basic .NET. Starting with a sample application and a high-level map, the book jumps right into showing how the parts of .NET fit with Visual Basic .NET. Topics include the common language runtime, Windows Forms, ASP.NET, Web Forms, Web Services, and ADO.NET.

Object-Oriented Programming in Visual Basic .NET Alistair McMonnies Approved by author 8th September 2003 Visual Basic .Net (VB .NET) has been a radical departure from previous versions of Visual Basic. The language is now fully object-oriented, and can be used either to write programs, or to create components that fit within the .NET architecture. If you are learning to program, VB .NET will give you a previously unheard-of mix of power, flexibility and ease of use. The book approaches the language from an object-oriented (OO) perspective, demonstrating that Visual Basic can now be used to develop real industrial-strength OO systems and software components. It starts by covering OO analysis, design and modelling using UML, and then moves on to a full discussion of OO concepts. Advanced topics such as data structures, database applications and software design patterns are also covered. Throughout, students are shown how to develop short programs in order to illustrate the fundamentals of algorithm design and structured programming. Features Object-oriented programming is placed fully in the context of the software development life cycle Includes a chapter on database development, covering database design principles, data access techniques and presenting data to the user-interface The book is accompanied by a website at www.booksites.net/mcmonnies containing code for all programs in the book, additional program examples and information on using VB to program database applications. InstructorAs materials include slides, tutorial sheets, lab sheets and assessment materials, all with solutions. Alistair McMonnies is currently a lecturer in the Computing and Information Systems department at the University of Paisley. He teaches software development using Visual Basic and C++ and is a Microsoft Certified Professional.

Goes from the basics of classes, inheritance and interfaces to advanced concepts such as reflection, object persistence, design patterns and refactoring.

Dan Clark shows beginning VB.NET programmers how one goes about architecting an object oriented programming solution aimed at solving a business problem.

This updated edition introduces the important aspects of the language and explains the .NET framework. The alphabetical reference covers the functions, statements, directives, objects, and object members that make up the VB .NET language.

Most Visual Basic .NET books are written for experienced object-oriented programmers, but many programmers jumping on the .NET bandwagon are coming from non-object-oriented languages, such as Visual Basic 6.0 or from script programming, such as JavaScript. These programmers, and those who are adopting VB.NET as their first programming language, have been out of luck when it comes to finding a high-quality introduction to the language that helps them get started.That's why Jesse Liberty, author of the best-selling books Programming C# and Programming ASP.NET, has written an entry-level guide to Visual Basic .NET. Written in a warm and friendly manner, this book assumes no prior programming experience, and provides an easy introduction to Microsoft's most popular .NET language.Learning Visual Basic .NET is a complete introduction to VB.NET and object-oriented programming. This book will help you build a solid foundation in .NET, and show how to apply your skills by using hundreds of examples to help you become productive quickly. Learning Visual Basic .NET introduces fundamentals like Visual Studio .NET, a tool set for building Windows and Web applications. You'll learn about the syntax and structure of the Visual Basic .NET language, including operators, classes and interfaces, structs, arrays, and strings. Liberty then demonstrates how to develop various kinds of applications--including those that work with databases--and web services.By the time you've finished Learning Visual Basic .NET, you'll be ready to move on to a more advanced programming guide that will help you create large-scale web and Windows applications.Whether you have a little object-oriented programming experience or you are new to programming altogether, Visual Basic .NET will set you firmly on your way to mastering the essentials of the VB.NET language.

Michael Mcmillan Provides A Complete Presentation Of The Object-Oriented Features Of The Visual Basic .Net Language For Advanced Visual Basic Programmers. Beginning With An Introduction To Abstract Data Types And Their Initial Implementation Using Structures, He Explains Standard Oop Topics Including Class Design, Inheritance, Access Modifiers And Scoping Issues, Abstract Classes, Design And Implemention Of Interfaces And Design Patterns, And Refactoring In Vb.Net. More Advanced Oop Topics Are Included As Well, Such As Reflection, Object Persistence, And Serialization. To Tie Everything Together, Mcmillan Demonstrates Sound Oop Design And Implementation Principles Through Practical Examples Of Standard Windows Applications, Database Applications Using Ado.Net, Web-Based Applications Using Asp.Net, And Windows Service Applications.

Completely revised, this edition is an essential guide for VB programmers looking to make the change to the .NET programming environment.
