C# and .NET
1. Introduction
• History
• C# features
• .NET framework
3. C# data types
5. ...

3
History
Builds on legacy from
• C/C++ tradition -> new programming language C#
• Java tradition : many ideas borrowed
• runtime environment : virtual machine
• platform/language abstraction
• guarded execution environment
• garbage collection
• single rooted hierarchy
• ...
Takes software development one step further towards
component based design

4
History
procedural/structured
design/programming
object oriented
design/programming
component based
design/programming
C/PASCAL
C++
JAVA
C#/.NET
component support possible
BUT NOT built into the language
- templates
- deployment descriptors
COM/COM+
CORBA component model

5
C# features :
component oriented
Modern large-scale systems are component based
Properties
get/set
event based communication
support to annotate component for
- deployment
- configuration at design and/or runtime
- component versioning
- documentation

6
C# features : OO paradigm
supports all typical OO mechanisms
• encapsulation
• inheritance
• polymorphism
• interface based programming
C++ legacy (NOT supported in Java)
• support for operator overloading
• user defined type conversions
• rectangular arrays
• pass-by-reference

7
C# features :
Excution model
NO own runtime library
- uses .NET library (redesign of MS-library)
(implemented in C#)
Compiles to intermediary language
(CIL - Common Intermediate Language)
Executed by virtual machine
(CLR – Common Language Runtime)
- memory management through garbage collection
- guarded execution (e.g. array bounds guarding)
- JIT compilation

8
.NET framework
“.NET framework”
CLR
FCL Framework
Class Library
Application Code
Version 1.0 released January 15, 2002

9
.NET execution model
Platform AND language portability
CLR can exploit processor/platform specific optimizations
Supported languages :
C#, J#, VB.NET, JScript, Microsoft IL, Managed Extensions for C++
Supplied by 3rd
parties :
COBOL, Eiffel, Haskell, Forth, Scheme, Smalltalk, Pascal, ...
CLR
Compiler
Application Code in “A Language”
CIL

10
.NET :
Common Type System
Cross language type system, allowing
- type safety
- cross language integration
- execution services (garbage collection, JIT, exceptions, ...)
Defines rules to define types, irrespective of source language
All types eventually mapped to CTS-types
e.g. cross language inheritance
J# class inherits from C# class
Minimum subset for language to be supported by .NET :
CLS – Common Language Specification
- CLS-compliant language = “CLS consumer”
- if more than CLS : “CLS extender”
C#= both CLS consumer and extender

11
.NET : FCL categories
comprises
- > 3500 classes
- > 1 000 000 lines of code
• core functions
• basic datatypes, collections
• IO (network, console, file)
• calls to runtime services
• database interaction
• transactions
• consuming/producing XML
• manipulation of tables
• web-based applications (thin clients)
• desktop applications (thick clients)
• SOAP-based XML web services

}
}
package project1;
import java.lang.*;

C# and .NET
1. Introduction
3. C# data types

14
C# - Java :
common approaches
Both intended as improvement to C++
• Compilation to machine independent language, managed execution
• Garbage Collection, no pointers
(C# allows pointer usage in special “unsafe” code sections)
• Reflection API
• No header files, no problems with circular (type) references
• Single rooted hierarchy, objects allocated on the heap
• Thread support by object-level lock
• Multiple extension of interfaces, single inheritance for classes
• Inner classes (closure instead of nested class)
• Simple inheritance rules (no inheritance modifiers)
• Everything is in a class (no global data, no global functions)
• Arrays, strings : bounds checked at execution time
• Systematic usage of “.” (instead of “->” and “::”)
• Keywords for null pointer (null) and boolean type (boolean/bool)
• Guaranteed initialization
• if-statement controlled by boolean (instead of integer)
• Finally-clause in try-catch blocks

15
Properties
C# : special support for getters/setters
Java : implied by coding convention (template or “design pattern”)
Property int min
Java style :
public int getMin() {return min;}
public void setMin(int m) {min=m;}
C# style :
public int Min {
get {return min;}
set {min=value;}
}
// value : implicit variable used when
// calling setter method
- getter/setter grouped together
- encourages to think in terms of properties

16
IndexerMeans to index underlying datastructure
Java style :
public class Bookshop {
private Book[] books;
// ...
public void setBooks(int i,Book b) {
if(b!=null) books[i]=b;
}
public Book getBooks(int i) {return books[i];}
}
C# style :
public class Bookshop
{
private Book[] books;
// ...
public Book this[int i]{
get {return books[i];}
set {if(value!=null) books[i]=value;}
}
}
// ...
Bookshop standaard=new Bookshop();
standaard[10]=new Book(“Harry Potter”);

17
Event handling
Delegates used to handle events
- Java equivalent : inner class object
- C/C++ equivalent : function pointer
Direct support in C# for events
public delegate void TempChangeHandler(double t,ref bool cancel);
public class Thermometer {
public event TempChangeHandler TempChange;
double temp;
public double Temperature{
get{return temp;}
set{if(temp!=value) {
bool cancel=false;
TempChange(value,ref cancel); // fire event
if(!cancel) temp=value;
}
}
}

18
Event handling
public class TempController {
public TempController(Thermometer tm) {
tm.TempChange+=new TempChangeHandler(tm_TempChange);
}
private void tm_TempChange(double t,ref bool cancel) {
if(t>100) {
cancel=true;
System.Console.WriteLine(
"Way too hot : WRONG VALUE");
} else {
System.Console.WriteLine(
"New temperature registered.");
}
}
}

19
Event handling
public class Test {
public static void Main() {
Thermometer term=new Thermometer();
TempController tc=new TempController(term);
term.Temperature=30;
Console.WriteLine("Temp = {0}",term.Temperature);
term.Temperature=120;
Console.WriteLine("Temp = {0}",term.Temperature);
}
}

20
Enummerations
Standard Java approach
public class Period {
public final static int DAILY=1;
public final static int WEEKLY=2;
public final static int MONTHLY=3;
public final static int YEARLY=4;
}
// ...
int publicationPeriod=Period.DAILY;
// PROBLEM : does not prevent int publicationPeriod=12; ???
C# approach
public enum Period{DAILY=1,WEEKLY=2,MONTHLY=3,YEARLY=4};
Period publicationPeriod = Period.WEEKLY;

21
Enummerations
Java 5 approach
enum PeriodE{DAILY,WEEKLY,MONTHLY,YEARLY}
//...
int publicationPeriod=Period.DAILY;
System.out.println(publicationPeriod);
PeriodE pubPeriod=PeriodE.DAILY;
System.out.println(pubPeriod);
// OUTPUT :
// 1
// DAILY

22
Iterating over a Collection
Standard Java approach
for(Iterator i=collection.iterator();i.hasNext();) {
Object o=i.next();
// do something with o
}
for(int i=0;i<array.length;i++) {
// do something with array[i]
}
C# approach
foreach(object o in collection) {
}
foreach(int i in array) {
// do something with i
}
Java 5 approach
for(Object o : collection) {
}
for(int i : array) { // do something with i
}

23
Extension on
“primitive” typesC# struct datatype :
- very similar to class (defines attributes and methods)
- BUT : - allocated on the stack or in-line (instead of heap)
- value type -> pass by value by default
- efficient for small types
- usage similar to usage of primitive types in Java
struct CoupleV
{
private int x, y;
public int X
{
set { x = value; }
get { return x; }
}
public int Y
{
set { y = value; }
get { return y; }
}
public string ToString()
{
return "(" + x + "," + y + ")";
}

24
Extension on
“primitive” types
public static void Main()
{
CoupleV p = new CoupleV();
p.X = 10;
p.Y = 20;
CoupleV q=new CoupleV();
q.X = 20;
q.Y = 30;
Console.WriteLine(p.ToString());
Console.WriteLine(q.ToString());
CoupleV[] r = new CoupleV[4];
for (int i = 0; i < r.Length; i++)
r[i].X = r[i].Y=i;
foreach(CoupleV i in r)
Console.WriteLine(i.ToString());
}

25
Operator Overloading
Allows to program type specific operator semantics
More restrictive than C++ overloading mechanism
- always static
- NON virtual (static binding !) !
public static bool operator ==(CoupleV a, CoupleV b)
{
return ((a.x == b.x) && (a.y == b.y));
}
public static Boolean operator !=(CoupleV a, CoupleV b)
{
return !(a == b);
}
// ...
CoupleV p = new CoupleV();p.X = 10;p.Y = 20;
CoupleV q = new CoupleV();q.X = 10;q.Y = 20;
Console.WriteLine(p == q); // TRUE
Console.WriteLine((object)p == (object)q); // FALSE non-virtual !

26
Polymorphism
Java : all methods virtual (late binding) by default
C# (like C++) : methods MUST be declared virtual if late binding applies
class A
{
public virtual void f() {Console.WriteLine("A.f()");}
}
class B : A
{
public override void f() {Console.WriteLine("B.f()");}
}
- shows intention of programmer
- more efficient
- can prevent later extensions ...
- explicit interface implementation
(solving name conflicts in case of multiple interface implementation)
- possibility to hide base class type/method in derived class

27
Assemblies
Type boundaries
- class
- namespace (equivalent to Java package)
- assembly (equivalent to Java archive)
Assemby = exe/dll to deploy
- meta-data (files contained, security settings, versioning info,
dependencies)
- modules (compiled source files)
- resources
Versioning
- contained in assemby info
- allows to run multiple versions of same types on same CLR

28
Visibility
private
same as Java
= default for interface and enum members
public
same as Java
=default for struct and class members
protected
visible in type itself or derived types
internal
visible in assembly
= default for non-nested types
internal protected
visible from type itself, in same assembly and in derived
types (= private or protected or internal)
Type can not be more accessible then types used for its declaration

29
Parameter modifiers
Passing references
ref
pass reference to method
requires parameter is assigned definite value before method entry
out
requires definite parameter assignment before returning from
method call
Variable number of arguments
params
can be applied to last argument of method
Parameter modifiers are part of method signature

30
Parameter modifiers
static void swap(ref int a, ref int b)
{
int t = a; a = b; b = t;
}
static void OneMore(int i, out int j)
{
j = i + 1;
}
static int sum(params int[] x)
{
int r = 0;
foreach (int i in x) r += i;
return r;
}
// ...
int x = 1, y = 2;
swap(ref x, ref y);
Console.WriteLine("{0} - {1}",x, y); // 2 - 1
OneMore(x, out y);
Console.WriteLine("{0} - {1}", x, y); // 2 - 3
Console.WriteLine(sum(1, 2, 3)); // 6
Console.WriteLine(sum(3, 4, 5, 6)); // 18

31
Attributes
Allow to extend language built-in declarative constructs
- Pre-defined attributes (e.g. Serialized)
- Custom attributes
Can be applied to
- class
- method
- field
- parameter
Attributes and values can be retrieved at runtime

32
Field modifiers
const
- value calculated at compile time
- equivalent to Java final
readonly
- value calculated at runtime
- can only be assigned once !
- allows to retrieve setting
(“a not so constant constant ...”)

33
Pointer arithmetic
allowed in sections marked as unsafe
pointer type : <type>*
dereferencing : *<pointer expression>
address calculation : &<variable>
Garbage collector should NOT move around objects
used in unsafe regions
MUST be declared fixed

34
Pointer arithmetic
unsafe static void AdditionOne(int[] b)
{
int l=b.Length;
fixed (int* a = b)
{
int* p = a;
for (int i = 0; i < l; i++,p++) *p = (*p) + 1;
}
}
//...
int[] k ={ 1, 2, 3, 4 };
foreach (int a in k) Console.WriteLine("{0}", a); // 1 2 3 4
AdditionOne(k);
foreach (int a in k) Console.WriteLine("{0}", a); // 2 3 4 5

35
Rectangular Arrays
int[,,] a=new int[3,4,5]; // rectangular array
// single reference variable
a[1,2,3]=20;
int[][][] b=new int[3][4][5]; // jagged array
b[1][2][3]=30;
...

36
Constructors - Destructors
Very similar to Java constructors – finalizers
Constructor :
can contain explicit constructor call
specified outside constructor body
- call to other constructor of same type : this(...)
- call to base class constructor : base(...)
Destructor
NOT for value type
NO explicit calls to destructor
C++-like syntax (actually expands to calling Finalize)
class A
{
public A():this(1){}
public A(int i):base(i){}
~A() {/* Destructor */}
}

37
C# and .NET
1. Introduction
3. C# data types

38
C# type system
Value types (struct, enum)
Reference types (class, array, delegate, interface)
Pointer type
struct CoupleV
{
private int x, y;
public CoupleV(int xx, int yy) { x = xx; y = yy; }
public int X
{
set { x = value; }
get { return x; }
}
public int Y
{
set { y = value; }
get { return y; }
}
public override string ToString()
{
return "(" + x + "," + y + ")";
}
}

39
C# type system
class CoupleR
{
private int x=0, y=0;
public CoupleR(int xx, int yy) { x = xx; y = yy; }
public int X
{
set { x = value; }
get { return x; }
}
public int Y
{
set { y = value; }
get { return y; }
}
{
return "(" + x + "," + y + ")";
}
}

40
C# type system
// ...
CoupleR a = new CoupleR(1, 2);
CoupleR b = a;
CoupleV c = new CoupleV(3, 4);
CoupleV d = c;
a.X = 7;
c.X = 7;
Console.WriteLine(a); // (7,2)
Console.WriteLine(b); // (7,2)
Console.WriteLine(c); // (7,4)
Console.WriteLine(d); // (3,4)

41
Type unification
all struct and class types derive from object
(pointer types do not ...)
“simple” (“primitive”) types are actually structs
int : alias for System.Int32
long : alias for System.Int64
...
boxing – unboxing
- value type -> reference type : copy made (automatic)
- reference type -> value type : explicit cast necessary
int x=12;
object o=x; // box
int y=(int)o; // unbox through downcast

42
Available types
Value types
signed integer : sbyte, short, int, long
unsigned integer : byte, ushort, uint, ulong
floating point : float, decimal, double
logical : bool
characters : char
Reference types
object
string
standard notations for constants apply (U : unsigned, L : long)
standard rules for conversions apply

43
Checked Arithmetic
checked(<expression>)
checked {/* block */}
checks for integral overflows
generates runtime exception OverflowException
unchecked(<expression>)
unchecked{/* block */}
turns off compile time bounds checking

44
Control flow statements
Same as in Java, BUT
switch :
no “fall through” behaviour
each case must end with jump (break, goto, ...)
foreach
goto label;
// ...
int x=0;
loop :
x++;
if(x<5) goto loop;

45
Namespaces
Similar to java packages w.r.t. avoiding name clashes
BUT : no boundary for accessibility
Can be nested
namespace A {
namespace B {
class CL {
}
}
}
// ...
A.B.CL x=new A.B.CL();
Alternative
using A.B;
CL x=new CL();
Global namespace = default surrounding namespace

46
C# and .NET
1. Introduction
3. C# data types

47
Classes
[<attributes>][unsafe][<access modifier>][new]
[abstract | sealed] <class name>
[: <base class> |
: <interfaces> |
: <base class>,<interfaces> ] {
<class members>
}
Class members
• Fields
• Constants
• Properties
• Indexers
• Methods
• Events
• Nested type (like Java static inner class, no outer object)

48
Modifiers
Accessibility (visibility) : private, internal, protected, public
Inheritable
sealed : can not be overridden/inherited (Java equivalent : final)
- sealed class
- sealed method
abstract : MUST be overridden/inherited
- abstract class
- abstract method
class/method can not be sealed AND abstract
Parameter modifiers : ref,out,params
Class member/instance member : static
Late binding/static binding : virtual, override, new
Dangerous ? : unsafe
- unsafe class
- unsafe method
- unsafe property

49
Inheritance
class A {}
class B : A {}
class C : B {}
class D : A {}
Runtime type checking (RTTI)
operator is
if(a is A) {/* ... */}
if(b is A) {/* ... */} // true if b is A or B
Conversions :
- widening conversions (upcast) : automatic
B b = new B();
C c = new C();
D d = new D();
A ab = b;
A ac = c;
B bc = c;
B bd = d; // compile time error
A ad = d;
- narrowing (cntd.)

50
Inheritance
- narrowing conversions : cast necessary
- simple downcast :
B ba=(B)ab; // OK
C ca=(C)ac; // OK
D da=(D)ad; //OK
D dc=(D)ac; // runtime error
- safe downcast (evaluates to null if unsuccesful)
B ba = ab as B;
C ca = ac as C;
D dc = ac as D; // null

51
Polymorphism
Key idea : late binding, based on dynamic object type
C# : use virtual methods, override in derived class
class A
{
}
class B : A
{
}
class C : B
{
public override void f() { Console.WriteLine("C.f()"); }
}
class D : A
{
public override void f() {Console.WriteLine("D.f()");}
}

52
Polymorphism
A a = new A();
B b = new B();
C c = new C();
D d = new D();
a.f(); // A.f()
b.f(); // B.f()
c.f(); // C.f()
d.f(); // D.f()
A[] a = new A[] { new A(), new B(), new C(), new D() };
foreach(A aa in a) aa.f();
// A.f()
// B.f()
// C.f()
// D.f()

53
Polymorphism
Sealing
class A
{
}
class B : A
{
public sealed override void f() {Console.WriteLine("B.f()");}
}
class C : B
{
}
NOT allowed

54
Polymorphism
Hiding base class member : new
class A
{public virtual void f() {Console.WriteLine("A.f()");}}
class B : A
{public override void f() {Console.WriteLine("B.f()");}}
class C : B
{public new void f() { Console.WriteLine("C.f()"); }}
class D : A
{public override void f() {Console.WriteLine("D.f()");}}
A aa = new A(); aa.f(); // A.f()
B bb = new B(); bb.f(); // B.f()
C cc = new C(); cc.f(); // C.f()
D dd = new D(); dd.f(); // D.f()
A ab = new B(); ab.f(); // B.f()
A ac = new C(); ac.f(); // B.f()
A ad = new D(); ad.f(); // D.f();
B bc = new C(); bc.f(); // B.f();
foreach(A o in a) o.f(); // A.f() B.f() B.f() D.f()

55
Polymorphism
Hiding base class member : new
class A
{public virtual void f() {Console.WriteLine("A.f()");}}
class B : A
{public override void f() {Console.WriteLine("B.f()");}}
class C : B
{public new void f() { Console.WriteLine("C.f()"); }}
class D : A
{public new void f() {Console.WriteLine("D.f()");}}
A aa = new A(); aa.f(); // A.f()
B bb = new B(); bb.f(); // B.f()
C cc = new C(); cc.f(); // C.f()
D dd = new D(); dd.f(); // D.f()
A ab = new B(); ab.f(); // B.f()
A ac = new C(); ac.f(); // B.f()
A ad = new D(); ad.f(); // A.f();
B bc = new C(); bc.f(); // B.f();
foreach(A o in a) o.f(); // A.f() B.f() B.f() A.f()

56
Polymorphism
new
- define method as new (even if method with
same signature, possibly sealed, exists in base class)
- define new property
- define new field
class A
{protected double i;
public double I
{set{i = value;}
get{return i;}
}
public sealed void f() {Console.WriteLine("A.f()");}
}
class B : A
{private new int i;
public new int I
{set{i = value;}
get{return i;}
}
public new void f() {Console.WriteLine(“B.f()");}
}

57
Structs
Struct = class except for
• value type, allocated on the stack
• is implicitely sealed (inherit from single type, System.ValueType),
can implement several interfaces
• can NOT have destructor
• NO field initializers (initialization to 0)
• NO constructor that leaves fields uninitialized
struct CoupleV : A // not allowed unless A is interface
{
private int x=1, y=1; // NOT allowed : field initializer
public CoupleV(int xx) { x = xx; }
// NOT allowed : partial initialization
public CoupleV(int xx, int yy) { x = xx; y = yy; } // allowed
}

58
Interfaces
Interface = class except for
• no implementation, (pure abstract class)
• can be supertype of struct (class can not !)
Interface members :
- methods
- properties
- indexers
- events
always : implicitly public, abstract, virtual and non static

59
Interfaces
interface IP{void f();}
interface IQ{void g();}
class A : IP{
}
class B : A,IQ {
public virtual void g() {Console.WriteLine("B.g()");}
}
class C : B {
public override void g() { Console.WriteLine("C.g()"); }
}
class D : A{
public override void f(){Console.WriteLine("D.f()");}
}
class E : D,IQ {
public override void f() { Console.WriteLine("E.f()"); }
public virtual void g() { Console.WriteLine("E.g()"); }
}

60
Interfaces
IP[] p = new IP[] { new A(), new B(), new C(), new D(), new E() };
IQ[] q = new IQ[] { new B(), new C(), new E() };
foreach (IP pp in p) pp.f();
foreach (IQ qq in q) qq.g();
// A.f()
// B.f()
// C.f()
// D.f()
// E.f()
// B.g()
// C.g()
// E.g()
Extending an interface
interface IPP : IP {
void ff();
}

61
Explicit interface
implementation
PROBLEM : implement two interfaces with name collision
-> explicit (instead of implicit) interface implementation
interface U
{
void a();
}
interface V
{
void a();
}
class O : U, V
{
void U.a() { Console.WriteLine("A.ua()"); }
void V.a() { Console.WriteLine("A.va()"); }
}
// ...
O o = new O();
// o.a(); // NOT allowed
((U)o).a(); // A.ua()
((V)o).a(); // A.va()

62
Explicit interface
implementation
LIMITATIONS (compared to implicit implementations)
• NO late binding
no polymorphism related modifiers
(no abstract, virtual, override, new)
• NO access modifier
usage requires cast to interface
access modifier mentioned there is used implicitely
Same rules (as with classes) to
• convert between types
• to convert to structs

63
C# and .NET
1. Introduction
3. C# data types
8. A GUI in C#

64
Operator overloading
Idea
• treat operators (+,-,*,/,%,...) as special functions
(keyword operator)
• give special meaning to operator according to class
semantics
• allows elegant programming for math-oriented
software
• important issue : what happens in case of mixed type
expressions ?
-> need to overload also type conversion
-> quite complex to keep consistent
-> not available in Java (but proposals are on the way ...)

65
C# Operator overloading
Operators to overload
+ - ! ~ ++ -- (unary)
(binary)
+ - * / % arithmetic
& | ^ bit logic
<< >> bit shift
== != > < >= <= relational
CAN NOT BE OVERLOADED :
- address related operators (unary *, &)
- assignment ! (cf. C++ ...)
ONLY static operators allowed
LOGIC pairs (MUST be overloaded together)
== and !=
< and >
<= and >=

66
Indirect overloading
To keep things consistent
(developer might forget to overload ...)
- && and || are evaluated using & and |
- [] operator overloaded through indexers
- combined assignment operators (+=, -=, *=, /=, ...)
evaluated using non-combined counterparts

67
Value equality
Operators == and != default to reference equality
If other behavior is needed :
- override Equals method (cf. Java)
- redirect Equals to “==“ and “!=“
-> allows compatibility with .NET languages
NOT supporting operator overloading
-> allows polymorphism

68
Value equality
class Point
{
protected int x, y;
public Point(int xx, int yy) { x = xx; y = yy; }
public Point(int xx) : this(xx, xx) { }
public Point() : this(0) { }
{
return "<"+x+","+y+">";
}
public static bool operator ==(Point a, Point b)
{

Value equalityProblem
Collections framework heavily uses Equals()-method
(implementation of no-duplicate collections such as Sets)
-> whenever == and != overloaded -> Equals() should be overridden
public override bool Equals(object o)
{
if (o is Point)
{
Point p = (Point)o;
return this == p;
}
else return false;
}
DO NOT call Equals() from within == and != ...

70
Value equality :
inheritance
class Point3D : Point
{
protected int z;
public Point3D(int xx,int yy,int zz):base(xx,yy){z=zz;}
{
return "<"+x+","+y+","+z+">";
}
}
// ...
Point a=new Point(1,1);
Point b=new Point(2,2);
Point c = new Point(2, 2);
Point3D d=new Point3D(3,3,3);
Point3D e = new Point3D(3, 3, 3);
Point3D f = new Point3D(3, 3, 4);
Console.WriteLine(a); // <1,1>
Console.WriteLine(b); // <2,2>
Console.WriteLine(e); // <3,3,3>
Console.WriteLine(f); // <3,3,4>

71
Value equality :
inheritance
Console.WriteLine(a == b); // False
Console.WriteLine(a == c); // False
Console.WriteLine(a == d); // False
Console.WriteLine(b == c); // True -> value !
Console.WriteLine(b == d); // False
Console.WriteLine(c == d); // False
Console.WriteLine(d == e); // True
Console.WriteLine(e == f); // True
Operators == and != should be overloaded in Point3D
public static bool operator ==(Point3D a, Point3D b)
{
return (a.x == b.x) && (a.y == b.y)&&(a.z==b.z);
}
public static bool operator !=(Point3D a, Point3D b)
{
return !(a == b);
}
// ...
Console.WriteLine(e == f); // False

72
Value equality :
polymorphismPoint[] p ={ new Point(1, 1), new Point(2, 2),
new Point3D(1, 1, 1), new Point3D(2, 2, 2) };
Point s1 = new Point(2, 2)
Point s2 = new Point3D(2, 2, 2);
foreach (Point pp in p) Console.WriteLine(pp == s1);
foreach (Point pp in p) Console.WriteLine(pp == s2);
// False True False True
// False True False True
CHANGE operator in base class (!)
public static bool operator ==(Point a, Point b)
{
if(((a is Point3D)&&!(b is Point3D))||
(!(a is Point3D)&&(b is Point3D))) return false;
else return (a.x == b.x) && (a.y == b.y);
}
public static bool operator !=(Point a, Point b)
{
return !(a == b);
}
// False True False False
// False False False True

73
Overloading arithmetic
operators
Operator + Point p: translate over p
Operator + int i: translate over Point(i,i)
public static Point operator +(Point a, Point b){
return new Point(a.x + b.x,a.y + b.y);
}
public static Point operator +(Point a,int i){
return new Point(a.x + i, a.y + i);
}
public static Point operator +(int i, Point a){
return a + i;
}
//...
Point a = new Point(10, 20);
Point b = new Point(20, 30);
Console.WriteLine(a + b); //<30,50>
Console.WriteLine(a + 100); //<110,120>
Console.WriteLine(100 + a + b); //<130,150>

74
Type Conversion
Two versions
implicit
not dangerous, can be invoked by compiler
whenever needed
explicit
dangerous, only done if explicitely asked
e.g. conversion to and from int
Point-to-int : max value of x and y (looses info !)
int-to-Point : Point on diagonal (no info lost !)

75
Type Conversion
public static Point operator +(Point a,int i)
{
Console.WriteLine("+(P,i)");
return new Point(a.x + i, a.y + i);
}
public static Point operator +(int i, Point a)
{
Console.WriteLine("+(i,P)");
return a + i;
}
public static implicit operator Point(int i)
{
Console.WriteLine("(P)i");
return new Point(i, i);
}
public static explicit operator int(Point p)
{
Console.WriteLine("(i)P");
return (p.x > p.y) ? p.x : p.y;
}

76
Type Conversion
Point a = new Point(10,20);
Console.WriteLine((Point)5); // (P)i <5,5>
Console.WriteLine(a + 5); // +(P,i) <15,25>
Console.WriteLine((int)a + 5); //(i)P 25
In case NO +(Point,int) and +(int,Point) operators :
Console.WriteLine((Point)5); // (P)i <5,5>
Console.WriteLine(a + 5); // (P)i <15,25>
Console.WriteLine((int)a + 5); // (i)P 25

9. A web service in C

78
Delegates[<attributes>][unsafe][<access modifiers>]
[new]delegate <return type> <delegate name>
(<parameter list>);
= type defining method signature
- instance can hold (list of) method(s) with matching signature
public delegate bool Filter(string s);
class Del{
public static void Main(){
String[] r = new String[] { "a fair Lady",
"the king and I", "hye buzz", "a beautiful mind",
"the zzz" };
Filter f=new Filter(StartWithA);
ArrayList a=Show(r,f);
Console.WriteLine("Starting with a :");
foreach (String s in a) Console.WriteLine(s);

Multicast Delegates
Use operators += and -= to add/remove delegates to other delegate
if non-void : return value of last invocation is returned
public delegate void M(int i);
class Multi
{
// ...
public static void Print(int i)
{
Console.WriteLine("i = {0}",i);
}
public static void Sqrt(int i)
{
Console.WriteLine(Math.Sqrt(i));

public static void EndMessage(int i)
{
Console.WriteLine("Ending ...");
}
}

Delegate versus ...
Delegate vs. C function pointer
- type safe (unless in unsafe regions ...)
- can hold multiple methods to invoke
- can hold instance to invoke method upon
Delegate vs. Interface
- multiple methods to invoke
(could be implemented through list of
interface objects)
- any problem solved with delegates can be
solved using interface types
- “more elegant”

85
Delegate versus Inteface
interface IF
{
bool Filter(string s);
}
class StartWithAFilter : IF
{
public bool Filter(string s)
{
return s[0] == 'a';
}
}
class EndWithZFilter : IF
{
public bool Filter(string s)
{
return s[s.Length - 1] == 'z';
}
}

86
Delegate versus Inteface
class Test {
{
String[] r = new String[] { "a very fair Lady",
"the king and a z", "hye buzzy",
"a beautiful mind for z", "the zzz" };
ArrayList a = Show(r, new StartWithAFilter());
Console.WriteLine("Starting with a :");
foreach (String s in a) Console.WriteLine(s);
ArrayList z = Show(r, new EndWithZFilter());
Console.WriteLine("Ending with z :");
foreach (String s in z) Console.WriteLine(s);

ArrayList l = new ArrayList();
foreach (String i in s) if (f.Filter(i)) l.Add(i);
return l;

87
Events
A
B
events
- notification from A -> B
- WITHOUT calling directly method on B
use of intermediary
- event listeners + event handlers
- in C# : implemented through delegates
event

88
Events
A
B
event
Event Source
Event Sink
- delegate defined to fix handler signature
- source class declares ability to fire event
-> public (downcast) multicast delegate d
- delegates registered with d to get notified
- source class fires event by calling delegate d
d
Delegate
delegate
delegate
delegate

89
Events : Example
Customer arrives in business centre
-> generates event
-> interested parties are notified
Delegate conventions for eventing
- first argument : identifies source of event
- second argument : additional info
subclass of EventArgs
Example
- ID = object reference
- additional info :
- time of event
- urgency

90
Events : Example
Delegate signature
delegate void CustomerHandler(object s, CustomerArgs e)
public delegate void CustomerHandler(object o,CustomerArgs e);
enum Priority {LOW=0,NORMAL=1,HIGH=2};
class CustomerArgs : EventArgs
{
private DateTime d;
public Priority p;
public static Random r = new Random();
public DateTime Time
{
get { return d; }
}
public Priority Urgency
{
get {return p;}
}
public CustomerArgs()
{
d = DateTime.Now;
p=(Priority)(r.Next(3));
}
}
Preliminaries
• Delegate declaration
• Definition of event handler argument type

91
Events : Example
public class Customer
{
private string name;
public event CustomerHandler CustomerArrival;
public string Name
{
get { return name; }
}
public Customer(string n){name = n;}
public void arrive()
{
if (CustomerArrival != null)
{
CustomerArgs args = new CustomerArgs();
CustomerArrival(this, args); // fire the event;
}
}
public override string ToString(){return "<Customer : "+name+">";}
}
Event source class : Customer
• Declares event
• Listeners will register to event
• FIRES event when needed

92
Events : Example
class HotelService
{private string n;
public HotelService(string n) {this.n=n;}
public string Name{get{return n;}}
public void CustomerArrivalNotification(object o,CustomerArgs a) {
Console.WriteLine(this + " : guest " + (Customer)o +
" arrived at " + (a.Time)+"(Priority : "+a.Urgency+")");
}
{ return "Hotel service : "+n;
}
}
class HotelPersonnel
{private string n;
public HotelPersonnel(string n) {this.n=n;}
public string Name{get{return n;}}
public void CustomerArrivalNotification(object o,CustomerArgs a) {
Console.WriteLine(this + " : guest " + (Customer)o +
" arrived at" + (a.Time) + "(Priority : " + a.Urgency + ")");
}
{ return "Hotel personnel : "+n;
}
}
Event sink classes :
• HotelService
• HotelPersonnel
• declare a method conforming
to delegate signature

93
Events : Example
class CustomerApp {
public static void Main() {
Customer[] c=new Customer[] {new Customer("Bart De Poorter"),
new Customer("George Bush"),
new Customer("Condaleeza Rice"),
new Customer("Mahatma Ghandi")};
HotelService[] hs = new HotelService[] {
new HotelService("House keeping"),
new HotelService("Accounting"),
new HotelService("Reception") };
HotelPersonnel[] hp = new HotelPersonnel[] {
new HotelPersonnel("Manager"),
new HotelPersonnel("Mr. BigBoss (owner)") };
foreach(HotelService h in hs)
{
foreach(Customer cu in c)
cu.CustomerArrival+=
new CustomerHandler(h.CustomerArrivalNotification);
}
// ...
Main method
• instantiates simulation objects
• binds sinks to sources

94
Events : Example
// ...
foreach (HotelPersonnel h in hp)
{
c[1].CustomerArrival +=
c[2].CustomerArrival +=
}
Console.WriteLine("Starting simulation ----------------");
foreach (Customer cc in c)
{
cc.arrive();
try
{
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(1000);
}
catch (System.Threading.ThreadInterruptedException e) { }
Console.WriteLine("---------------------");
}
}
}

char c=a[2];
formatting strings (Format()-method)
format specifier string :
{ParamIndex[,MinWidth][:FormatString]}
e.g. “Value of account {0} is {1:C}” (C -> “Currency”)

99
FCL
System.Collections
- Java-like set of interfaces and classes, implementing popular
data structures (ArrayList, Queue, Stack, BitArray, ...)
- System.Array is base type for all array types
- generics as of .NET v 2.0 (System.Collections.Generics)
to iterate over Collection :
- Collection implements IEnumerable
public interface IEnumerable {
IEnumerator GetEnumerator();
}
- iterator implements IEnumerator
public interface IEnumerator {
bool MoveNext();
object Current {get;}
void Reset();
}
- also : foreach idiom can be used

100
FCL
iterator for Dictionary (Java Map)
public interface IDectionaryEnumerator : IEnumerator {
DictionaryEntry Entry {get;}
object Key {get;}
object Value {get;}
}
IEnumerable
ICollection
IList
IDictionary

indexed collection

101
FCLclass Array : ICollection, IEnumerable, IList
fixed size indexed array
class ArrayList : IList
dynamically sized array
class Hashtable : IDictionary

Console.WriteLine("--------------------");
}
ArrayList al = new ArrayList();
al.Add("Wim");

105
FCL : SortingTwo options :
- object ordering implemented in the class itself
public interface IComparable {
int CompareTo(object o);
}
- delegate ordering to special object
public interface IComparer {
int Compare(object o1,object o2);
}
comparing must follow special contract
1. if a comes before b -> a.CompareTo(b)<0
2. if a is equal to b -> a.CompareTo(b) == 0
3. if a comes after b -> a.CompareTo(b)>0
4. null first -> a.CompareTo(null)>0
5. a.CompareTo(b) -> a.GetType() == b.GetType()

1. Introduction
3. C# data types
8. A GUI in C#

114
GUIs in .NET
- heavily uses delegates
- event subscription
- event notification
- Visual Studio .NET contains IDE to assist GUI development

(instead of “Console Application”)
- Add WinForms as needed
- Drop components from ToolBox on each form
- Change component state in IDE generated code
- Code event handlers

115
Example : incrementor
System.Windows.Forms.Button
declares properties : Name, Text
fires events :
System.EventHandler Click
System.Windows.Forms.TextBox
declares properties : Name, Text
System.Windows.Forms.Form
declares properties :
Name, Text
Controls (container)
fires events :
System.EventHandler Load

.NET / C# web service
- actually part of ASP.NET
- uses .asmx file to bind server to code
- C# :
- web service derives from System.Web.Services.WebService
- class must be public, must have public constructor
- has [WebService] attribute
paramters :
- Description : info
- Name : default = class name
- Namespace : XML-namespace
- every exposed service method should have attribute
[WebMethod]
parameters include :
-Description : info
-EnableSession : default = false
- MessageName : default = method name

124
.NET / C# web service
web server
- runs .asmx -file
- locates class files referred
- loads, runs and manages code
client
- statically retrieves WSDL document
- generates and compiles proxy class
- instantiates service proxy
- call methods on the proxy

125
Hello Service
Server side
Create ASP.NET Web Service project
File -> New -> Web Site
ASP.NET Web Service template
Edit [WebService] attribute (if necessary)
Add class logic, give any WS method [WebMethod] attribute
Build project
Run Project
Check if service is running (WSDL-file)
http://localhost:1665/WebSite1/?.asmx ? WSDL
Invoke method from browser to check proper functioning

126
Hello Service
Service.asmx
<%@ WebService Language="C#"
CodeBehind="~/App_Code/Service.cs"
Class="Service" %>

127
Hello Service

using System;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.Services;
using System.Web.Services.Protocols;
[WebService(Namespace = "http://tempuri.org/")]
[WebServiceBinding(ConformsTo = WsiProfiles.BasicProfile1_1)]
public class Service : System.Web.Services.WebService
{
public Service () {
//Uncomment the following line if using designed components
//InitializeComponent();
}
[WebMethod]
public string HelloWorld(string e) {
return "Hello World there, "+e;
}

Hello ServiceService invocation from browser
(http://localhost:1655/WebSite1/Service.asmx?op=HelloWorld)
Answer :
<string>Hello World there, MyName</string>

130
Hello Service
Client side
Create Windows Console project (or GUI project ...)
Open WS project and add to current solution
Add Web Reference
-> Browse local host
-> Select Web Reference (= namespace for proxy)
(Here : HelloService)
Add client code
-> instantiate proxy object
-> call WS methods on proxy

131
Hello Service
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Text;
namespace ConsoleApplication3
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
HelloService.Service s = new HelloService.Service();
Console.WriteLine(" -> " + s.HelloWorld("Georgie "));
}
}
}
-> Hello World there, Georgie
