}
}

Design Goals of C#
The Big Ideas
 Component-orientation
 Everything is an object
 Robust and durable software
 Preserving your investment

Design Goals of C#
Component-Orientation
 C# is the first “Component-Oriented” language in
the C/C++ family
 What is a component?
 An independent module of reuse and deployment
 Coarser-grained than objects
(objects are language-level constructs)
 Includes multiple classes
 Often language-independent
 In general, component writer and user don’t know
each other, don’t work for the same company, and
don’t use the same language

Design Goals of C#
Component-Orientation
 Component concepts are first class
 Properties, methods, events
 Design-time and run-time attributes
 Integrated documentation using XML
 Enables “one-stop programming”
 No header files, IDL, etc.
 Can be embedded in ASP pages

Design Goals of C#
Everything is an Object
 Traditional views
 C++, Java™: Primitive types are “magic” and do not
interoperate with objects
 Smalltalk, Lisp: Primitive types are objects, but at
some performance cost
 C# unifies with no performance cost
 Deep simplicity throughout system
 Improved extensibility and reusability
 New primitive types: Decimal, SQL…
 Collections, etc., work for all types

Design Goals of C#
Robust and Durable Software
 Garbage collection
 No memory leaks and stray pointers
 Exceptions
 Type-safety
 No uninitialized variables, no unsafe casts
 Versioning
 Avoid common errors
 E.g. if (x = y) ...
 One-stop programming
 Fewer moving parts

Design Goals of C#
Preserving Your Investment
 C++ Heritage
 Namespaces, pointers (in unsafe code),
unsigned types, etc.
 Some changes, but no unnecessary sacrifices
 Interoperability
 What software is increasingly about
 C# talks to XML, SOAP, COM, DLLs, and any
.NET Framework language
 Increased productivity
 Short learning curve
 Millions of lines of C# code in .NET

Types
Overview
 A C# program is a collection of types
 Classes, structs, enums, interfaces, delegates
 C# provides a set of predefined types
 E.g. int, byte, char, string, object, …
 You can create your own types
 All data and code is defined within
a type
 No global variables, no global functions

Types
Overview
 Types contain:
 Data members
 Fields, constants, arrays
 Events
 Function members
 Methods, operators, constructors, destructors
 Properties, indexers
 Other types
 Classes, structs, enums, interfaces, delegates

Types
Overview
 Types can be instantiated…
 …and then used: call methods,
get and set properties, etc.
 Can convert from one type to another
 Implicitly and explicitly
 Types are organized
 Namespaces, files, assemblies
 There are two categories of types:
value and reference
 Types are arranged in a hierarchy

Types
Unified Type System
 Value types
 Directly contain data
 Cannot be null
 Reference types
 Contain references to objects
 May be null
int i = 123;
string s = "Hello world";
123
i
s "Hello world"

Types
Unified Type System
 Value types
 Primitives int i; float x;
 Enums enum State { Off, On }
 Structs struct Point {int x,y;}
 Reference types
 Root object
 String string
 Classes class Foo: Bar, IFoo {...}
 Interfaces interface IFoo: IBar {...}
 Arrays string[] a = new string[10];
 Delegates delegate void Empty();

Types
Unified Type System
Value (Struct) Reference (Class)
Variable holds Actual value Memory location
Allocated on Stack, member Heap
Nullability Always has value May be null
Default value 0 null
Aliasing (in a scope) No Yes
Assignment means Copy data Copy reference

Types
Unified Type System
 Benefits of value types
 No heap allocation, less GC pressure
 More efficient use of memory
 Less reference indirection
 Unified type system
 No primitive/object dichotomy

Types
Conversions
 Implicit conversions
 Occur automatically
 Guaranteed to succeed
 No information (precision) loss
 Explicit conversions
 Require a cast
 May not succeed
 Information (precision) might be lost
 Both implicit and explicit conversions can be
user-defined

Types
Conversions
int x = 123456;
long y = x; // implicit
short z = (short)x; // explicit
double d = 1.2345678901234;
float f = (float)d; // explicit
long l = (long)d; // explicit

Types
Unified Type System
 Everything is an object
 All types ultimately inherit from object
 Any piece of data can be stored, transported, and
manipulated with no extra work
MemoryStream FileStream
Stream Hashtable int double
object

Types
Unified Type System
 Polymorphism
 The ability to perform an operation on an object
without knowing the precise type of the object
void Poly(object o) {
Console.WriteLine(o.ToString());
}
Poly(42);
Poly(“abcd”);
Poly(12.345678901234m);
Poly(new Point(23,45));

Types
Unified Type System
 Question: How can we treat value and reference
types polymorphically?
 How does an int (value type) get converted into an
object (reference type)?
 Answer: Boxing!
 Only value types get boxed
 Reference types do not get boxed

Types
Unified Type System
 Boxing
 Copies a value type into a reference type (object)
 Each value type has corresponding “hidden”
reference type
 Note that a reference-type copy is made of the
value type
 Value types are never aliased
 Value type is converted implicitly to object, a
reference type
 Essentially an “up cast”

Types
Unified Type System
 Unboxing
 Inverse operation of boxing
 Copies the value out of the box
 Copies from reference type to value type
 Requires an explicit conversion
 May not succeed (like all explicit conversions)
 Essentially a “down cast”

Types
Unified Type System
 Boxing and unboxing
int i = 123;
object o = i;
int j = (int)o;
123
i
o
123
j
123
System.Int32

Types
Unified Type System
 Benefits of boxing
 Enables polymorphism across all types
 Collection classes work with all types
 Eliminates need for wrapper classes
 Replaces OLE Automation's Variant
 Lots of examples in .NET Framework
Hashtable t = new Hashtable();
t.Add(0, "zero");
t.Add(1, "one");
t.Add(2, "two");
string s = string.Format(
"Your total was {0} on {1}",
total, date);

Types
Unified Type System
 Disadvantages of boxing
 Performance cost
 The need for boxing will decrease when the CLR
supports generics (similar to C++ templates)

 Any class or struct implementing an interface must
support all parts of the contract
 Interfaces provide polymorphism

a particular interface
 Contain no implementation
 Must be implemented by a class or struct

Types

Program Structure
Overview
 Organizing Types
 Namespaces
 References
 Main Method
 Syntax

Program Structure
Organizing Types
 Physical organization
 Types are defined in files
 Files are compiled into
modules
 Modules are grouped
into assemblies
Assembly
Module
File
Type

Program Structure
Organizing Types
 Types are defined in files
 A file can contain multiple types
 Each type is defined in a single file
 Files are compiled into modules
 Module is a DLL or EXE
 A module can contain multiple files
 Modules are grouped into assemblies
 Assembly can contain multiple modules
 Assemblies and modules are often 1:1

Program Structure
Organizing Types
 Types are defined in ONE place
 “One-stop programming”
 No header and source files to synchronize
 Code is written “in-line”
 Declaration and definition are one and
the same
 A type must be fully defined in one file
 Can’t put individual methods in different files
 No declaration order dependence
 No forward references required

Program Structure
Namespaces
 Namespaces provide a way to
uniquely identify a type
 Provides logical organization of types
 Namespaces can span assemblies
 Can nest namespaces
 There is no relationship between namespaces
and file structure (unlike Java)
 The fully qualified name of a type includes all
namespaces

Program Structure
Namespaces
namespace N1 { // N1
class C1 { // N1.C1
class C2 { // N1.C1.C2
}
}
namespace N2 { // N1.N2
class C2 { // N1.N2.C2
}
}
}

Program Structure
Namespaces
 The using statement lets you use types without
typing the fully qualified name
 Can always use a fully qualified name
using N1;
C1 a; // The N1. is implicit
N1.C1 b; // Fully qualified name
C2 c; // Error! C2 is undefined
N1.N2.C2 d; // One of the C2 classes
C1.C2 e; // The other one

Program Structure
Namespaces
 The using statement also lets you create
aliases
using C1 = N1.N2.C1;
using N2 = N1.N2;
C1 a; // Refers to N1.N2.C1
N2.C1 b; // Refers to N1.N2.C1

Program Structure
Namespaces
 Best practice: Put all of your types in a unique
namespace
 Have a namespace for your company, project,
product, etc.
 Look at how the .NET Framework classes are
organized

Program Structure
References
 In Visual Studio you specify references
for a project
 Each reference identifies a specific assembly
 Passed as reference (/r or /reference)
to the C# compiler
csc HelloWorld.cs /reference:System.WinForms.dll

Program Structure
Namespaces vs. References
 Namespaces provide language-level naming
shortcuts
 Don’t have to type a long fully qualified name over
and over
 References specify which assembly to use

Program Structure
Main Method
 Execution begins at the static Main() method
 Can have only one method with one of
the following signatures in an assembly
 static void Main()
 static int Main()
 static void Main(string[] args)
 static int Main(string[] args)

Program Structure
Syntax
 Identifiers
 Names for types, methods, fields, etc.
 Must be whole word – no white space
 Unicode characters
 Begins with letter or underscore
 Case sensitive
 Must not clash with keyword
 Unless prefixed with @

 Block statements { ... } don’t need a semicolon

Statements
Syntax
 Comments
 // Comment a single line, C++ style
 /* Comment multiple
lines,
C style
*/

Statements
Statement Lists & Block Statements
 Statement list: one or more statements in
sequence
 Block statement: a statement list delimited by
braces { ... }
static void Main() {
F();
G();
{ // Start block

const int r = 123;
Console.WriteLine(pi * r * r);
int a;
int b = 2, c = 3;
a = 1;
Console.WriteLine(a + b + c);
}

Statements
 The scope of a variable or constant runs
from the point of declaration to the end of
the enclosing block

Statements
 Within the scope of a variable or constant it is an
error to declare another variable or constant with
the same name
{
int x;
{
int x; // Error: can’t hide variable x
}
}

Statements
Variables
 Variables must be assigned a value before they
can be used
 Explicitly or automatically
 Called definite assignment
 Automatic assignment occurs for static fields,
class instance fields and array elements
void Foo() {
string s;
Console.WriteLine(s); // Error
}

Statements
Labeled Statements & goto
 goto can be used to transfer control within or
out of a block, but not into a nested block
static void Find(int value, int[,] values,
out int row, out int col) {
int i, j;
for (i = 0; i < values.GetLength(0); i++)
for (j = 0; j < values.GetLength(1); j++)
if (values[i, j] == value) goto found;
throw new InvalidOperationException(“Not found");
found:
row = i; col = j;
}

Statements
Expression Statements
 Statements must do work
 Assignment, method call, ++, --, new
int a, b = 2, c = 3;
a = b + c;
a++;
MyClass.Foo(a,b,c);
Console.WriteLine(a + b + c);
a == 2; // ERROR!
}

Statements
if Statement
 Requires bool expression
int Test(int a, int b) {
if (a > b)
return 1;
else if (a < b)
return -1;
else
return 0;
}

Statements
switch Statement
 Can branch on any predefined type
(including string) or enum
 User-defined types can provide implicit conversion
to these types
 Must explicitly state how to end case
 With break, goto case, goto label, return,
throw or continue
 Eliminates fall-through bugs
 Not needed if no code supplied after the label

Statements
switch Statement
int Test(string label) {
int result;
switch(label) {
case null:
goto case “runner-up”;
case “fastest”:
case “winner”:
result = 1; break;
case “runner-up”:
result = 2; break;
default:
result = 0;
}
return result;
}

Statements
while Statement
 Requires bool expression
int i = 0;
while (i < 5) {
...
i++;
}
int i = 0;
do {
...
i++;
}
while (i < 5); while (true) {
...
}

Statements
for Statement
for (int i=0; i < 5; i++) {
...
}
for (;;) {
...
}

Statements
foreach Statement
 Iteration of arrays
public static void Main(string[] args) {
foreach (string s in args)
Console.WriteLine(s);
}

Statements
foreach Statement
 Iteration of user-defined collections
 Created by implementing IEnumerable
foreach (Customer c in customers.OrderBy("name")) {
if (c.Orders.Count != 0) {
...
}
}

Statements
Jump Statements
 break
 Exit inner-most loop
 continue
 End iteration of inner-most loop
 goto <label>
 Transfer execution to label statement
 return [<expression>]
 Exit a method
 throw
 See exception handling

Statements
Exception Handling
 Exceptions are the C# mechanism for handling
unexpected error conditions
 Superior to returning status values
 Can’t be ignored
 Don’t have to handled at the point they occur
 Can be used even where values are not returned
(e.g. accessing a property)
 Standard exceptions are provided

Statements
Exception Handling
 try...catch...finally statement
 try block contains code that could throw an
exception
 catch block handles exceptions
 Can have multiple catch blocks to handle different
kinds of exceptions
 finally block contains code that will always be
executed
 Cannot use jump statements (e.g. goto)
to exit a finally block

Statements
Exception Handling
 throw statement raises an exception
 An exception is represented as an instance of
System.Exception or derived class
 Contains information about the exception
 Properties
 Message
 StackTrace
 InnerException
 You can rethrow an exception, or catch
one exception and throw another

Statements
Exception Handling
try {
Console.WriteLine("try");
throw new Exception(“message”);
}
catch (ArgumentNullException e) {
Console.WriteLine(“caught null argument");
}
catch {
Console.WriteLine("catch");
}
finally {
Console.WriteLine("finally");
}

Statements
Synchronization
 Multi-threaded applications have to protect
against concurrent access to data
 Must prevent data corruption
 The lock statement uses an instance to provide
mutual exclusion
 Only one lock statement can have access to the
same instance
 Actually uses the .NET Framework
System.Threading.Monitor class to
provide mutual exclusion

Statements
Synchronization
public class CheckingAccount {
decimal balance;
public void Deposit(decimal amount) {
lock (this) {
balance += amount;
}
}
public void Withdraw(decimal amount) {
lock (this) {
balance -= amount;
}
}
}

Statements
using Statement
 C# uses automatic memory management
(garbage collection)
 Eliminates most memory management problems
 However, it results in non-deterministic
finalization
 No guarantee as to when and if object destructors
are called

Statements
using Statement
 Objects that need to be cleaned up after use
should implement the System.IDisposable
interface
 One method: Dispose()
 The using statement allows you to create an
instance, use it, and then ensure that Dispose
is called when done
 Dispose is guaranteed to be called, as if it were in a
finally block

Statements
using Statement
public class MyResource : IDisposable {
public void MyResource() {
// Acquire valuble resource
}
public void Dispose() {
// Release valuble resource
}
public void DoSomething() {
...
}
} using (MyResource r = new MyResource()) {
r.DoSomething();
} // r.Dispose() is called

Statements
checked and unchecked Statements
 The checked and unchecked statements allow
you to control overflow checking for integral-type
arithmetic operations and conversions
 checked forces checking
 unchecked forces no checking
 Can use both as block statements or
as an expression
 Default is unchecked
 Use the /checked compiler option to make
checked the default

Statements
Basic Input/Output Statements
 Console applications
 System.Console.WriteLine();
 System.Console.ReadLine();
 Windows applications
 System.WinForms.MessageBox.Show();
string v1 = “some value”;
MyObject v2 = new MyObject();
Console.WriteLine(“First is {0}, second is {1}”,
v1, v2);

Operators
Overview
 C# provides a fixed set of operators, whose
meaning is defined for the predefined types
 Some operators can be overloaded (e.g. +)
 The following table summarizes the C#
operators by category
 Categories are in order of decreasing precedence
 Operators in each category have the same
precedence

are right-associative
 Operations performed right to left
 x = y = z evaluates as x = (y = z)
 All other binary operators are left-associative
 Operations performed left to right
 x + y + z evaluates as (x + y) + z
 Use parentheses to control order
