This course provides a practical, hands-on coverage of developing Web applications using ASP.NET and VB.NET and introduces Web services.
ASP.NET is introduced as a new Web programming platform that overcomes a number of limitations of ASP. Its architecture is outlined, including the role of compilation, the Page class and code-behind. Web Forms are introduced, including server controls, viewstate, life cycle, and the event model. Request/response HTTP programming using ASP.NET is covered.
Visual Studio .NET is used to greatly simplify the development of ASP.NET Web applications, including facilitating UI design. Deployment issues are discussed. ASP.NET Web applications are covered, including issues of application and session state and the use of cookies. Server controls represent an important innovation in ASP.NET and are covered in detail, including validation, rich controls, and user controls.
Configuration and security are covered. There is an introduction to caching in ASP.NET, which provides an effective mechanism for optimizing the performance of your ASP.NET application. Diagnostics and debugging are covered, including the use of tracing and performance counters. The architecture of the HTTP pipeline is described, including handlers and modules. The use of ASP.NET and ADO.NET for accessing databases is covered. Web services are introduced.
