C# and VB Courseware Updated to Visual Studio 2008 and .NET 3.5
July 3, 2008.
Object Innovations has updated its courseware on the C# and Visual Basic programming languages
to cover new features introduced with .NET 3.5 and Visual Studio 2008. These new features,
largely intended to support Language-Integrated Query (LINQ), include:
- Implicit typing (or local type inference)
- Object initializers
- Anonymous types
- Partial methods
- Extension methods
- Lambda expressions
- Query operators
The updated C# courses are:
The five-day course is intended to be fully accessible to programmers who do not already
have a strong background in object-oriented programming in C-like languages, such as C++ or Java.
It is ideal, for example, for Visual Basic 6 or COBOL programmers who desire to learn C#.
The two-day intensive course is designed for experienced programmers to help them quickly come up
to speed on the C# language.
The corresponding Visual Basic courses are:
The updated courses also use the Visual Studio 2008 integrated development environment
throughout. Classes still being run using Visual Studio 2005 should use the previous versions
of the courses, which remain available from Object Innovations.
The four-digit course numbers of the updated courses reflect an ongoing migration of
course numbers at Object Innovations from three to four digits.
Shipments of the updated courseware begin immediately.
