In this article, we are just proposing that why developers should opt for
.Net Technology instead of other major technologies.
First of all, what is .Net Technology? - .Net is an environment for building
and running software and web applications. It enables the software to become
platform and device independent. The .net Framework allows you to:
1)Apply common skills across a variety of devices, application types and
programming tasks. Thus, we can say that we have a pretty easy access to the
COM Components.
2) Has got Language Independence. Microsoft .Net Platform provides support
for a lot of languages
3) Simplified Deployment:
4) Security:
.Net applications are highly secure ones.
5) Faster development:
6) Base Class Library:
This is a library of functionalities available to the .Net Framework.
7) Portability:
The .Net framework is portable. Its platform independent.
The latest version of the .Net Framework is 4.0. A lot of the professionals
are still working on .Net Framework 3.5 and 3.0.
Last but not the least, we come to the much heated discussion. What's better
? .Net / JAVA.
There are a number of reasons why .Net is much better than JAVA.
1) .Net, first and foremost is a very fast development tool.
2) .Net, being a very fast development tool is much more cheaper than JAVA.
3) JAVA in itself is a language. Here, you can do only coding in JAVA. But
.Net is a development platform where you can use the coding languages
according to your convenience.
4) .Net's GUI is much better compared to JAVA's.

The .net Framework allows you to:
1)Apply common skills across a variety of devices, application types and programming tasks.
Computer Systems normally require during execution a lot of interaction between the older and newer applications. Through .Net Framework we can access the functionalities that is implemented in programs that execute outisde the .Net environment. Eg: Through .Net we can even access the Microsoft Office Products, Adobe Products etc.It can even use the Windows predefined DLLs. We can even access other Microsoft Components like Paint, Calculator etc.
Thus, we can say that we have a pretty easy access to the COM Components. COM components usually have an extension - .exe/dll/.ocx. But the extension is mostly irrelevant. In actual, it may refer to any object or application that contains reusable code and provides ways through which its associated data and methods could be accessed.
2) Has got Language Independence
Microsoft provides support for a lot of languages like
a) Microsoft Visual Basic
b) C#
c) J#
d) Microsoft Visual C++
e) Javascript
f) HTML
A programmer who is coding in C# can use the code written in Visual Basic. Similarly, a programmer who is coding in J# can use the code written in C#.
3) Simplified Deployment:
.Net framework has a very simplified deployment wizard so that the installation of the computer software could be managed easily.
4) Security:
.Net applications are highly secure ones. The framework has been designed in such a way so as to address small vulnerabilities such as buffer overflows.
5) Faster development:
Through .Net we can make compelling applications much faster.
6) Base Class Library:
This is a library of functionalities available to the .Net Framework. This porvides classes which consists of a number of common functions like - file reading/writing, database interaction, XML data manipulation etc.
7) Portability:
The .Net framework is portable. Its platform independent. Though till now, Microsoft has not implemented the full framework on any other system except its own. Yet Microsoft has already submitted specifications for Common Language Infrastructure (which includes all class libraries), C# language to bothe ECMA and ISO making them open standard. This makes it easily possible for the third parties to create compatible implementations of framework and its language on other platforms.
The latest veriosn of the .Net Framework is 4.0. A lot of the professionals are still working on .Net Framework 3.5 and 3.0.
Last but not the least, we come to the much heated discussion. What's better ? .Net / JAVA.
There are a number of reasons why .Net is much better than JAVA.
1) .Net, first and foremost is a very fast development tool. Applications that would take 1 month in .Net framework would take around 3 months in JAVA.
2) .Net, neing a very fast development tool is much more cheaper than JAVA.
3) JAVA in itself is a language. Here, you can do only coding in JAVA. But .Net is a development platform where you can use the coding languages according to your convenience. You have the options of using Visual C++, C#, J# or Visual Basic, whichever you feel most comfortable with.
4) JAVA GUI based programs look alien on the host operating systems. .Net's GUI is much better compared to JAVA's.
But still there are some disadvantages of the .Net Framework which as a developer we must keep in mind:
1) .Net Framework runs application in a managed environment which usually exhausts a lot of resources. This in comparison to other applications that utilise machine resources directly is much more.
2) Newer versions of .Net framework are only available on Windows 7/ Vista and above. if you need to make them work on OS like Windows XP, the you need to make some extra efforts. In the future more frameworks would evolve. With their evolution the support for the lower versions of the OS would not be practically possible. So, the user with the older OS would have to face lot of problems.
3) As we had already disucssed, .Net Framework's implementaions has been made open standard but yet its has fully been implemeted only on Windows. So, .Net Framework remains platform independent just on paper. Practically, its just possible to run .net Application on Windows OS as no other OS has yet implemented .Net framework for themselves.
We have discussed a lot on .Net Framework, its advantages amd disadvantages, its features. Now, we must move on to the real programming stuff. So, let's get started with .Net Programming. Let us just write a simple program for adding two numbers and then showing the result in a message box.
