CIS162AD2 Introduction to C# Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) C# History (brief) Compiling Process Categories of Programming Errors

Slide 3

CIS162AD3 Programming Programming is solving a problem using a computer. A program is a set of specific instructions for a computer to follow. It is a complex process and each program takes on a life of its own called SDLC. SDLC Software Development Life Cycle

Slide 4

CIS162AD4 SDLC Software Development Life Cycle (Program Development Cycle) There are various methodologies to develop programs, but most follow the same process. The actual name for each step in the process may vary by vendor.

Slide 5

CIS162AD5 SDLC 3 Phases, 8 Steps Problem Solving Phase Problem Definition Algorithm Design Implementation Phase Build, Test, Install, and Train Support Phase Maintenance Obsolete

Slide 6

CIS162AD6 SDLC - Problem Solving Phase 1. Problem definition (Analysis of the task) Users need a form to do a Sales Order Calculation (qty, price, tax, freight) 2. Algorithm Design (Solution) Design the interface. Desk check with common and extreme data. Programming language not necessarily selected yet.

Slide 7

CIS162AD7 Problem Solving Diagrams Analysis Diagrams / Tools Data Flow Diagram (DFD) Entity Relationship Diagrams (ERD) Functional Descriptions Use Case Diagrams (Object-Oriented) Design Diagrams / Tools Input Output Charts (IPO) Flowcharts Structure Charts Class Diagrams (Object-Oriented) Diagrams are independent of programming languages. We will see some examples of design diagrams throughout the course.

Slide 8

CIS162AD8 SDLC Implementation Phase 3. Implement or Build (Code the program). 4. Test the program using test data. Actual output must match expected results. 5. Deploy or install May require data conversion or hardware upgrades. 6. Training & User Documentation.

Slide 9

CIS162AD9 SDLC Support Phase 7. Maintenance change program as needed new tax rates, new freight carrier, zip+4, Y2K, new area code. 8. Obsolete program is discarded due to requiring too much effort to correct or new technology (DOS -> Windows).

Slide 11

CIS162AD11 Programming Categories Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) Emphasis is on identifying objects in a problem (student, faculty, etc). Objects are then categorized into classes (person). Classes are used in programs to create and manipulate objects. objCustomer = new clsCustomer; Procedural Programming Emphasis is on identifying the procedures or steps to solve a problem and then creating a program as the solution. Event Programming Usually related to GUI programming. Program reacts to events, such as a user clicking on a mouse. All of these techniques will be used throughout our C#.NET assignments.

Slide 12

CIS162AD12 History of C# In 2000 Microsoft released the.Net programming platform. Microsoft included its new language C# (pronounced C-Sharp). Roots are in C, C++, and Java. .Net includes a rich library of pre-built components that are shared among the.Net languages such as Visual Basic (VB). If you know VB, you should recognize some of the classes and methods that are used in C#.

Slide 13

CIS162AD13 IDE Software C# programs are created in a GUI IDE. GUI : Graphical User Interface IDE : Integrated Development Environment C# IDE provides the tools and capabilities to create very powerful and flexible programs. Can create Forms, Classes, Programs, Database connections, and many other things. The IDE includes a smart editor, compiler, linker, and debugger.

Slide 14

CIS162AD14 Key Elements of a C# Program Design the forms (user interface). Design the methods that will be executed. Create forms using various control objects. Write methods that react to object events. Each statement must end with a semi-colon. Most blocks of code required an open and close brace { }. private void calculateButton_Click() { int intQuanity; decimal decPrice; }

Slide 15

CIS162AD15 C# to Machine Language C# programs are typed in as text. Programs have a.cs extension. CS1Form.cs Form Resources have a.resx extension. CS1Form.resx Must be converted to machine language. How? By compiling

Slide 16

CIS162AD16 Compiler and Linker Compiler Verifies the program is coded with commands it recognizes and that the proper syntax was used. Creates an object file (machine language). Linker Combines the programs object file with object code of standard routines from the library. Creates the final executable file (.exe). In the.Net Framework, Common Language Runtime (CLR) is the linker.

Slide 17

CIS162AD17 Compiling IDE Editor Compiler Common Language Runtime (CLR) CS1.cs Microsoft Intermediate Language (MSIL) CS1.exe in memory Syntax Errors Warnings Library Objects

Slide 18

CIS162AD18 Syntax There are several languages to choose from. Each language has a set of commands that can be used. Each language has a set of syntax rules that must be followed. Syntax determines many things - like how commands are entered and how each command should end (period, semi-colon, etc).

Slide 19

CIS162AD19 Three Categories of Errors Syntax Errors and Warnings Logic Errors Run-time Errors Actually are logic errors.

Slide 20

CIS162AD20 Syntax Errors & Warnings Detected by compiler. Violation of grammar rules. Mistyped command. Compiler tells you what the error is or what it thinks it is. Compiler tries to tell you where the error occurred. Warnings Passes syntax rules but not normally coded this way. Programmer should check for possible logic error.

Slide 21

CIS162AD21 Logic Errors Detected and corrected by programmer. Program designed or written incorrectly. Output generated does NOT match expected output. Simple to very complex. Using * (multiply) instead of + (add) Test, test, test and verify results. This is where programmers earn their money.

Slide 22

CIS162AD22 Run-time Errors Usually discovered by user, but corrected by programmer. Program terminates unexpectedly. Error: access violation Usually based on a logic error. Divide by zero Users do something programmer didnt expect them to do. Processing unexpected input, such as letters instead of numbers. Users need to document what they were doing when the error occurred to help programmer.
