Mastering C# and .NET Framework

Overview of this book

Mastering C# and .NET Framework will take you in to the depths of C# 6.0/7.0 and .NET 4.6, so you can understand how the platform works when it runs your code, and how you can use this knowledge to write efficient applications. Take full advantage of the new revolution in .NET development, including open source status and cross-platform capability, and get to grips with the architectural changes of CoreCLR. Start with how the CLR executes code, and discover the niche and advanced aspects of C# programming – from delegates and generics, through to asynchronous programming. Run through new forms of type declarations and assignments, source code callers, static using syntax, auto-property initializers, dictionary initializers, null conditional operators, and many others. Then unlock the true potential of the .NET platform. Learn how to write OWASP-compliant applications, how to properly implement design patterns in C#, and how to follow the general SOLID principles and its implementations in C# code. We finish by focusing on tips and tricks that you'll need to get the most from C# and .NET. This book also covers .NET Core 1.1 concepts as per the latest RTM release in the last chapter.

The role of Visio


Although it is considered part of the Microsoft Office Suite, it is actually delivered separately, and it's now part of Office 365 (online). As the company puts it, Visio's lemma is Complexity made simple, and it lets you build all sort of diagrams, which can even update dynamically (as the original data changes), covering hundreds of possible diagramming scenarios.

You can also use it in conjunction with Microsoft Project and other related tools, and its capability to import and incorporate external information makes it a perfect solution to integrate data from other sources and convert it into a useful diagram:

A first example

Let's imagine that we already have the list of participants in our Team Model. We have discussed which role is competent for each member with them, and this information is written in an Excel sheet, indicating name, role, and photo for every member of the team. Each of the six roles has been assigned to a different person, as defined in the Team Model...
