Microsoft ASP. Net Overview
What is ASP .Net ?


   ASP.NET       provides    a   programming     model and
    infrastructure that offers the needed services for
    programmers to develop Web-based applications.
   ASP.NET is a part of the .NET Framework, the
    programmers can make use of the managed Common
    Language Runtime (CLR) environment, type safety, and
    inheritance etc to create Web-based applications.
   You can develop your ASP.NET Web-based applications
    in any .NET complaint languages such as Microsoft
    Visual Basic, Visual C#, and JScript.NET.
   Developers can effortlessly access the advantage of
    these technologies, which consist of a managed
    Common Language Runtime environment, type safety,
    inheritance, and so on. With the aid of Microsoft
    VisualStudio.NET Web development becomes easier.
Advantages of ASP. Net
    ASP.NET is Part of the .NET Framework
    ASP.NET Pages are compiled
    XML-Based
    Code-Behind logic
    ASP.NET Pages are built with Server Controls
Advantages of Asp. Net contd..
    ASP.NET is Part of the .NET Framework
    The .NET Framework comprises over 3,400 classes that we can employ in our ASP.NET
     applications. We can use the classes in the .NET Framework to develop any type of
     applications.
    ASP.NET Pages are compiled
    When an ASP.NET page is first requested, it is compiled and cached on the server. This
     means that an ASP.NET page performs very rapidly. All ASP.NET code is compiled rather
     than interpreted, which permits early binding, strong typing, and just-in-time (JIT) compiling to
     native code.
    XML-Based
    ASP.NET configuration settings are stored in XML-based files, which are human readable
     and writable. Each one of our applications can have a different configuration file and we can
     extend the configuration scheme according to our necessities.
    Code-Behind logic
    The main problem with ASP Classic pages is that an *.asp page does not yield modularized
     code. Both HTML and Script are present in a single page. But Microsoft's ASP.NET
     implementation contains a new-fangled method to break up business logic code from
     presentation code.
    ASP.NET Pages are built with Server Controls
    We can easily build complex Web pages by bring together the pages out of ASP.NET server
     controls. For example, by adding validation controls to a page, we can easily validate form
     data.
ASP. net Contd..




      Developers can build their works in these
       forms
       (a) Web Forms.
       (b) Web Services.
Web Forms
    Web Forms permits us to build powerful
     forms-based Web pages. When building
     these pages, we can use Web Forms
     controls to create common UI elements
     and program them for common tasks.
     These controls permit us to rapidly build
     up a Web Form.
Web Services



     Web services enable the exchange of data in client-
      server or server-server scenarios, using standards like
      HTTP, SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol) and
      XML messaging to move data across firewalls. XML
      provides meaning to data, and SOAP is the protocol
      that allows web services to communicate easily with
      one another. Web services are not tied to a particular
      component technology or object-calling convention. As
      a result, programs written in any language, using any
      component model, and running on any operating
      system       can      access       Web       services.
Why We need ASP. Net ?


   Compiled applications – no more server script
   Multi-language support – vb, c#, …
   Language enhancements – OOP, …
   Event-driven controls
   Code and content separation
   Configuration enhancements
   Easier deployment
   Debugging improvements
   Benefits of the CLR
   Benefits of the .NET Framework library
   Multi-Processor support
   Consistent object model
   Integrated dev environment with VS.NET
Web Project Files in VS.NET




   Typical files:
    WebForm1.aspx + WebForm1.cs (or .vb)
    AssemblyInfo.cs (or .vb)
    Web.config
    Global.asax + Global.cs (or .vb)
    Styles.css
    MyProj.vsdisco
    /bin:
       .dll (compiled code in /bin folder)

       .pdb (debug symbols)
Web Project Files in VS.NET contd..


Other files you may see:
 .ascx – User control
 .asmx – Web service file
 .axd – Trace file
 .xsd – Typed dataset + class file
 .cs or .vb – Class or VB Module file
 .resx – resource files
 + other project-specific files
Features of ASP. Net




   Intrinsic Objects overcomes from ASP – ASP.Net
    Request (HttpRequest)
    Response (HttpResponse)
    Application (HttpApplicationState)
    Session (HttpSessionState)
    Server (HttpServerUtility)
    Context (HttpContext)
    Trace (TraceContext)
Useful Page Objects


   User – of type IPrincipal and contains user and security
    information (IsInRole & Name…)
  Cache – for accessing the ASP.NET caching
    infrastructure programmatically
 Directives
    <% @ directive attribute=value %>
 @Page – for web pages
  @Control – for user controls
  @Reference – for registering a control on a page
  @OutputCache – for setting page caching options
    (Page) or fragment caching options (Control)
  Not case-sensitive
Controls



    Web Server Controls
       Automatic Browser Customization

       Datagrid, textbox, dropdown…

       Validation Controls

    HTML Server Controls (using runat=”Server”)
    Custom Controls
       User Controls

       Composite Custom Controls
Configuration



    A look at the Web.config File
       <appSettings> - used for your own settings
        (connection strings,…)
       <authentication> - how you determine who the user is

       <authorization> - what the user has access to

       <customErrors> - to redirect users to “nice” error
        pages
       <trace> - to control tracing in the application

    Custom configuration sections
    Elements & attributes are case-sensitive
Session State




    Modes:
       InProc – similar to old ASP

       StateServer – a windows service

       SqlServer – state stored in SQL Server

       Off

    Cookieless – uses a URL identifier
Building and Deploying




      Projects are compiled
         Note: changes to aspx pages may not require
          recompilation
      Compared to ASP script interpretation
      At Runtime (after you’ve built your project file):
         Step 1: the aspx page is compiled to a temporary
          dll and cached, if not already
         Step 2: the page is run

      Building in Debug vs. Release (pdb files /
       performance)
Design Time               Run Time

                                  Inherits from
System.Web.UI.Page

            Inherits from
                            WebForm1.aspx
 WebForm1.cs/.vb
                                     Compiles Into

            Compiles Into    temporary.dll

   MyProject.dll

 WebForm1 class
                                                  HTML
Tracing



      Trace. Write & Trace. Warn
      Configuring Tracing
         Per application or per page

         Enabled, request Limit, page Output, …

      Disable tracing on production applications; you can
       leave the Trace. Write methods without any impact to
       performance.
Preparing for ASP.NET


     Use Option Explicit
     Avoid using default properties
     Use parentheses and the Call keyword
     Avoid nested include files
     Organize utility functions into single files
     Try to separate code and content
Preparing for ASP.NET



      Avoid declaring functions inside <% %> delimiters–
       use <script></script>
       Use Response.Write() instead of functions that emit
       HTML ( %> <html>… <% )
      Explicitly free resources (call Close() methods)
      Avoid mixing languages in a single page
