Visual Basic - VB.net Applications

Visual Basic .NET is a multi-purpose computer programming language from Microsoft that is suitable for most development needs. The language is designed with Rapid Application Development in mind, providing several tools to shorten development time. Visual Basic .NET (VB.NET) is an object-oriented computer programming language that can be viewed as an evolution of Microsoft's Visual Basic (VB) which is generally implemented on the Microsoft .NET Framework. The original Visual Basic .NET was released alongside Visual C# and ASP.NET in 2002. Significant changes broke backward compatibility with older versions and ofcourse caused an uproar within the developer community. Visual Basic .NET 2003 was released with version 1.1 of the .NET Framework. New features included support for the .NET Compact Framework and a better VB upgrade wizard.

Visual Basic 2005 is the name used to refer to the update to Visual Basic .NET, Microsoft having decided to drop the .NET portion of the title with this version.

For this release, Microsoft added many features, including:

• Edit and Continue
• Design-time expression evaluation.
• The My pseudo-namespace (overview, details), which provides:
  • easy access to certain areas of the .NET Framework that otherwise require significant code to access
  • dynamically-generated classes (notably My.Forms)
• Improvements to the VB-to-VB.NET converter
• The Using keyword, simplifying the use of objects that require the Dispose pattern to free resources
• Just My Code, which hides boilerplate code written by the Visual Studio .NET IDE
• Data Source binding, easing database client/server development.
