C# software

Hello

I need to ask something? Do I need Visual Studio .NET if I want to work with
C# or is there any free software I can use.

Thanks.

You can download the .NET Framework SDK.
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...1-A333C6B9181D

The .NET Framework Software Development Kit (SDK) includes everything
developers need to write, build, test, and deploy .NET Framework
applications - documentation, samples, and command-line tools and compilers.

Cheers

If you are a student, you could purchase the development tools from
Microsoft pretty cheap. If you are just starting this is the way to go.

Hello Rene!

u told me something about students. I guess they sell the stuff to everyone
on the same price, or may be it doesnt have the full functinality of a
professional ed.

I would recommend SharpDevelop

Pros
1. It's OpenSource
2. It looks very similar to VS.NET

Cons
1. It has no built-in debugger

Hi,

The academic versions are not sold for the same price. But I guess a few
features might be missing - but these would be items that wouldn't be of for
you right now - like architect level features etc.

Link for academic licensing and prices:
http://www.microsoft.com/Education/U...icPricing.aspx

Link to VSNET 2003 Academic version:

I believe that here in the USA, the software that is sold to student has all
the functionality of the normal software. The only thing is that you have to
agree to some kind of license where you promise that you wont use the
software for profit.

I remember purchasing the old Visual Basic 6 package from college, it was
dirt-cheap and it had all of the functionality. That was a couple of years,
who know what is going on today.

Hi

If you want to get started without shelling out for VS, then I have some
links on getting started on my site below

http://www.publicjoe.f9.co.uk/csharp/csharp01.html
http://www.publicjoe.f9.co.uk/csharp/cs01a.html

This will allow you to build C# apps as well as VB apps, with the
sharpdevelop IDE.

You can also download the new Visual C# Express Beta from
http://lab.msdn.microsoft.com/expres...p/default.aspx.

I also have a small but growing tutorial, and a list of free chapters on my
web site, 55 to date, just follow the links in my signature.

Hope this helps
