any good articles that explains framework

[cmrhema]

Hi,

Of course I know its a vague question, but can anyone provide me with links of some real good articles that explains .net framework.
I mean fully which includes clr, cls, garbage collection.

Thanks

Vague questions... Vague answers...
.NET framework is about to roll out version 4... so which version of the framework are open to using? Some companies for example limit to framework 2 for compatibility reasons.

And 'garbage collection' isn't as much a framework thing is a managed language thing: C# versus (unmanaged) C++

My advice is to go to Barnes & Noble (or your favorite book store or library), get a cuppa from their coffee bar and take up residence in one of their plushy chairs and start reading books. Get enough understanding of the things you are interested in to be able to direct your on-line research.

Of course, since its a Microsoft framework, that's a good place to start too.

CLR via C# by Jeffrey Richter is the right book.

Have fun...there is literally years of information there. More specific questions will get you more specific answers.

But my best advice to you is to get Visual Studio (or one of the express editions for free) and start coding a project. Intellisense (the popups that help you autocomplete your code) has helped me learn more about the language and the framework than any other tool, except maybe the MSDN.

Try simple test projects for each small component. Write a project that reads/writes files and streams so you can learn the System.IO namespace. Write one that spawns threads so you can learn System.Threading. Experimenting will teach you so much.

Thanks InsertAlias. Actually I am a programmer myself, but sometimes I wont be knowing simple things that I never worked on. So I thought how about everything having in a simple nutshell. I agree its impossible to cover such a vast topic in a single book, but nevertheless thought why not place the question and get some good answers.
And thanks I got one.

I have found that Google + MSDN = an amazing development tool. I forget how to do simple things all the time =P and a quick google that sends me to the MSDN usually gets me back on track quickly.

I do understand your concern, it's hard to search for something when you don't know where to start. So in that respect I'd suggest picking up a (any) C# book from your local book store. That should get you started enough to know how to do the simple things, and how to ask the right questions for the more complicated things.

Have fun and good luck.
