.NET Interview Questions And Answers for Freshers Paper-1


1. What is .NET?
Ans: .NET is essentially a framework for software development.
It is similar in nature to any other software development framework (like J2EE etc) in that it provides a set of runtime containers/capabilities, and a rich set of pre-built functionality in the form of class libraries and APIs.

The .NET Framework is an environment for building, deploying, and running Web Services and other applications.
It consists of three main parts:
  • Common Language Runtime
  • Framework classes
  • ASP.NET
2. How many languages .NET is supporting now?
Ans: When .NET was introduced it came with several languages. VB.NET, C#, COBOL and Perl, etc. Totally 44 languages are supported.

3. How is .NET able to support multiple languages?
Ans: A language should comply with the Common Language Runtime standard to become a .NET language. In .NET, code is compiled to Microsoft Intermediate Language (MSIL for short). This is called as Managed Code. This Managed code is run in .NET environment. So after compilation to this IL the language is not a barrier. A code can call or use a function written in another language.

4. How ASP .NET different from ASP?
Ans: Scripting is separated from the HTML, Code is compiled as a DLL, these DLLs can be executed on the server.

5. What is smart navigation?
Ans: The cursor position is maintained when the page gets refreshed due to the server side validation and the page gets refreshed.

6. What is view state?
Ans: The web is stateless. But in ASP.NET, the state of a page is maintained in the in the page itself automatically. How? The values are encrypted and saved in hidden controls. this is done automatically by the ASP.NET. This can be switched off / on for a single control

7. How do you validate the controls in an ASP .NET page?
Ans: Using special validation controls that are meant for this. We have Range Validator, Email Validator.

8. Can the validation be done in the server side? Or this can be done only in the Client side?
Ans: Client side is done by default. Server side validation is also possible. We can switch off the client side and server side can be done.

9. How to manage pagination in a page?
Ans: Using pagination option in DataGrid control. We have to set the number of records for a page, then it takes care of pagination by itself.

10. What is ADO .NET and what is difference between ADO and ADO.NET?
Ans: ADO.NET is stateless mechanism. I can treat the ADO.Net as a separate in-memory database where in I can use relationships between the tables and select insert and updates to the database. I can update the actual database as a batch.

11. Observations between VB.NET and VC#.NET?
Ans: Choosing a programming language depends on your language experience and the scope of the application you are building. While small applications are often created using only one language, it is not uncommon to develop large applications using multiple languages.

For example, if you are extending an application with existing XML Web services, you might use a scripting language with little or no programming effort.

For client-server applications, you would probably choose the single language you are most comfortable with for the entire application. For new enterprise applications, where large teams of developers create components and services for deployment across multiple remote sites, the best choice might be to use several languages depending on developer skills and long-term maintenance expectations.

The .NET Platform programming languages - including Visual Basic .NET, Visual C#, and Visual C++ with managed extensions, and many other programming languages from various vendors - use .NET Framework services and features through a common set of unified classes. The .NET unified classes provide a consistent method of accessing the platform's functionality. If you learn to use the class library, you will find that all tasks follow the same uniform architecture. You no longer need to learn and master different API architectures to write your applications.

In most situations, you can effectively use all of the Microsoft programming languages. Nevertheless, each programming language has its relative strengths and you will want to understand the features unique to each language. The following sections will help you choose the right programming language for your application.

Visual Basic .NET :
Visual Basic .NET is the next generation of the Visual Basic language from Microsoft. With Visual Basic you can build .NET applications, including Web services and ASP.NET Web applications, quickly and easily. Applications made with Visual Basic are built on the services of the common language runtime and take advantage of the .NET Framework.

Visual Basic has many new and improved features such as inheritance, interfaces, and overloading that make it a powerful object-oriented programming language. Other new language features include free threading and structured exception handling. Visual Basic fully integrates the .NET Framework and the common language runtime, which together provide language interoperability, garbage collection, enhanced security, and improved versioning support. A Visual Basic support single inheritance and creates Microsoft intermediate language (MSIL) as input to native code compilers.

Visual Basic is comparatively easy to learn and use, and Visual Basic has become the programming language of choice for hundreds of thousands of developers over the past decade. An understanding of Visual Basic can be leveraged in a variety of ways, such as writing macros in Visual Studio and providing programmability in applications such as Microsoft Excel, Access, and Word.

Visual Basic provides prototypes of some common project types, including:
  • Windows Application.
  • Class Library.
  • Windows Control Library.
  • ASP.NET Web Application.
  • ASP.NET Web Service.
  • Web Control Library.
  • Console Application.
  • Windows Service.
  • Windows Service.

Visual C# .NET:
Visual C# (pronounced C sharp) is designed to be a fast and easy way to create .NET applications, including Web services and ASP.NET Web applications. Applications written in Visual C# are built on the services of the common language runtime and take full advantage of the .NET Framework.

C# is a simple, elegant, type-safe, object-oriented language recently developed by Microsoft for building a wide range of applications. Anyone familiar with C and similar languages will find few problems in adapting to C#. C# is designed to bring rapid development to the C++ programmer without sacrificing the power and control that are a hallmark of C and C++. Because of this heritage, C# has a high degree of fidelity with C and C++, and developers familiar with these languages can quickly become productive in C#.

C# provides intrinsic code trust mechanisms for a high level of security, garbage collection, and type safety. C# supports single inheritance and creates Microsoft intermediate language (MSIL) as input to native code compilers.

C# is fully integrated with the .NET Framework and the common language runtime, which together provide language interoperability, garbage collection, enhanced security, and improved versioning support. C# simplifies and modernizes some of the more complex aspects of C and C++, notably namespaces, classes, enumerations, overloading, and structured exception handling. C# also eliminates C and C++ features such as macros, multiple inheritance, and virtual base classes.

For current C++ developers, C# provides a powerful, high-productivity language alternative.

Visual C# provides prototypes of some common project types, including:
  • Windows Application.
  • Class Library.
  • Windows Control Library.
  • ASP.NET Web Application.
  • ASP.NET Web Service.
  • Web Control Library.
  • Console Application.
  • Windows Service.
