Most programs that C-NET airs are sponsored by one of our member organizations. As members, they ask us to cover certain meetings or events. If there is something you would like to see on C-NET, contact the appropriate member agency. If you are unsure of who to call, get in touch with us and we will try to steer you in the right direction.

Because of the garbage collection algorithm. The .NET garbage collector works by periodically running through a list of all the objects that are currently being referenced by an application. All the objects that it doesn't find during this search are ready to be destroyed and the memory reclaimed. The implication of this algorithm is that the runtime doesn't get notified immediately when the final reference on an object goes away - it only finds out during the next 'sweep' of the heap.

Assuming that you have successfully installed C-Sharpener For VB, the menu option should automatically appear. If it doesn't appear, then try the following: Turn on the checkbox to the left of C-Sharpener For VB and click the OK button. The menu option should now appear.

This project is my hobby and the last thing I want to do in my spare time was use a language or environment I don't enjoy (I code on Macs during the day, and that's enough pain ^_^). I like C#, and I love Visual Studio. Just about any argument you can create against it can be countered, so don't even try. If you don't like it, you don't have to use it; I know that this is certainly my philosophy with other languages/environments!

The TubeSock installer will check for .NET 2.0 and, if it's missing, offer to install it. If for some reason you can't use this feature of the installer, you can download .NET 2.0 from Microsoft here: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx

NET is a general-purpose software development platform, similar to Java. At its core is a virtual machine that turns intermediate language (IL) into machine code. High-level language compilers for C#, VB.NET and C++ are provided to turn source code into IL. C# is a new programming language, very similar to Java.

Visitors to the House Gallery or Viewers of C-SPAN are often surprised to see that a majority of Members of the House are not present during debate, speeches or other business conducted on the floor. There are several reasons that this situation exists. While Representatives are required to be on the floor of the U.S.

It's not trivial to implement nested functions such that they have the proper access to local variables in the containing function(s), so they were deliberately left out of C as a simplification. (gcc does allow them, as an extension.) For many potential uses of nested functions (e.g. qsort comparison functions), an adequate if slightly cumbersome solution is to use an adjacent function with static declaration, communicating if necessary via a few static variables.

Make sure your C# code conforms to the Common Language Subset (CLS). To help with this, add the [assembly:CLSCompliant(true)] global attribute to your C# source files. The compiler will emit an error if you use a C# feature which is not CLS-compliant.

C# is a new language designed by Microsoft to work with the .NET framework. In their "Introduction to C#" whitepaper, Microsoft describe C# as follows: C# is a simple, modern, object oriented, and type-safe programming language derived from C and C++. C# (pronounced "C sharp") is firmly planted in the C and C++ family tree of languages, and will immediately be familiar to C and C++ programmers. C# aims to combine the high productivity of Visual Basic and the raw power of C++.

Many people, including myself and the C# language designers, believe that 'with' often harms readability, and is more of a curse than a blessing. For more information, see the Ask a C# Language Designer page.

C# (and .NET in general) has multiple inheritance of interface (meaning that you can implement many interfaces in a type) but only single inheritance of implementation (meaning that you can only derive a class from one other class - which may, itself derive from another, etc). (I'll get round to the actual reasoning behind this sooner or later...)

Checked exceptions are a very hotly debated topic in some circles, particularly for experienced Java developers moving to, or additionally learning, C#. Here are some resources that discuss the issue in depth: Note that without the CLR itself supporting checked exceptions, it would be effectively impossible for C# to do so alone.

The Objective C Runtime Library provides C functions and data structures required to execute an Objective C program. The GNU Objective C Runtime Library offers everything NeXT's runtime does, including Categories, Protocols, '+poseAs:', thread-safety, class initialization on demand, delayed loading of classes, and initialization of static instances (such as @""-style string objects). GNU's runtime provides "selector-types" along with each selector; NeXT's does not.

Control-C on Unix systems is an "interrupt" character; it is supposed to stop whatever the current program is doing. Many programs react to control-C by just quitting. But in many interactive programs, such as less and vi, control-C stops whatever the program was doing and returns the program to an "idle" state, where it's just waiting for a command. For example, in less you can use control-C to stop a long search, or to stop the F command, without quitting the program.

C-NET is not a public access channel--it is a government and education access channel. Our programming is sponsored by our member organizations. A public access channel allows any individual or group an opportunity to produce their own show. Our programs are approved and sponsored by our members. We do offer the chance for individuals interested in video production to get involved as volunteers.
