  2. VB.NET Solutions & Projects • A solution is a container for projects and files • Solution files (.sln, .suo) • Multi-language support • A project is a container for a VB application (.vbproj) • Visual Basic source files contain classes, forms, modules, etc. (.vb) University of South Alabama School of CIS

  3. Types of VB Projects • Select from New Project Dialog • These templates and more… • Windows Application • ASP.NET Web Application • ASP.NET Web Service App. • Class Library • Web Control Library • Console Application University of South Alabama School of CIS

  4. Assemblies • Projects are compiled into assemblies • The reusable, versionable, self-describing building blocks of .NET applications • Which consist of a number of executable files (.exe, .dll) and resource files • Some predefined assemblies are provided in the .NET Framework • Are created automatically upon compilation University of South Alabama School of CIS

  5. Overview of the Visual Studio IDE • Visual Studio has one IDE for all .NET languages, but it can be customized • through “My Profile” on the Start Page • Set to “Visual Basic Developer” for this class • Solutions encompass multiple languages, i.e. VB.NET and C# in the same solution • Has built-in Web browser University of South Alabama School of CIS
