Pro C# 7: With.NET and.NET Core

The latest version of the C# programming language, C# 7, has been released, and with it, a plethora of new features and improvements that make it an even more powerful and efficient tool for building Windows applications, web applications, and mobile apps. In this article, we’ll take a closer look at what’s new in C# 7 and how it integrates with.NET and.NET Core.

What’s New in C# 7

C# 7 introduces several significant features that enhance the language’s functionality and usability. Some of the most notable new features include:

  1. Pattern Matching: This feature allows developers to use the is and switch statements to check the type of an object and perform actions based on that type.
  2. Tuples: C# 7 introduces a new type called ValueTuple, which allows developers to create and manipulate tuples, making it easier to return multiple values from a method.
  3. Deconstruction: This feature allows developers to extract values from tuples and other types into separate variables.
  4. Local Functions: C# 7 introduces the ability to define local functions, which can be defined inside other functions and can capture variables from the outer function.
  5. Throw Expressions: This feature allows developers to throw exceptions from expressions, making it easier to handle errors in a more concise way.

Integration with.NET and.NET Core

C# 7 is designed to work seamlessly with both.NET Framework and.NET Core..NET Core is a cross-platform, open-source version of the.NET Framework, which allows developers to build applications that can run on Windows, Linux, and macOS.

  1. Kevin Toruño

    Very complete book, looking in depth everything about .NET
    It literally looks about every aspect of C#, .Net, and ASP.net as well, the only thing is that it focuses too much on old .NET, and not that much on the new .Net, but that’s something he fixes on newer editions, where he purely focuses on new .NET.The only thing is that even though it touches so many aspects, it feels like it never gets too much in depth into an specific topic, which is understandable.Overall the Author did a great job.

  2. User

    Very deep and detailed book about whole C# and the key aspects.
    I’m only at the 10th chapter but already re-learned all the things that I learned in school in the last 2 years. I will update once I read more. Also the examples are very good and it’s easy to understandI bought this book to increase my knowledge in C# and it really helped me to advance in the language, understand what I’m doing and achieve better coding.

  3. Jimmy

    Despite being a technical book, it’s very readable.
    This is a great book. It’s well written, readable, complete, and does not put you to sleep. This should not be your first programming or C# book, But once you’ve gotten to a point where you’ve studied C# quite a bit, watched a bunch of videos, feel like you mostly understand C#, but still not confident that you can put it all together because you’ve still have a sense of vagueness about how it all fits, then this book is for you. I’m up to chapter six and have not gotten tired of the book yet.

    Excellent
    Over the years I have bought 3 editions of this book, and have liked all of them. It covers tons of stuff, in good detail, with very informative explanations. There is no comparison between a large, comprehensive, professional book like this and the typical PACKT books that seem to be pumped out every other week, and which contain far far less information, the English is usually hard to follow, and the code doesn’t work.

  5. CAM

    A Good Overall Review of C# 7
    There are a few minor mistakes, and many of the code examples could be better or (at least) made to be more relevant. However, this book does a fine job of thoroughly covering basic the information any serious C# developer should be aware of.

    It’s a great book! It is a very valuable book for those like me who knew nothing about programming in C # or object-oriented programming! The book is very well structured, clear and with many examples that facilitates understanding. I have the digital version.

    Complete and thorough coverage. Examples succinct and easy to follow with just enough detail to speedily grasp the concept and keep moving through the text. Excellent coverage of the very latest topics in the .NET space.

    Great Content
    One of the best explanations of the c# language in it’s entirety. Not for beginners.

  9. Nick

    As I was mostly interested in the language features and internals of C# and .NET, I read everything up to page 962, which is what I will review. These chapters discuss everything but WPF, ASP.NET and .NET Core.It only took a couple weeks to finish this, and I did it with lots of joy, so I want to start off by saying this book is very good.I believe it is targeted towards intermediate to professional developers (this is also the stated difficulty on the book cover).I find this book to be one of the best READING/TUTORING (not reference) books on the language for people who already have some experience with the language. It is meant to teach you ALL the LANGUAGE features, with pretty high level of detail, often looking at it from a lower level (by, but not limited to looking at the generated CIL).My favorite chapters would be those about the DLR and reflection. Even after several years of experience, I still learned a few new things. The way it was explained “under the hood” was very good.HOWEVER, the book is not perfect. While it is generally one of the best teaching book for the current language version for professionals, it sometimes misses some key points.For language features, I believe most features and principles are covered, except covariance and contravariance. At least I haven’t seen this being mentioned explicitly anywhere. This is very unfortunate, because it an essential feature of the language, and every professional developer should know these words.Also the chapter on parallel/multithreaded programming was very limited and some features such as the async/await keyword and exception handling in tasks and threads were very shortly explained. More specific synchronization mechanisms such as with the Semaphore class are nowhere mentioned. Several books are written on these topics alone, so you can imagine a few dozen pages on these topics in a 1000+ page book is not enough to be called “in-depth”.The chapter on I/O, and working with streams was ok. Oddly enough, pretty much all basic classes for file access were covered except System.IO.Path, again very essential IMO. I also felt like additional information about nested streams with using blocks could enhance this chapter.I was also hoping to find a few pages dedicated to equality, comparison and hashcodes somewhere in the book. I couldn’t find it.A few spelling errors are still in the book, but they are very obvious and shouldn’t prevent you from understanding what’s written.When you’ve read all this, you may think it’s not so good after all. Well, it is. In a 1000+ page book these cons are hardly noticeable. You can’t complain about something you don’t know. I just felt like I should mention the shortcomings that I personally experienced.It may not be worth 5 stars, but it certainly isn’t worth 4 stars.The reason I’m giving this 5 stars is because – again – it’s one of the best books for the right audience AND FOR THIS VERSION of the language. I just wished the authors didn’t skip the essential language parts. I would rather buy the book without a rapid look at GUI and web development. After all, you can’t go into much detail on these frameworks in roughly 300 pages. These 300-something pages should be used to cover the missing key language features and BCL classes.If you’re still feeling “empty” after reading this book I suggest the book “C# 5.0 Unleashed” by Bart De Smet. This covers the language in pretty much the highest level of detail you could desire, and it doesn’t miss anything. Unfortunately it’s isn’t updated for the latest version of the language. That would be my dream book, but I don’t know if it will ever happen.

    Zum Zeitpunkt meines Kaufes gab es nur 2 Rezensionen auf Amazon.de, beide in Englisch verfasst. Das macht zumindest etwas Sinn, da das Buch ebenfalls komplett in Englisch gehalten ist, und gute Sprachkenntnisse sind Vorraussetzung.C# und das .NET Framework (Bald nur noch “.NET 5” ohne “Framework” im Namen) sind so umfangreich, dass unmöglich ein einziges Buch den gesamten Umfang besprechen kann. Das gesagt: Dieses Buch kommt wohl so nahe heran, dieses Wunder zu bewerkstelligen, wie sonst kaum eines.Die Sprache ist präzise aber verständlich. Es wird gesagt, was gesagt werden muss, mit genug Geduld und Nachdruck, aber ohne die Zeit des Lesers mit unnötigen Blabla zu verschwenden. Ich bin oft beeindruckt, wie gut das Buch geschrieben ist, und es sich durch die verschiedenen Themen navigiert; stets bemüht, den Leser über die gesamte Reise mitzunehmen.Und diese Reise ist lang; das Buch behandelt sämtliche Ideen begonnen von dem grundsätzlichen Aufbau des Frameworks, bishin zu WPF (Und allem dazwischen). Während die Autoren offensichtlich viel Wissen über die Entwicklungsgeschichte des .NET Frameworks besitzen, und den Leser behutsam abholen, werden auch neue Entwicklungen aufmerksam verfolgt; und es gibt immer wieder Anmerkungen, dass bestimmte “ältere” Vorgangsweisen durch Features von neuen .NET Versionen vereinfacht oder abgelöst wurden.Zusammenfassend kann man sagen: Wenn Sie diesen Wälzer unter riesigem Zeitaufwand durchlesen, kennen Sie jedes wichtige Feature des Frameworks. Punkt.Das ist allerdings ein Kraftakt; wahrscheinlicher ist es, dass Sie das Buch als Nachschlagewerk verwenden, und kapitelweise lesen, was Sie gerade beschäftigt. Dafür ist es ebenfalls exzellent geeignet.Ich bin mit meinem Kauf hochzufrieden, und werde mir wohl auch den dann aktuellen Nachfolger in 4 oder 5 Jahren zulegen (Bis dahin habe ich es hoffentlich komplett durchgelesen ;)).

    Libro di dimensioni generose, spiegato approfonditamente nei suoi numerosi capitoli. Di livello avanzato, per chi parte da zero meglio scegliere i libri dello stesso argomento a livello più basso. Tre stelle (non cinque) per il pacco danneggiato che ha rovinato in parte il libro (qualche pagina spiegazzata alla fine) mettendolo solo pressa per qualche giorno il problema si è ridotto.

  12. Alan

    Todos los libros de esta editorial tienen una redacción bastante entendible, lo recomiendo mucho.

  13. Client d’Amazon

    je débute dans c# , j’attend avec impatience la version 8; En attendant aout j’ai préféré commencer avec cette édition!N’ayant pas un anglais parfait, j’ai malgré tout moins de mal à suivre ce livre en anglais que un autre livre traitant le meme sujet en Français !!!!J’en suis déjà à la 300ème page et je n’ai relevé aucunes erreurs ,même dans les exercices !Vivement la version 8 .
