Managed
Code
Perhaps one of the most important
aspects of developing an application that uses the .NET Framework, is that it
uses what is known as "Managed Code". Unfortunately, since many people
automatically think of "Web Services" when they think of .NET, the apparent
value of Managed Code is often misunderstood. Some programmers might even feel
that since they aren't needing to do Web Services programming that there isn't
anything in .NET that is useful to them. Nothing could be further from the
truth.
The .NET Framework in general, and
Managed Code in specific, represent the future direction that Microsoft is
heading in the programming model that will be used for developing all Windows
applications. In "Longhorn", the codename for the next version of Windows, we
will expose an entirely managed API for developing applications with, and this
will be the primary method for developing applications for "Longhorn". You can
find out much more about "Longhorn" by attending the upcoming Professional Developers Conference
(PDC) in Los Angeles on October 26-30th, but in the
meantime I recommend that you watch this episode to check out the benefits of
Managed Code as used within the .NET Framework.
Joining us in this episode will be
Brad Abrams and Anders Hejlsberg to discuss the overall
architectural issues involved with Managed Code, as well as Nick Hodapp
and Chris Sells to show us some of the programming benefits that are
gained by using Managed Code.
