Overview

  • Visual Basic .NET (VB.NET) is a simple, modern, high level object-oriented programming (OOP) language, multi-paradigm, execute on the .NET Framework. Microsoft introduced VB.NET in 2002 as the replacement to its original Visual Basic language. Along with Visual C#, is one of the main languages aiming the .NET framework.
  • VB.Net was developed to take benefit of the .NET framework-based classes and run-time environment. It was re-engineered by Microsoft as part of its .NET product group. VB supports inheritance, polymorphism, and abstraction.
  • Microsoft currently supplies two main editions of IDE for developing in VB.NET: Microsoft Visual Studio 2013, which is economic software and Visual Studio Express Edition 2013, which is free of charge.
  • The compiler “VBC.EXE” is installed as piece of the free software .NET Framework SDK. Mono also consists of a command-line VB.NET compiler.

Integration Benefits

  • Since the VB.NET runs on the .NET framework, a software platform that supports several programming languages, it is easy to see how applications written in this language can easily contact with those written in.
  • NET supported languages like C#, JavaScript and ASP.
  • In addition, VB.NET applications can be run on Microsoft Office programs, Microsoft SharePoint Server and other Microsoft products widely deployed on the Internet.
  • These integration benefits are largely driving the continued existence of VB.NET online.

Easy and Quick Application Deployment

  • VB.NET applications are considered very easy to deploy and also maintain.
  • All one needs is to copy the VB.NET application with all its elements to a directory located on the target computer.
  • The .NET framework will automatically locate the needed elements for that exact application in order to execute.

Short Learning Curve

  • Different programming languages, even versions of the same language, have disparities in the way developers perform a task.
  • This is primarily due to the fundamental system and how the language versions interact with it. VB.NET however is very much alike to other programming languages that run on the .NET framework, except for slight syntactical differences.
  • This unified way of performing a task results in a consistent object model that makes the learning of VB.NET easy, especially for developers who have used Visual Basic, JavaScript or ASP and other .NET framework-supported languages.

Simple Development and Debugging

  • By separating the application and presentation logic of code, VB.NET allows developers to easily create and debug code thereby simplifying the development process.
  • In addition, VB.NET takes advantage of the runtime diagnostics tools provided by the .NET framework such as the debugging tools that rack and resolve bugs during runtime.
  • Some of these runtime diagnostics that VB.NET provides to developers include Tracing, Event Logging and Performance Counters.

Enhanced Security

  • VB.NET uses a security model called Code Access. This controls what VB.NET code can access.
  • For example, approach to the database can be denied allowing the application to be deployed on trustworthy domains.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
