3. Compiled Languages Compiler (Including Linker) hello.cpp (high level) hello.exe (machine) Result Executor hello.exe

4. Interpreted Languages Interpreter hello.bas Result

5. Hybrid Compiler-Interpreter Interpreter Source code Result Compiler Intermediate language code

6. C++/CLI CLR C++/CLI Source Code Result C++/CLI compiler CIL Bytecode This applies to C# and VB.NET too. CLR = Common Language Runtime CIL = C++ Intermediate Language

7. About C++\CLI C++ (.h,.cpp, complied) C++/CLI (compiled to MSIL, not machine code)(not interpreted at runtime) C++ vs. C++/CLI –Unmanaged code vs. managed code Managed code: memory management, code access security, multi-language integration –Garbage collection

8. .NET –Application development technologies –.NET base class library –Common Language Runtime (above OS)

9. .NET Advantages Language natural –Many non-MS languages can use base class library –Common Type System (CTS) –Common Language Specification (CLS) Minimum subset of CTS for all the.NET compatible languages Platform independent –Port.NET Framework to non-Windows platform w/o recompiling –JIT: Just-In-Time Compilation –A JIT compiler translates bytecode into the native machine language.

10. IDE(Integrated development environment) Microsoft Visual Studio for C++

11. Examples How to use Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Use Visual Studio to create a simple project after class
