MICROSOFT VISUAL STUDIO

   -An Integrated Development Environment
IDE
  An integrated development environment
 (IDE) is a software application that provides
     comprehensive facilities to computer
  programmers for software development. An
IDE normally consists of a source code editor,
    build automation tools and a debugger.
Microsoft Visual Studio
     Microsoft Visual Studio is an integrated
development environment(IDE) from Microsoft. It
  is used to develop console and graphical user
interface applications along with Windows Forms
or WPF applications, web sites, web applications,
and web services in both native code together with
   managed code for all platforms supported by
 Microsoft Windows, Windows Mobile, Windows
CE, .NET Framework, .NET Compact Framework
            and Microsoft Silverlight.

Language In Visual Studio
Visual Studio supports different types of
   programming language:-
• Visual C
• Visual C++
• Visual C#
• Visual F#
• Visual Basic.NET
Features
1. Code editor:-
   Like any other IDE, it includes a code editor
   that supports syntax highlighting and code
   completion using IntelliSense for not only
   variables, functions and methods but also
   language constructs like loops and queries.
2. Debugger :-
Visual Studio includes a debugger that can be
used for debugging applications written in any
language supported by Visual Studio. The
debugger can be configured to be launched when
an application running outside the Visual Studio
environment crashes.
3. Designer :-
Visual Studio includes a host of visual designers to
    aid in the development of applications. These
    tools include:
a) Windows Forms Designer:
The Windows Forms designer is used to build GUI
    applications using Windows Forms.
b) WPF Designer:
The WPF designer, codenamed Cider,was
    introduced with Visual Studio 2008. Like the
    Windows Forms designer it supports the drag
    and drop metaphor.
c) Web designer/development :
Visual Studio also includes a web-site editor and
designer that allows web pages to be authored by
dragging and dropping widgets. It is used for
developing ASP.NET applications and supports
HTML, CSS and JavaScript.
d) Class designer :
The Class Designer is used to author and edit the
classes (including its members and their access)
using UML modeling. The Class Designer can
generate C# and VB.NET code outlines for the
classes and methods.
e) Data designer :
The data designer can be used to graphically edit
database schemas, including typed tables, primary
and foreign keys and constraints.
f) Mapping designer :
From Visual Studio 2008 onwards, the mapping
designer is used by LINQ & SQL to design the
mapping between database schemas and the classes
that encapsulate the data.
