Module 2: Working with Cultures by Using System.Globalization This module describes how to use the System.Globalization namespace to work with culture information and perform culture-sensitive string comparisons. It also describes how to create a custom culture. Lessons •Working with Culture Information •Formatting and Sorting Culture-Sensitive Data •Creating a Custom Culture Lab : Working with Cultures by Using System.Globalization •Managing Culture Information •Creating a Custom Culture After completing this module, students will be able to: •Explain the purpose of the System.Globalization namespace and describe how to access culture information by using the CultureInfo class. •Format values by using the supporting classes in the System.Globalization namespace and explain how to perform culture-sensitive string comparisons. •Create a custom culture by using the CultureAndRegionInfoBuilder class.
Module 3: Processing Text by Using Regular Expressions and Encodings This module describes the key features of the System.Text namespace that the .NET Framework provides. It explains how to store and manipulate strings, how and when to implement regular expressions, and how to customize encodings to produce the correct results when you process text Lessons •Handling Text and Large Strings •Using Regular Expressions •Encoding Text Lab : Processing Text by Using Regular Expressions and Encodings •Handling Text and Strings •Creating and Using Regular Expressions •Working with Encoding After completing this module, students will be able to: •Explain the purpose of and use the StringBuilder class. •Describe the purpose of and create regular expressions by using the classes in the System.Text.RegularExpressions namespace. •Describe text encoding and how to encode and decode text by using the encoding classes.
Module 4: Encrypting and Hashing Data by Using Cryptography This module describes when to use data encryption and hashing and explains how to use the classes in the .NET Framework 2.0 to perform these cryptographic tasks. It also discusses how to customize the implementation of specific algorithms by extending base classes in the System.Security.Cryptography namespace. Lessons •Working with Encryption and Hashing •Encrypting and Decrypting Data •Hashing Data •Extending Cryptography Lab : Creating a Cryptographic Application •Creating an Asymmetric Key •Encrypting a File •Decrypting a File •Exporting and Importing a Public Key •Getting a Private Key After completing this module, students will be able to: •Explain the purpose of encryption and hashing algorithms. •Describe the algorithms available for hashing and encryption. •Describe the difference between symmetrical and asymmetrical algorithms. •Encrypt and decrypt data by using the classes in the System.Security.Cryptography namespace. •Create custom classes that extend the .NET Framework cryptography model.
Module 5: Securing Code Execution and Resources This module describes how code access security (CAS) works, how to make CAS permission checks in code, and how to configure CAS security policy. It also introduces Windows operating system access checks and explains how to use the .NET Framework base class library to read and modify Windows access control lists (ACLs). This module also describes how .NET Framework security performs authorization checks and how to customize the mechanism. Lessons •Using Code Access Security •Securing Code Execution by Using Policy •Securing Resources by Using Access Control •Customizing Authentication and Authorization Lab : Custom Authentication by Using Principal Objects •Viewing the Starter Solution •Adding Role-Based Security •Testing the Application After completing this module, students will be able to: •Describe and implement CAS by using the System.Security and System.Security.Permissions namespaces. •Explain how to control code privileges by using the System.Security.Policy namespace, and describe how to use the utilities provided with the .NET Framework to manage computer, user, and enterprise-level policy. •Describe and use access control by using the classes in the System.Security.AccessControl namespace. •Explain how to authenticate and authorize users by using the System.Security.Principal namespace.
Module 6: Application Interoperability This module describes how to invoke functions that are implemented in unmanaged DLLs, and how to use various techniques for integrating Component Object Model (COM) components into managed applications. It also explains how to make managed components that are built by using the .NET Framework available to unmanaged COM client applications Lessons •Using the Platform Invoke Service •Integrating COM Components into a .NET Framework Application •Integrating Managed Components into an Unmanaged Application Lab : Application Interoperability •Integrating Unmanaged Functions into a Managed Application •Integrating a COM Component into a Managed Application by Creating an Interop Assembly •Integrating a COM Component into a Managed Application by Using Late Binding •Manually Creating an Interop Assembly for a COM Component After completing this module, students will be able to: •Use the Platform Invoke service to incorporate unmanaged functions into a .NET Framework application. •Integrate unmanaged COM components into a .NET Framework application. •Incorporate components that are built by using the.NET Framework into unmanaged applications.
Module 7: Reflection, Metadata, and Emitting Objects This module describes how to use the classes in the .NET Framework 2.0 class library to examine a program, alter the behavior or structure of the program as it runs, and create and run new code.
