    Study Notes

    Windows Forms Basics

    • The top-level window for an application in Windows Forms is called a Form.
    • The file that contains the auto-generated code for the form is Form1.Designer.cs.

    Class Inheritance

    • The Form1 class inherits from the System.Windows.Forms.Form class.

    IDE Organization

    • The IDE (Integrated Development Environment) separates the source code into three separate files in Windows Forms applications: Form1.cs, Form1.Designer.cs, and Form1.resx.

    Properties Window

    • The Properties window allows developers to change a property at design time.
    • The Properties window allows developers to view and modify properties of controls and the form.

    Design Considerations

    • HCI stands for Human-Computer Interaction, which is a design consideration in Windows Forms applications.

    Class Definition

    • A colon followed by another class name in the class heading definition represents inheritance.

    GUI and Events

    • GUI stands for Graphical User Interface, which is a characteristic of Windows applications.
    • The function of an event in the context of Windows applications is to trigger a response to a user interaction, such as a button click.
    • The form's Load event allows developers to perform initialization and setup tasks when the form is loaded.

    Windows Applications vs Console Applications

    • Windows applications differ from console applications in that they have a graphical user interface and use events to respond to user interactions.
    • Windows applications differ from console applications in terms of program execution, as they have a more interactive and dynamic user interface.

    Form and Controls

    • A Windows Forms application includes control objects such as buttons, labels, and text boxes.
    • The visual image seen when running a program is referred to as the form.

    Event Handling

    • The output produced when the Close button causes the event-handler method to fire is the termination of the application.
    • The function of an event in Windows Forms is to trigger a response to a user interaction, such as a button click.
