Source code for Professional C# and .NET 2021 Edition (with updates for C# 11 and .NET 7)

Professional C# and .NET - 2021 Edition

Code samples for the Wrox Press book Professional C# and .NET - 2021 Edition

To compile and run the samples, you need Visual Studio 2019, Visual Studio for Mac, or Visual Studio Code.

You can download these tools here: Visual Studio.

The console app samples can be used on Windows, Linux, or Mac. Here is the installation procedure for .NET: .NET

If you're using Visual Studio, Version 16.9 or a later version of Visual Studio 2019 is needed. With the Visual Studio Installer you need to select this workload to compile most of the code samples: .NET Core cross-platform development. For working with .NET 6, you should use Visual Studio 2022.

ASP.NET Core samples need this workload: ASP.NET and web development.

See the WinUI.md for the requirements of building and running the WinUI samples.

Updates, .NET 6 and .NET 7

• See updates for issues in the book and updates.
• See .NET 6 Updates for changes with .NET 6 and C# 10.
• See .NET 7 Updates for changes with .NET 7 and C# 11.

The main branch is the actual working branch with code samples updated to .NET 7 and C# 11. Every code sample should compile and run successfully (with the deadlock and race-conditions samples, successfully means that a deadlock and a race-condition occurs).

The dotnet5 branch is used to show the samples how they appear in the printed book.

The dotnet6 branch is used to give you the .NET 6 (LTS) version.

Issues and Discussions

If you find some problems with the source code, issues to compile and run the downloaded samples, please create an issue.

If you have some questions about the code samples, or just want to drop a message, you're welcome to use Discussions.

For questions with your source code that are not related to the book and the code samples, it's better to use StackOverflow.
