EssentialCSharp

This project contains the source code for the book Essential C# by Mark Michaelis (Addison-Wesley).

Sample Code Guide

Ensure one of the following frameworks is installed at the latest version.

.NET Framework (Windows)
.NET Core (All)

Visual Studio 2017 contains the .NET Framework runtime as well as gives options to install .NET Core. Not to mention, it's a great IDE that makes it easy to get started.

Download the Code

Local Copy

Open a console and change the working directory to the desired project location.

$ git clone https://github.com/IntelliTect/EssentialCSharp.git
$ cd ./EssentialCSharp/

The source code is the most recently published edition of the book and this is the default branch following the clone command. However, you can switch to a different branch, v6.0 for example, with the command:

$ git checkout v6.0

Build

EssentialCSharp.sln is the project's main solution, open this with Visual Studio and Build All.

For those using the command line, build all the projects from the /EssentialCSharp/ directory with these commands:

$ dotnet restore EssentialCSharp.sln
$ dotnet build EssentialCSharp.sln

Run

Navigate to an individual project in the /EssentialCSharp/src/(project)/ directory and run the code. The example below is for Chapter01 with the user entering 1.1 to execute the listing number.

To run a listing you must run the the project that contains it. For example, to run Listing 1.1 you must navigate to Chapter01 in the Solution Explorer and set Chapter01 as the startup project. In Rider this can be done by locating the desired project in the Explorer tab, right clicking on the project and clicking run.

$ cd ./src/Chapter01/
$ dotnet run
Enter the listing number to execute (e.g. For Listing 1.1 enter "1.1"): 1.1

/EssentialCSharp/RunTests.sh (Linux/Mac)

If running on Linux you may need to give the script execution permission. From the /EssentialCSharp/ directory:

$ chmod +x ./RunTests.sh
$ ./RunTests.sh
