Course Outline
Foundations of Object-Oriented Programming and Core .NET Frameworks
- Principles of Object-Oriented Programming
- Core tenets: Encapsulation, Inheritance, Polymorphism, and Abstraction
- Implementation of classes, objects, access modifiers, constructors, and destructors
- Differentiation between interfaces, abstract classes, and composition versus inheritance
- Lab 1: Develop a console-based application to demonstrate OOP design patterns, inheritance structures, and interface implementation relevant for government software development
- Data Types and Collections Management
- Distinction between value types and reference types, including structs, enums, and boxing/unboxing mechanics
- Utilization of arrays,
List<T>,Dictionary<TKey, TValue>,HashSet<T>, and foundational LINQ operations - Application of generic constraints, type inference, and performance optimization for collections
- Lab 2: Construct generic collection utilities, execute LINQ queries, and benchmark collection performance metrics
Code Architecture, Compilation Processes, and I/O Operations
- Event Handling and Exception Management
- Utilization of delegates, event publisher/subscriber models, and multicast delegates
- Robust exception handling strategies using
try,catch,finally,throw, and custom exception classes - Implementation of global error handling, logging frameworks, and fault tolerance patterns
- Lab 3: Engineer event-driven architectures, establish resilient exception handling workflows, and integrate structured logging for government applications
- Compilation Pipelines and Deployment Models
- Understanding the .NET compilation lifecycle: source code to Intermediate Language (IL), Just-In-Time (JIT) compilation, and native code generation
- Management of MSBuild,
dotnetCLI tools, NuGet package management, and dependency resolution - Deployment architectures: Framework-Dependent, Self-Contained, and Framework-Checked
- Lab 4: Compile projects via CLI, manage NuGet dependencies, and publish framework-agnostic deployments suitable for government infrastructure
- Input/Output (I/O) Classifications
- File and directory operations using
File,Directory, andPathclasses - Text-based I/O via
StreamReader,StreamWriter,StringReader, andStringWriter - Binary I/O and serialization standards, addressing
BinaryFormatterdeprecation in favor ofSystem.Text.JsonandXmlSerializer - Network and stream-based I/O, including asynchronous I/O patterns (
async/await) - Lab 5: Develop asynchronous file and stream processors, implement JSON/XML serialization, and evaluate I/O performance for government systems
- File and directory operations using
Security Protocols, Memory Management, and Certification Preparation
- Security Fundamentals
- Differentiation between authentication and authorization, claims-based identity, and token-based security mechanisms
- Cryptography basics: symmetric and asymmetric algorithms, hashing, certificates, and secure key storage practices
- Secure coding standards: input validation, output encoding, dependency scanning, and mitigation of OWASP top risks in .NET
- .NET security policies: Code Access Security (CAS) deprecation, managed code access controls, and runtime security configurations
- Lab 6: Implement secure data validation, integrate cryptographic operations, and refactor insecure code patterns to meet government security standards
- Memory Management and .NET Language Interoperability
- Garbage Collection (GC) generations, GC modes, and usage of
GC.KeepAlive - Implementation of
IDisposable,usingstatements, and deterministic resource cleanup - Utilization of weak references and finalizers to prevent memory leaks
- Interoperability across .NET languages: C#, F#, VB.NET, and P/Invoke/COM interop
- Lab 7: Profile memory allocations, implement proper disposal patterns, and demonstrate cross-language function calls for government software maintenance
- Garbage Collection (GC) generations, GC modes, and usage of
- MTA 98-372 Exam Preparation and Capstone Project
- Overview of exam structure, domain weighting, and question formats
- Guided practice questions, identification of common pitfalls, and topic prioritization strategies
- Capstone: Develop a secure, memory-efficient .NET application incorporating compilation, I/O, and event handling capabilities
- Open Q&A sessions, distribution of study resources, and certification registration guidance for government personnel
