| Developing A C# Vector Drawing Application - Part 2 |
| C#Today |
| This is the second part of a series where we build a vector based drawing application. In Part 1, Budi Kurniawan outlined the specification for the application and discussed some techniques for working with forms with the .NET Framework Base Class Library. In this part, we will continue with our development, first by discussing the various shapes for our drawing application and then writing event handling for some of the controls. |

| Developing Collection Classes In .NET |
| C# Help |
| Collection resembles to grouping together the set of objects with the same characteristics, in programming paradigm it resembles to the set of object instances of the same class.
In .NET, class libraries provides the collection interfaces that are used to develop one's own collection classes. The basic functionality for the collections is made available by inheriting the abstract (MustInherit in VB) Class CollectionBase from the System.Collection namespace. The CollectionBase class provides the implementations for the Clear method and the Count property, and it maintains a Protected property called List, which it uses for the internal storage and organization of the object instances. Other methods such as Add and Remove as well as the Item property requires implementation to be provided. |

| Doing Collections with Inheritance |
| MSDN |
| I've heard Microsoft® Visual Basic® 6.0 developers say things like "Well, I don't really need inheritance in my object designs." They wonder why getting inheritance in Microsoft® Visual Basic® .NET is such a big deal. I think many of these developers have really needed inheritance all along—they just didn't realize it. To see why, let's look at how collections are managed in Visual Basic 6.0, and then how things change in Visual Basic. NET. I should first point out that if you don't use collections in your object designs, then you are not really using object orientation in depth. It's probably appropriate for you to invest some more time in object-oriented philosophy, because that understanding is central to using .NET most effectively. |

| MultiException: Type-Safe Collections without CollectionBase |
| The Code Project |
| I had been working on a base class for reading and writing to a database. I knew that when a new object (and hence record) was created there needed to be a mechanism for setting default values. I also knew that even with the default values there might not be enough information that the object could be saved. |

| Use Inheritance to Create a Custom TreeView |
| devCity.NET |
| This article demonstrates how to build a treeview where the nodes are based on different objects. A simple example is a folder and file hierarchy where each object needs different properties. A more complex example is an object model with a class at one level and with methods, properties, events, etc., at a level below that. In this example, Category is at the top level and AccountType and PartType are the second-tier nodes. Each class will contain a property that is not part of the other classes. In the real world each of these classes might be very different from each other. |
