The terms 'private' and 'shared' refer to how an assembly is deployed, not any intrinsic attributes of the assembly.

A private assembly is normally used by a single application, and is STORED in the application's directory, or a sub-directory BENEATH. A shared assembly is intended to be used by multiple APPLICATIONS, and is normally stored in the global assembly cache (GAC), which is a central repository for ASSEMBLIES. (A shared assembly can also be stored outside the GAC, in which case each application must be pointed to its location via a codebase entry in the application's CONFIGURATION file.) The main advantage of deploying assemblies to the GAC is that the GAC can support multiple versions of the same assembly side-by-side.

Assemblies deployed to the GAC must be strong-named. Outside the GAC, strong-naming is optional.

The CLI (COMMON Language Infrastructure) is the definiton of the fundamentals of the .NET framework - the Common Type System (CTS), metadata, the Virtual Execution Environment (VES) and its use of intermediate language (IL), and the SUPPORT of multiple programming languages via the Common Language Specification (CLS). The CLI is documented through ECMA - 

The CLR (Common Language Runtime) is Microsoft's primary implementation of the CLI. Microsoft also have a shared source implementation known as ROTOR, for educational purposes, as well as the .NET COMPACT Framework for mobile devices. Non-Microsoft CLI IMPLEMENTATIONS includeMono and DotGNU Portable.NET.

CTS
When different LANGUAGES are integrated and want to communicate, it is certain that the languages have their own data TYPES and different declaration styles. CTS define how these different variables are declared and used in run TIME. E.g. VB offers an INTEGER data type while C++ offers long data type. Using CTS, these data types are converted to System32 which itself a data type of CLS.

CLS
Any language(s) that intend to use the Common Language Infrastructure needs to communicate with other CLS-Compliant language. This communication is based on set of rules laid by CLS. These rules define a subset of CTS.

Common Language Runtime - It is the implementation of CLI. The core runtime engine in the Microsoft .NET Framework for executing applications. The common language runtime supplies managed code with services such as cross-language integration, code access security, object LIFETIME MANAGEMENT, resouce management, type safety, pre-emptive threading, metadata services (type reflection), and debugging and profiling support. The ASP.NET Framework and Internet Explorer are examples of hosting CLR.

The CLR is a multi-language execution environment. There are currently over 15 compilers being built by Microsoft and other companies that produce code that will execute in the CLR.

The CLR is DESCRIBED as the "execution engine" of .NET. It's this CLR that manages the execution of programs. It provides the environment within which the programs RUN. The software version of .NET is actually the CLR version.

When the .NET program is compiled, the output of the compiler is not an executable file but a file that contains a special type of code called the Microsoft Intermediate Language (MSIL, now called CIL, Common Intermediate Language). This MSIL defines a set of portable instructions that are independent of any specific CPU. It's the job of the CLR to translate this Intermediate code into a executable code when the program is executed making the program to run in any environment for which the CLR is implemented. And that's how the .NET Framework achieves Portability. This MSIL is turned into executable code using a JIT (Just In Time) complier. The process goes like this, when .NET programs are executed, the CLR activates the JIT complier. The JIT complier CONVERTS MSIL into native code on a demand basis as each part of the program is needed. Thus the program executes as a native code even though it is compiled into MSIL making the program to run as fast as it would if it is compiled to native code but achieves the portability benefits of MSIL.

From the source code, the compiler generates MICROSOFT Intermediate Language (MSIL) which is further used for the creation of an EXE or DLL. The CLR PROCESSES these at runtime. Thus, compiling is the process of generating this MSIL.

The way you do it in .Net is as follows:
Right-click and select Build / Ctrl-Shift-B / Build menu, Build command
F5 - compile and run the application.
Ctrl+F5 - compile and run the application without debugging.

Compilation can be done with Debug or RELEASE configuration. The DIFFERENCE between these two is that in the debug configuration, only an assembly is generated without optimization. However, in release complete optimization is PERFORMED without debug symbols.

Security is one of the most important elements of an application. The word "security" covers two concepts: Authentication is the verifi cation's process of a principal's IDENTITY; a principal is typically a user. A principal in order to be authenticated provides a credential that is the PASSWORD. Authorization, on the other HAND, is the process of granting authorities, which are USUALLY roles, to an authenticated user.

Object.FINALIZE method in .NET is typically used to clean and release unmanaged resources LIKE OS files, window etc. Even though GARBAGE collector in .NET has the ability to determine the life TIME of such objects, however, with no knowledge how to clean them. The Finalize method allows an object to clean up such unmanaged resources when the garbage collector wishes to reclaim the memory. However, Finalize method should be avoided until necessary as it affects the performance because reclaiming the memory used by objects with Finalize methods requires at least two garbage collections.

OPERATOR overloading is the most evident EXAMPLE of Polymorphism. In operator overloading, an operator is ‘overloaded’ or MADE to perform ADDITIONAL functions in addition to what it actually does. For e.g. we can overload the “+” operator to add two complex numbers or two imaginary numbers.

X= a + b //+ is overloaded to add two integers, float ETC
Few operators like :: cannot be overloaded.

Static classes are used when any change made to an OBJECT should not AFFECT the data and functions of the class. They can be used to create data and functions without the need of an INSTANCE.

Following are features of Static/Shared classes:-

• They can not be instantiated. By DEFAULT a object is created on the first method call to that object.
• Static/Shared classes can not be INHERITED.
• Static/Shared classes can have only static members.
• Static/Shared classes can have only static constructor.

Similarities:

• Both Class and Structures can have methods, variables and objects.
• Both can have constructor.
• Both are user defined types.

DIFFERENCES:

• STRUCTURE being value type, the variables cannot be assigned to NULL. On the other hand, CLASSES being REFERENCE type, a class variable can be assigned to NULL.
• Structure is allocated on a stack when instantiated, while Class is allocated on a heap.
• When a method is passed to a class, PASS by reference is used. Pass by value is used for struts.
• A class can have a destructor.

Differences:

ABSTRACT classes:

• An abstract class can implement methods.
• An abstract class can inherit from a class and one or more INTERFACES.
• An abstract class can contain fields.
• An abstract class can implement a property.
• An abstract class can contain CONSTRUCTORS or destructors.
• An abstract class cannot be inherited from by structures.
• An abstract class cannot support multiple INHERITANCE.

• An Interface can support multiple inheritance.

Abstract classes:

interfaces:

An Abstract class is only used for inheritance. This means it acts as a BASE class for its derived classes. One cannot use it to CREATE OBJECTS. When a class is declared as “Abstract”, it can only be INHERITED and not instantiated. MustInherit Keyword can be used to DECLARE a class as abstract. Abstract classes can also specify abstract members.

An object oriented system revolves around a Class and objects. A class is used to describe characteristics of any entity of the real world. An object is a pattern of the class. An actual object created at runtime is called as an instance. A class, apart from characteristics has some functions to perform called as methods. For.e.g A class named “Food” has attributes like ‘price’, ‘quantity’. “Food” class has methods like Serve_food(), bill_food().

Objects in Object Oriented Systems interact through messages.

• Inheritance:- The main class or the root class is called as a Base Class. Any class which is expected to have ALL PROPERTIES of the base class along with its own is called as a DERIVED class. The process of deriving such a class is Derived class. For the “Food” class, a Derived class can be “Class Chinesefood”.
• Abstraction:- Abstraction is creating models or classes of some broad concept. Abstraction can be achieved through Inheritance or even Composition.
• Encapsulation:- Encapsulation is a collection of functions of a class and object. The “Food” class is an encapsulated form. It is achieved by specifying which class can use which members (PRIVATE, public, protected) of an object.
• Polymorphism:- Polymorphism means existing in different FORMS. Inheritance is an EXAMPLE of Polymorphism. A base class exists in different forms as derived classes. Operator overloading is an example of Polymorphism in which an operator can be applied in different situations.

In Visual STUDIO you can create a new project using "Asp.NET Web Service" template or just create asmx-file using any text editor. After webservice is implemented, you NEED EITHER add a webreference to it in Visual Studio, or to create a PROXY for the client manually using wsdl.exe utility and build a client program using created proxy class, so that using it client can consume the webservice.

.ASMX is EXTENSION for WEBSERVICES.

.ASMX is extension for Webservices.

Following are the different steps needed to get a PROXY object of a WEBSERVICE at the client side:
-Client communicates to UDDI node for webservice either through browser or UDDI’s public web service.
-UDDI node responds with a list of webservices.
-EVERY service listed by webservice has a URI pointing to DISCO or WSDL document.
-After parsing the DISCO document, we follow the URI for the WSDL document related to the webservice which we need.
-Client then parses the WSDL document and builds a proxy object which can communicate with Webservice.

Web Service DESCRIPTION Language (WSDL)is a W3C specification which defines XML GRAMMAR for describing Web Services.XML grammar DESCRIBES details such as where we can find the Web Service (its URI), what are the methods and properties that service SUPPORTS, data type support and supported PROTOCOLS.

Clients can consume this WSDL and build proxy objects that clients use to communicate with the Web Services.
