 Topic: ASP.NET
Posted: 08 November 2003 at 9:18am |
I have been looking at starting to learn ASP.NET and I am a bit confused about something. 
Is ASP.NET a standalone product in its own right, like VB.Net, C# etc.
Or is it incorporated into VB.NET, the reason I ask, is that I have
recently got a cd from Microsoft of a trail version of Visual
Studio.NET and on there I see VB, C#, C++ and J# but not ASP.NET.
If I just install VB.NET will I be able to get Asp.net as well ?

ASP.NET is not a programming language as such - similar to ASP.
You need to use a language such as VB.Net, C# etc, same as you need VBScipt / JScript for ASP.
The CD is just listing the languages that VS.Net supports.
Cheers,
Andrew

you can use asp.net if you have IIS and the .net framework installed, VB.net isnt needed.

But it is one heck of a great tool to develop ASP.NET web applications! Web Applications build in VB.NET are faster then 'just' normal pages, since it compiles them, and 'tunes' you web application for the right performance.
Of course you can do this yourself, but often you forget something, wich VB.NET doesn't.

Excellent thanks all. I will go and buy a copy of VB.Net then and use that as the tool of choice.
Thanks to all for you help
