Event-Driven

Programming in
C#
Welcome to Event-Driven Programming
02

What is Event-Driven
Programming?
Event-Driven Programming (EDP) is a
paradigm where the flow of the
program is determined by events such
as user interactions, messages from
other programs, or sensor inputs.
02

Key Concepts of EDP


•Events: Actions or occurrences that the program
reacts
•Event Handlers: Functions or methods that are
invoked in response to an event.
•Event Loop: Continuously checks for events and
dispatches them to the appropriate event
handlers.
•Asynchronous Processing: Allows handling
multiple events concurrently, improving
performance.
02

Why is EDP Important in Modern


Software Development?
•Responsiveness: Allows programs to respond immediately to user
interactions or external conditions.
•Scalability: Facilitates the development of scalable applications by
enabling components to operate independently and react to events.
•Flexibility: Makes systems more flexible and easier to maintain by
decoupling event generation and handling.
•Real-World Applications: Widely used in GUI applications, web
applications, and real-time systems.

Applications of Event-Driven
Programming

•Web Browsers
•Mobile Apps
•Video Games
•IoT Devices

Introduction to C#
•C# (pronounced "C-sharp") is a modern, object-oriented
programming language developed by Microsoft.
•Designed for building a wide range of applications that
run on the .NET framework.
•First released in 2000, C# has evolved into one of the
most popular languages for developers.
02

History and Evolution of C#

•2000: Introduction of C# as part of Microsoft’s .NET


initiative.
•2002: C# 1.0 released with the first version of .NET
Framework.
•2005: C# 2.0 introduced with features like generics,
partial classes, and anonymous methods.
•2007: C# 3.0 brought LINQ (Language Integrated Query)
and lambda expressions.
02

History and Evolution of C#


•2010: C# 4.0 added dynamic binding and
named/optional arguments.
•2012: C# 5.0 introduced asynchronous programming
with async and await.
•2017: C# 7.0 focused on performance improvements
with tuples and pattern matching.
•2019-Present: Continued evolution with C# 8.0 and
beyond, enhancing nullable reference types, async
streams, and more
02
Why Choose C# for Event-Driven
Programming?
•Built-in Support: C# is inherently designed to support
event-driven programming, especially within the .NET
framework.
•Delegates and Events: C# provides robust mechanisms
like delegates and events to handle events efficiently.
•Versatility: C# is versatile, suitable for desktop
applications, web applications, games, and mobile apps.
•Integration: Seamless integration with Windows-based
applications, making it ideal for enterprise software.

Strengths of C#
•Object-Oriented: Supports concepts like encapsulation,
inheritance, and polymorphism.

•Type-Safe: C# checks types at compile-time, reducing runtime


errors.

•Rich Library: Extensive .NET library provides a wide range of


functionalities.

•Cross-Platform: With .NET Core, C# can run on Windows, Linux,


and macOS.

•Community & Support: Strong community and official support


from Microsoft ensure continued growth and stability.

Basic Event Handling


Concepts in C#
02

Introduction to Event Handling in C#


•Event handling is a key feature of C# used in
developing interactive applications.

•Events allow a class or object to notify other classes


or objects when something of interest occurs.

•Delegates play a crucial role in event handling by


providing a reference to methods.
02

What is an Event in C#
•An event is a notification sent by an object to signal the
occurrence of an action.
02

How Are Events Related to Delegates?


•Delegates as Event Handlers: In C#, events are based on
delegates, which are type-safe pointers to methods.

•Binding Methods to Events: A delegate can be assigned to a


method, and when the event is raised, the delegate calls the
method.
