.NET Forum / .NET Framework / Distributed Applications / November 2003i want to kown The History of Microsoft dotNet
hi, somebody nice to meet you. I'm a professor from China,and a half-time author. Now a magazine named THE PROGRAM'S AGE ask me to write an article "The History of Microsoft DotNet" for them.I paid a lot of time searching on the internet,but nothing seems valuable. can you give some information?Thanks a lot.Looking forward to your reply. Best regards,Rolland Han If .NET is web services, XML and SOAP, then you need to look at the history of those three topics to get the history of .NET. Remember, .NET isn't a MS invention but rather a MS strategy for implementing the practices used by the Java, XML, and web services world. Additionally, you need to understand that advantages of the Java VM bitcode model to understand why MS has gone with the same model with .NET by employing a managed code model that also includes bitcode known at MS as the CLR (Common Language Runtime). To me .NET is MS implementation of the best of everything that state of computing has to offer. Microsoft is taking the best ideas in computing and building it into their products. I also think you have to understand that .NET is the next generation of distributed computing after COM and DCOM. Therefore, you need to understand DCOM's limitations, and why a new model (ie. web services) was needed. and Microsoft's move to .NET is a move to a distributed model that can scale across the global Internet. Todd thanks my friend,thanks my friend, sorry that I am afraid I misleaded you. What I need is some BIG EVENT about .NET, for example: 1.2000.6.22 microsoft announced strategic plan of dotnet 2. ...... do you understand me?

You need to verify some facts for yourself: * Another company I don't remember the name of (Colusa?) builds a virtual machine (OmniVM?) similar to the Java VM. They use write C++ and Visual Basic compilers for this VM. Around '96 MS buys this company. * In 1997 Mary Kirtland tells about a major rehaul of COM, called COM+ Runtime, with features similar to what we find in in .NET Runtime today. They later goes back on this. * Rumours appear about a new language from Microsoft, COOL. Those using have signed a NonDisclosureAgreement, so I cannot reveal my source. But people were using ut. * W2K ships with COM+, but none of the runtime-stuff promised earlier. * Late in 2000 .NET is announced Some links (watch for line-breaks): * http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?HistoryOfCsharp * http://discuss.develop.com/archives/wa.exe?A2=ind0007&L=DOTNET&P=R69142 &I=-3 * http://www.ondotnet.com/pub/a/dotnet/excerpt/csharpnut_1/index2.html * http://www.csc.uvic.ca/~goconne/docs/lang.pdf (unsure of the relevance of this) * http://linuxtoday.com/security/1999090802004PS  SignatureRune Huseby Free MagazinesGet these publications absolutely FREE for up to 12 months.
