C# Interview Questions
March 16, 2004 1 Comment
This is a list of questions I have gathered from other sources and created myself over a period of time from my experience, many of which I felt where incomplete or simply wrong. I have finally taken the time to go through each question and correct them to the best of my ability. However, please feel free to post feedback to challenge, improve, or suggest new questions. I want to thank those of you that have contributed quality questions and corrections thus far.
There are some question in this list that I do not consider to be good questions for an interview. However, they do exist on other lists available on the Internet so I felt compelled to keep them easy access.
General Questions
- Does C# support multiple-inheritance?
No.
- Who is a protected class-level variable available to?
It is available to any sub-class (a class inheriting this class).
- Are private class-level variables inherited?
Yes, but they are not accessible. Although they are not visible or accessible via the class interface, they are inherited.
- Describe the accessibility modifier “protected internal”.
It is available to classes that are within the same assembly and derived from the specified base class.
- What’s the top .NET class that everything is derived from?
System.Object.
- What does the term immutable mean?
The data value may not be changed. Note: The variable value may be changed, but the original immutable data value was discarded and a new data value was created in memory.
- What’s the difference between System.String and System.Text.StringBuilder classes?
System.String is immutable. System.StringBuilder was designed with the purpose of having a mutable string where a variety of operations can be performed.
- What’s the advantage of using System.Text.StringBuilder over System.String?
StringBuilder is more efficient in cases where there is a large amount of string manipulation. Strings are immutable, so each time a string is changed, a new instance in memory is created.
- Can you store multiple data types in System.Array?
No.
- What’s the difference between the System.Array.CopyTo() and System.Array.Clone()?
The Clone() method returns a new array (a shallow copy) object containing all the elements in the original array. The CopyTo() method copies the elements into another existing array. Both perform a shallow copy. A shallow copy means the contents (each array element) contains references to the same object as the elements in the original array. A deep copy (which neither of these methods performs) would create a new instance of each element’s object, resulting in a different, yet identacle object.
- How can you sort the elements of the array in descending order?
By calling Sort() and then Reverse() methods.
- What’s the .NET collection class that allows an element to be accessed using a unique key?
HashTable.
- What class is underneath the SortedList class?
A sorted HashTable.
- Will the finally block get executed if an exception has not occurred?
Yes.
- What’s the C# syntax to catch any possible exception?
A catch block that catches the exception of type System.Exception. You can also omit the parameter data type in this case and just write catch {}.
- Can multiple catch blocks be executed for a single try statement?
No. Once the proper catch block processed, control is transferred to the finally block (if there are any).
- Explain the three services model commonly know as a three-tier application.
Presentation (UI), Business (logic and underlying code) and Data (from storage or other sources).
Class Questions
- What is the syntax to inherit from a class in C#?
Place a colon and then the name of the base class.
Example: class MyNewClass : MyBaseClass
- Can you prevent your class from being inherited by another class?
Yes. The keyword “sealed” will prevent the class from being inherited.
- Can you allow a class to be inherited, but prevent the method from being over-ridden?
Yes. Just leave the class public and make the method sealed.
- What’s an abstract class?
A class that cannot be instantiated. An abstract class is a class that must be inherited and have the methods overridden. An abstract class is essentially a blueprint for a class without any implementation.
- When do you absolutely have to declare a class as abstract?
1. When the class itself is inherited from an abstract class, but not all base abstract methods have been overridden.
2. When at least one of the methods in the class is abstract.
- What is an interface class?
Interfaces, like classes, define a set of properties, methods, and events. But unlike classes, interfaces do not provide implementation. They are implemented by classes, and defined as separate entities from classes.
- Why can’t you specify the accessibility modifier for methods inside the interface?
They all must be public, and are therefore public by default.
- Can you inherit multiple interfaces?
Yes. .NET does support multiple interfaces.
- What happens if you inherit multiple interfaces and they have conflicting method names?
It’s up to you to implement the method inside your own class, so implementation is left entirely up to you. This might cause a problem on a higher-level scale if similarly named methods from different interfaces expect different data, but as far as compiler cares you’re okay.
To Do: Investigate
- What’s the difference between an interface and abstract class?
In an interface class, all methods are abstract – there is no implementation. In an abstract class some methods can be concrete. In an interface class, no accessibility modifiers are allowed. An abstract class may have accessibility modifiers.
- What is the difference between a Struct and a Class?
Structs are value-type variables and are thus saved on the stack, additional overhead but faster retrieval. Another difference is that structs cannot inherit.
Method and Property Questions
- What’s the implicit name of the parameter that gets passed into the set method/property of a class?
Value. The data type of the value parameter is defined by whatever data type the property is declared as.
- What does the keyword “virtual” declare for a method or property?
The method or property can be overridden.
- How is method overriding different from method overloading?
When overriding a method, you change the behavior of the method for the derived class. Overloading a method simply involves having another method with the same name within the class.
- Can you declare an override method to be static if the original method is not static?
No. The signature of the virtual method must remain the same. (Note: Only the keyword virtual is changed to keyword override)
- What are the different ways a method can be overloaded?
Different parameter data types, different number of parameters, different order of parameters.
- If a base class has a number of overloaded constructors, and an inheriting class has a number of overloaded constructors; can you enforce a call from an inherited constructor to a specific base constructor?
Yes, just place a colon, and then keyword base (parameter list to invoke the appropriate constructor) in the overloaded constructor definition inside the inherited class.
Events and Delegates
- What’s a delegate?
A delegate object encapsulates a reference to a method.
- What’s a multicast delegate?
A delegate that has multiple handlers assigned to it. Each assigned handler (method) is called.
XML Documentation Questions
- Is XML case-sensitive?
Yes.
- What’s the difference between // comments, /* */ comments and /// comments?
Single-line comments, multi-line comments, and XML documentation comments.
- How do you generate documentation from the C# file commented properly with a command-line compiler?
Compile it with the /doc switch.
Debugging and Testing Questions
- What debugging tools come with the .NET SDK?
1. CorDBG – command-line debugger. To use CorDbg, you must compile the original C# file using the /debug switch.
2. DbgCLR – graphic debugger. Visual Studio .NET uses the DbgCLR.
- What does assert() method do?
In debug compilation, assert takes in a Boolean condition as a parameter, and shows the error dialog if the condition is false. The program proceeds without any interruption if the condition is true.
- What’s the difference between the Debug class and Trace class?
Documentation looks the same. Use Debug class for debug builds, use Trace class for both debug and release builds.
- Why are there five tracing levels in System.Diagnostics.TraceSwitcher?
The tracing dumps can be quite verbose. For applications that are constantly running you run the risk of overloading the machine and the hard drive. Five levels range from None to Verbose, allowing you to fine-tune the tracing activities.
- Where is the output of TextWriterTraceListener redirected?
To the Console or a text file depending on the parameter passed to the constructor.
- How do you debug an ASP.NET Web application?
Attach the aspnet_wp.exe process to the DbgClr debugger.
- What are three test cases you should go through in unit testing?
1. Positive test cases (correct data, correct output).
2. Negative test cases (broken or missing data, proper handling).
3. Exception test cases (exceptions are thrown and caught properly).
- Can you change the value of a variable while debugging a C# application?
Yes. If you are debugging via Visual Studio.NET, just go to Immediate window.
ADO.NET and Database Questions
- What is the role of the DataReader class in ADO.NET connections?
It returns a read-only, forward-only rowset from the data source. A DataReader provides fast access when a forward-only sequential read is needed.
- What are advantages and disadvantages of Microsoft-provided data provider classes in ADO.NET?
SQLServer.NET data provider is high-speed and robust, but requires SQL Server license purchased from Microsoft. OLE-DB.NET is universal for accessing other sources, like Oracle, DB2, Microsoft Access and Informix. OLE-DB.NET is a .NET layer on top of the OLE layer, so it’s not as fastest and efficient as SqlServer.NET.
- What is the wildcard character in SQL?
Let’s say you want to query database with LIKE for all employees whose name starts with La. The wildcard character is %, the proper query with LIKE would involve ‘La%’.
- Explain ACID rule of thumb for transactions.
A transaction must be:
1. Atomic – it is one unit of work and does not dependent on previous and following transactions.
2. Consistent – data is either committed or roll back, no “in-between” case where something has been updated and something hasn’t.
3. Isolated – no transaction sees the intermediate results of the current transaction).
4. Durable – the values persist if the data had been committed even if the system crashes right after.
- What connections does Microsoft SQL Server support?
Windows Authentication (via Active Directory) and SQL Server authentication (via Microsoft SQL Server username and password).
- Between Windows Authentication and SQL Server Authentication, which one is trusted and which one is untrusted?
Windows Authentication is trusted because the username and password are checked with the Active Directory, the SQL Server authentication is untrusted, since SQL Server is the only verifier participating in the transaction.
- What does the Initial Catalog parameter define in the connection string?
The database name to connect to.
- What does the Dispose method do with the connection object?
Deletes it from the memory.
To Do: answer better. The current answer is not entirely correct.
- What is a pre-requisite for connection pooling?
Multiple processes must agree that they will share the same connection, where every parameter is the same, including the security settings. The connection string must be identical.
Assembly Questions
Assembly versioning allows the application to specify not only the library it needs to run (which was available under Win32), but also the version of the assembly.
An MSI installer, a CAB archive, and XCOPY command.
When you write a multilingual or multi-cultural application in .NET, and want to distribute the core application separately from the localized modules, the localized assemblies that modify the core application are called satellite assemblies.
System.Globalization and System.Resources.
an Assembly.
As a good rule, you should not call the garbage collector. However, you could call the garbage collector when you are done using a large object (or set of objects) to force the garbage collector to dispose of those very large objects from memory. However, this is usually not a good practice.
Use Boxing.
Boxing converts a value-type to a reference-type, thus storing the object on the heap. Unboxing converts a reference-type to a value-type, thus storing the value on the stack.

Exceptions are there for a reason. It is so that you can centralize your error handling code instead of having to tediously monitor return codes and/or sprinkle error handling code all over the place. A central location for managing errors is much easier to maintain and test than having error code all over the place.
# re: Interview Questions: C# 6/26/2004 6:41 PM Mark Wagner
A quick FYI, I did not write these questions myself. I found them to be useful and wanted to keep a copy for myself since I do hold technical interview from time to time. I have a link to what I believe the source is.
As for question number 34, I do not agree completely with the answer. Moreover, I don’t think the answer is very complete or clear.
I am currently putting together an Exception Handling Best Practices document. This short post will not provide enough to properly cover exception handling. I hope to post it soon, and when I do it will be in my Developer Guidelines section just in case you want to subscribe to that article category.
There are two primary exception throwing scenarios:
- Throwing a new exception (creating and throwing it)
- Re-Throwing an exception (an exception that has been caught within a try/catch block)
THOWING (a new exception):
However, when it comes to “throwing” exceptions I have one rule that is the most important of all.
Rule: Throw an exception only when the current request/process simply can not progress due to incorrect, insufficient data, or otherwise. If this code is in the UI an exception should rarely be thrown since a user can usually be notified of the error – such as an incorrect password. However, for middle tier or non-UI code, throwing an exception is most likely the correct response.
RE-THROWING (an existing exception):
The primary rule I have when “Re-Throwing” an exception is:
Rule: Re-Throw an exception ONLY when you are adding value to the exception process such as adding data to the exception for debugging purposes. Otherwise, the try/catch should not even be used since the exception will naturally propagate up the call stack.
# re: Interview Questions: C# 7/31/2004 2:51 PM Eyal
Another good question
What is the difference between a Struct and a Class?
Structs are value-type variables and are thus saved on the stack -> additional overhead but faster retrieval.
Another difference is that structs CANNOT inherit.

What does the term immutable mean?
I believe it means to create a view of data that is not modifiable and is temporary of data that is modifiable.

# re: Interview Questions: C# 9/12/2004 4:23 PM Vikas
Immutable means you can’t change the currrent data, but if you perform some operation on that data, a new copy is created. The operation doesn’t change the data itself. Like let’s say you have a string object having “hello” value. Now if you say temp = temp + “new value” a new object is created, and values is saved in that. the temp object is immutable, and can’t be changed.
Did it help???

The Question are Use ful but ,Question no 2
2. When you inherit a protected class-level variable, who is it available to?
Ans-Classes in the same namespace.
The above answer that is displayed in the page is wrong one protected members can be acceable by all the derived class irrespective of the Namespaces only protectedFriend or protectedinternal will be accessed inside the namespace…

# re: Interview Questions: C#: Array.Copy vs Array.Clone 4/18/2005 9:54 AM vtsr
Array.CopyTo does not make a deep copy. This can be easily verified by running the following code.
public class MyClass
{
public static void Main()
{
Container[] containerArray = new Container[10];
for( int i=0; i < containerArray.Length; i++ ){
containerArray[i] = new Container( i );
}
Container[] containerArrayCopy = new Container[10];
containerArray.CopyTo( containerArrayCopy, 0 );
containerArrayCopy[2].V = 3;

Fist of all, Is ASP.NET a language? I believe it is a framework or set of technologies that simplifies (relativity inferred here) the job of creating .NET based web applications.
# re: Interview Questions: C# 10/21/2005 8:37 AM Mark Wagner
Hi Manish Ahuja,
You are correct is stating that ASP.NET is a technology that provides a framework for developing .NET based web applications.
Mark
# re: Interview Questions: C# 10/21/2005 8:45 AM Mark Wagner
VENKATESHMOORTHY,
ASP.NET is not a platform independen language. As was noted by Manish, ASP.NET is more of a technology that provides a framework for building web applications. ASP.NET provides the reources needed to dynamically deliver html content (pages) to the end user. ASP.NET can leverage languages such as C#, VB.NET, and javascript to help provide a reliable, high perfofmance, and secure web application.

What is serialization, how it works in .NET?
The primary purpose of XML serialization in the .NET Framework is to enable the conversion of XML documents and streams to common language runtime objects and vice versa. Serialization of XML to common language runtime objects enables one to convert XML documents into a form where they are easier to process using conventional programming languages. On the other hand, serialization of objects to XML facilitates persisting or transporting the state of such objects in an open, standards compliant and platform agnostic manner.

# re: Interview Questions: C# 1/20/2006 1:25 AM shivaraj
Hi,
scope in C#
Simply, the scope of a type (a variable, a method, or a class) is where you can use that type in your program. In other words, the scope defines the area of the program where that type can be accessible and referenced.
When you declare a variable inside a block of code (like a method or an if statement structure), it will have a local scope, and it will be called a local-variable. Local scope means that you can’t refer to that variable outside that block of code. Consider the next example.
class Test
{
public void Test1()
{
int x = 0;
// some code goes here that uses the x variable
}
public void Test2()
{
Console.WriteLine(x);
}
}
Try to instantiate this class and you will get a compile-time error inside method Test2() telling you that the name x doesn’t exist and that’s because x is a local variable to the method Test1() and method Test2() doesn’t know anything about it. So x has a local score to method Test1() only. Consider the next example.
class Test
{
public void Test1()
{
int x = 0;
if(x == 0)
{
Console.WriteLine(“x equal to 0″);
}
}
}
Here, the method Test1() declares a local variable x (now x has a local-scope to the method). Try to instance this class and compile the code. It will work! Some beginners think that because I said that x has a local scope to method Test1() it will not be referenced from nested block (like the one we have here, the If statement) but that’s not true because any nested block inside Test1() method can refer x because x is local for the method and its all blocks of code.

In Class Questions #4, it says “An abstract class is essentially a blueprint for a class without any implementation.”
This is not true — an abstract class can have an implementation (this is what separates abstract classes from interfaces).

The job interview questions designed in presumption that programmer faced problem when writing code and learned how to solve it. There is a big difference in qualification of those who learn from programming and those who learned from your site. However, we can change the world and this site have right to exist. Mu suggestion is make it collective. That means allow everyone submit question and answer. Make group of experts that decide if question and answer is good for the site and publish it in sections not assorted. With that approach the site will grow quickly, become popular and, in the future, kills C# job interview questions, because everyone will answer them.
My regards.

# re: Interview Questions: C# 3/12/2006 10:55 AM difference between arrays clone and copyto methods
i still think the copyto method makes a deep copy and clone method makes a shallow copy , if i am wrong correct me.
if i have a source array
arr1[0]=a
arr1[1]=b
arr1[2]=c
and a target array
arr2[0]=null
arr2[1]=null
arr2[2]=null
arr2[3]=null
arr2[4]=null
then if i make a copy using copyto method
and with starting index of 1
so my result will be
arr2[0]=null
arr2[1]=a
arr2[2]=b
arr2[3]=c
arr2[4]=null
now according to u if this is also a shallow copy 1,2,3 indexes of target array(arr2[]) are pointing to the same memory location as arr1[]‘s.
Then arr2[0] , arr2[4] will be pointing to different memory locations , which wont be in contigous memory locations of arr2[1] or so.
Thats why i think copyto makes a deep copy not shallow . correct me if i am wrong

Question: 1) Can we have private constructor? when can I use them?
Yes, you can!!! This is used to mange the number of instances of the object the users can create. This is also known as the Singleton pattern. In singleton pattern you declare the constructor as private and instantiate it from a static method within you class. Please see the example below:
public sealed class MySingleton
{
static MySingleton instance = null;
private MySingleton()
{
}
public static MySingleton ClassInstance()
{
get
{
if (instance = = null)
{
instance = new MySingleton();
}
return instance;
}
}
}

On General Question 15, a
catch (System.Exception)
{
}
does not catch every exception.
catch
{
}
does.
Some Microsoft code under-the-covers does not generate System.Exceptions. When you make calls to native libraries, or even call some SqlConnection methods, these calls can throw an exception which is not inherited from System.Exception.

# re: Interview Questions: C# 5/23/2006 1:09 AM Amit
Hi All, The list of questions is good but does it matter? Think over it, pick a topic and start questioning yourself, you will find better questions to get answers on. The list is helpful, but only if you find the answers. The answers are more important. I speak with enough experience on this, I have interviewed many people on C# being in the industry for more than 8 years.
STOP trying to get everything served on a platter……SURE SHOT SERIES of questions?!! Lets discuss the answers friends, the answers people are giving should be MODERATED……..I take that approach…..list out the questions, lets say 50 questions, and then start looking for answers…..SORRY WON’T SERVE IT ALL TO YOU……….but for an example……..see below for WHAT I EXPECT HERE……..
WHAT IS SERIALIZATION?
Serialization is the process of converting an object or a con-nected graph of objects into a contiguous stream of bytes. Deserialization is the process of converting a contiguous stream of bytes back into its graph of connected objects. The ability to convert objects to and from a byte stream is an incredibly useful mechanism. Here are some examples:
• An application’s state (object graph) can easily be saved in a disk file or database and then restored the next time the application is run. ASP.NET saves and restores session state by way of serialization and deserialization.
• A set of objects can easily be copied to the system’s clipboard and then pasted into the same or another application. In fact, Windows® Forms uses this procedure.
• A set of objects can be cloned and set aside as a backup while a user manipulates the main set of objects.
• A set of objects can easily be sent over the network to a process running on another machine. The Microsoft® .NET Framework remoting architecture serializes and deserializes objects that are marshaled by value.
Why would you want to use serialization? The two most important reasons are
• to persist the state of an object to a storage medium so an exact copy can be recreated at a later stage, and
• to send the object by value from one application domain to another.

# re: Interview Questions: C#: Array.Copy vs Array.Clone 4/18/2005 9:54 AM vtsr
Array.CopyTo does not make a deep copy. This can be easily verified by running the following code.
public class MyClass
{
public static void Main()
{
Container[] containerArray = new Container[10];
for( int i=0; i < containerArray.Length; i++ ){
containerArray[i] = new Container( i );
}
Container[] containerArrayCopy = new Container[10];
containerArray.CopyTo( containerArrayCopy, 0 );
containerArrayCopy[2].V = 3;
for( int i=0; i Right click on the website (VD)

? Is it possible to debug java-script in .NET IDE? If yes, how?
[Rama Naresh Talluri]
Yes. Write debugger statement to stop the cursor for debugging .
? How do you create a webservice proxy without .NET IDE and how do you test it?
[Rama Naresh Talluri]
wsdl utility we can test by consuming our service either windows / web application
? How to debug an assembly which is on Server?
[Rama Naresh Talluri]
[assembly: AssemblyDescription("Debug")]
? How many ways can we maintain the state of a page?
[Rama Naresh Talluri]
1.Client Side [ Query string, hidden variables, view state,cookies]
2.Server side [application , session, database]
? How do we Generate and compile source code dynamically?
[Rama Naresh Talluri]
.Net provides powerful access to the IL code generation process through the System.CodeDom.Compiler and Microsoft.CSharp and Microsoft.VisualBasic namespaces. In these namespaces we can find the tools that allow us to compile an assembly either to disk or into memory. We can also need the Reflection namespace as it contains the tools to invoke an object and its methods once we have compiled the object.
? How to pass server control values from one form to another using in-line code?
[Rama Naresh Talluri]
Server.Transfer
? How to make a webservice call asynchronous?
[Rama Naresh Talluri]
//Create a new instance of the Web Service Class
localhost.Service1 service = new MyWebServiceApp.localhost.Service1();
//Make the asynchronous Web Service call and call WriteHello
service.BeginHelloWorld(new System.AsyncCallback (WriteHello), service);
private void WriteHello(System.IAsyncResult oRes)
{
//End the call
localhost.Service1 service = (MyWebServiceApp.localhost.Service1) oRes.AsyncState;
//Write the call result to a MessageBox
MessageBox.Show(service.EndHelloWorld(oRes));
}
? How to invoke a webservice using javascript?
[Rama Naresh Talluri]
Function init()
{
Service.useservice(“/services/test.asmx?WSDL”, “MyTest”);
Var iCallID;
iCallID = service.MyTest.callService(“add”,1,2);
}
? List out all the possible ways of maintaining the state of a session.
[Rama Naresh Talluri]
InProc
OutProc [State server, sql]
? What is the use of multicast delegate?
[Rama Naresh Talluri]
A multicast delegate can call more than one method.
? What is the purpose of a private constructor?
[Rama Naresh Talluri]
Prevent the creation of instance for a class
? Differentiate Dispose and Finalize.
[Rama Naresh Talluri]
Finalize is called by the Garbage Collector, and the state of manage objects cannot be guaranteed, so we can not reference them. Also, we cannot determine when the GC will run, and which objects it will Finalize.
Dispose is called by the programmer, and is used to dispose of managed and unmanaged objects. Within we dispose method, we release all of our resources and call GC.SuppressFinalize as we have done the work of the GC.
? What is the purpose of Singleton pattern?
[Rama Naresh Talluri]
Singleton pattern is used to make sure that only one instance of a given class exists.
? Difference between structure and class.
[Rama Naresh Talluri]
Structures are value types;
classes are reference types.
Structures use stack allocation;
classes use heap allocation.
All structure elements are Public by default;
class variables and constants are Private by default, while other class members are Public by default.
Structure elements cannot be declared as Protected; class members can.
Structure variable declarations cannot specify initializers or initial sizes for arrays; class variable declarations can.
Structures implicitly inherit from the System.ValueType class and cannot inherit from any other type;
classes can inherit from any class or classes other than System.ValueType.
Structures are not inheritable; classes are.
Structures are never terminated, so the common language runtime (CLR) never calls the Finalize method on any structure; classes are terminated by the garbage collector (GC), which calls Finalize on a
class when it detects there are no active references remaining.
? Difference between DOM and SAX parser.
[Rama Naresh Talluri]
DOM Approach is useful for small documents in which the program needs to process a large portion of the document.
SAX approach is useful for large documents in which the program only needs to process a small portion of the document
SAX parsers generally requires more code than the DOM interface.
Unless we build a DOM style tree from our application’s internal representation for the data, we can’t as easily write the XML file back to disk.
The DOM tree is not constructed, so there are potentially less memory allocation.
If we convert the data in the DOM tree to another format, the SAX API may help to remove the intermediate step
If we do not need all the XML data in memory, the SAX API allows us to process the data as it is parsed
? Under what circumstances do you use DOM parser and SAX parser
[Rama Naresh Talluri]
DOM Approach is useful for small documents in which the program needs to process a large portion of the document.
SAX approach is useful for large documents in which the program only needs to process a small portion of the document
If we do not need all the XML data in memory, the SAX API allows us to process the data as it is parsed
? What is a well-formed XML and is the purpose of Diffgram?
[Rama Naresh Talluri]
A textual object is a well-formed XML document if it satisfies all the following points
1. Taken as a whole, it matches the production labeled document.
2. It meets all the well-formedness constraints given in this specification.
3. Each of the parsed entities which is referenced directly or indirectly within the document is well-formed.
The purpose of Diffgram is the Ability to pass parameters. It contains the tags that specify the original and new state of data
? Differentiate between legacy ADO recordset and .NET dataset.
What are typed datasets.
[Rama Naresh Talluri]
Recordset provides data one row at a time.
Connection is open .
Dataset is a data structure which represents the complete table data at same time.
Dataset is just a data store and manipulation is done through DataAdapters in .NET
Typed DataSets generate classes that expose each object the in the DataSet in Type-safe manner. It will raise error at compile time if any mismatch of column data type.

public void TheMethod() {Console.Write(“1″);}
void IFoo.TheMethod() {Console.Write(“2″);}
void IFoo2.TheMethod() {Console.Write(“3″);}
}
Class1 myClass = new Class1();
myClass.TheMethod(); // writes out “1″;
((IFoo) myClass).TheMethod(); // writes out “2″;
((IFoo2) myClass).TheMethod(); // writes out “3″;

I am afraid the answer to the 4th question is wrong.
4. Describe the accessibility modifier “protected internal”.
It is available to classes that are within the same assembly and derived from the specified base class. – THIS IS WRONG.
The correct statement is:
It is available to classes that are within the same assembly OR derived from the specified base class.
(msdn states as following: Access is limited to the current assembly or types derived from the containing class.)
Please see C# Reference for details.
# re: Interview Questions: C# 9/11/2006 4:08 AM Oleg Safronov
The answer to the 9th question is also incorrect.
> Can you store multiple data types in System.Array?
> No.
Here you’re sample code cutting:
=================================
Class1() {}
Class2() {}
Class3()
{
void main()
{
System.Array arr = new object[3];
arr.SetValue( new Class1(), 0 );
arr.SetValue( new Class2(), 1 );
arr.SetValue( new Class3(), 2 );
}
}
=================================
Since Class1, Class2 and Class3 are different datatypes the right answer to the question is YES.

For question no 9, I think your answer is wrong.
An array can contain objects of different types, but all these object must be subclasses of the type in the declaration of the array.
And yes, it is true, arrays cannot contain different value types like int, long, double, float etc.

ADO.Net
8. What does the Dispose method do with the connection object?
The Dispose method closes the connection. The Dispose method and the Close method are equivalent. The first time a connection object is created, a connection pool is created. Subsequent instantiations of the connection object does not create a new connection pool (unless the connection string changes), a connection is retrieved from the pool. The connection pool remains in memory until the application exits.

# Java Questions 11/13/2006 12:05 AM Sarat Gollapudi
I am trying to write a generic method that takes an enum as argument and returns list of name=value pairs contained in the enum, i.e.. some thing like:
public <T extends Enum> List getList(T t)
{
List list = new ArrayList(t.values().length);
for( T type : t.values())
{
list.add(new NV(type.name(), type.toString()));
}
return list;
}
Javac is complaining about missing values() method in java.lang.Enum. Do you know what am I doing wrong?

HI,
Question 9 in Class Questions.
1. If both interfaces have method with the same name and also needs the same implementation, then provide only one implementation in the inheriting class.
2. If both interfaces have the same method name, but the implementation differs. In this case implement the method with interface name.When you creare object you can not access these method implementation with the object reference, you have to referer or call the method with the specific interface reference.
For example
interface A
{
void X();
}
interface B
{
void X();
}
class M:A,B
{
public void A.X()
{
}
public void B.X()
{
}
}
Class N
{
A oa = new M();
oa.X();
B ob = new M();
ob.X();
}

# re: Interview Questions: C# 1/19/2007 8:48 PM T. O.
Explanation to question #1 is not accurate.
> Are private class-level variables inherited?
> Yes, but they are not accessible. Although they are not visible
> or accessible via the class interface, they are inherited.
CORRECTION:
Private variables ARE accessible to nested classes.
E.G.
class Outer {
private int bar = 0;
class Inner : Outer {
public int Bar {
get {return bar;}
}
}
}
# re: Interview Questions: C# 1/19/2007 8:50 PM T. O.
^
I meant question #3 on above post (not question #1).
# re: Interview Questions: C# 1/19/2007 10:30 PM T. O.
Explanation is not complete.
> Can you allow a class to be inherited,
> but prevent the method from being
> over-ridden?
> Yes. Just leave the class public and
> make the method sealed.
You CAN’T mark a method as sealed unless it overrides the base method. To prevent overriding of a method, don’t specify the “virtual” keyword.
# re: Interview Questions: C# 1/19/2007 10:55 PM T. O.
Clarification
> Can you inherit multiple interfaces?
> Yes. .NET does support multiple interfaces.
An interface can INHERIT multiple interfaces. However, a class doesn’t INHERIT an interface. A class IMPLEMENTS an interface. Hence a class can’t have multiple inheritance.

Overloading means the methods have the same name but different argument types or argument counts. With overriding, the method signature remains unchanged.
# re: Interview Questions: C# 1/19/2007 11:12 PM T. O.
> What are the different ways a

> Different parameter data types,

The “different order of parameters” is a bit misleading. It’s the data type of the parameters that really counts.
e.g.
int sum(int a, int b)
~ same signatures ~
int sum(int b, int a)

Debug methods are disabled in release build mode while Trace methods remain enabled.
