Chapter 13: Additional OOP Techniques

Overview

In this chapter, you round off your discussion on the C# language by looking at a few bits and pieces that haven't quite fitted in elsewhere. This isn't to say that these techniques aren't useful — just that they haven't fallen under any of the headings you've worked through so far.

Specifically, you will look at:

• The :: operator and the global namespace qualifier

• Custom exceptions and exception recommendations

• Events

• Anonymous methods

You also make some final modifications to the CardLib code that you've been building up throughout the last few chapters, and even use CardLib to create a card game.
