    C# object model / documentation

    Hi,
    when I was programmin ASP/JScript I had a very nice utilitiy which I got
    from MSDN (Script56.CHM). It's simply a help file but containing object
    orientiated documentation of all scripting languages. Very handy and easy to
    maneuver and quickly find information needed.

    Is there something similiar available for C#? At least some web page showing
    the object model of this language?

    thx!

    Davíð,

    The object model for .NET is rather large, much, much larger than the
    object model in ASP.NET (and the object model for ASP.NET vs ASP is larger
    as well). To have one chart with all the objects on it would mean that you
    need a very, very large chart.

    I think the best bet is to use the .NET framework SDK documentation, as
    it should contain all the documentation you need for the classes that are
    part of the base class library (BCL).

      Thank you Nicholas

      I realise the .Net model is huge so I had rather thought of c# model only
      much I had a Jscript & Vscript model? For example, when JScripting I could
      look up all methods of the String object to find a particular, needed
      function...

      Thx!

        Davíð,

        That's the thing, there is no such thing as a "C#" model. Every class
        that you see in C# is really in the BCL, or an alias for a class in the BCL
        (for example, string is really an alias for System.String).

          Here is a keyword reference. I think that is what he was actually looking
          for.
