Lock keyword in C# | Thread Locking In C#

The lock keyword in C# is used to place around a critical section of code, where we want to allow only one thread to access the resource at a time. Any other thread cannot access the lock and it waits for the lock to be released.

In this post series, we will go through the understanding of the lock keyword, monitor, mutex, and semaphore available in C#.

All of these classes (lock, monitor, mutex, and semaphore) provide a synchronization mechanism to protect the shared code or resources in a multithreaded application.

In C#, multithreading is the ability of a central processing unit (CPU), or a single-core or multi-core processor, to execute multiple threads concurrently. This allows the program to perform multiple tasks simultaneously, making the program more efficient and responsive.

C# Reflection: Everything You Need to Know about Reflection in C# (With Examples)

Reflection in C# is the process of retrieving metadata of types, modules, assemblies, and more during runtime. With reflection, you can dynamically create an instance of a type, associate a type with an existing object, obtain the type of an existing object, and call its methods, fields, and properties.

In this article, we will explore the concept of C# Reflection, its hierarchy, when to use it, and some examples of its implementation.

A Private Constructor is an instance constructor used to prevent creating an instance of a class if it has no instance fields or methods. It is used in classes that contain only static members.

In this article, we will explore the concept of a private constructor, its uses, and how it can be implemented in C# programming.

Introduction

In object-oriented programming, a copy constructor plays a crucial role in creating a new object by copying the variables from an existing object.

Copy constructor allows us to initialize a fresh instance with the values of an already existing instance. Although C# doesn’t inherently provide a copy constructor, we can create one according to our specific requirements.

In this article, we’ll try to understand the concept of Copy constructors in C# with examples.

C# Static Constructor (with Examples)

A static constructor is a method that initializes static data members of a class or executes a specific task that needs to be done only once. This constructor is automatically invoked before the first instance of a class is created, or any static data members are accessed.

In this post, We will learn about the C# static constructor with multiple examples.

C# String VS StringBuilder | Top 5 Differences between string and StringBuilder

Last updated on May 23rd, 2024 at 05:10 pm

In C#, the string and StringBuilder classes serve different purposes for handling text data.

The string class is immutable, meaning its value cannot be changed once it is created. It is commonly used for string manipulation methods like concatenation, splitting, and replacing.
On the other hand, the StringBuilder class is mutable, allowing you to modify its value without creating a new instance in memory each time.

In this article we will learn the Difference between string and StringBuilder in C# with multiple code examples.

Value Type and Reference Type in C#

In this article, we’ll explore the difference between value types and reference types in the C# programming language.

C# is a strongly-typed language, meaning every variable has a specific type that dictates the values it can hold and the operations it can perform. There are two main categories of types in C#: value types and reference types.

The diagram below shows the different data types in C#.
