The book will be a comprehensive, value–priced reference for the entire Visual Studio 2005. Microsoft’s catch–phrase for Visual Studio 2005 is personal productivity. The goal of personal productivity is to allow the developer to work at a higher level of abstraction. The goal of this book is to show the reader how to build applications using these productivity features of VS. As a result, language syntax and programming constructs are de–emphasized in favor of showing the user how to let VS generate the code. This book takes a layered approach similar to how most applications are architected. When developing a new application, developers often divide up the work for the user interface, service layer (data access), and domain classes (coding). Whether there is one developer playing all three roles, or three developers doing each, this approach allows the reader to easily reference the layer they are constructing. Minibooks include: Book I: Visual Studio 2005 Overview. Book II: Getting Started with Visual Studio. Book III: Building Applications with Visual Studio 2005. Book IV: Getting Acquainted with Data Access. Book V: Coding. Book VI: Going the Extra Mile. Book VII: Extending the Family. Read more...

At that time, the .NET platform was still a beta product, and in many ways, so was this book. This is not to say that the early editions of this text did not have merit—after all, the book was a 2002 Jolt Award finalist and it won the 2003 Referenceware Excellence Award. However, over the years that author Andrew Troelsen spent working with the common language runtime (CLR), he gained a much deeper understanding of the .NET platform and the subtleties of the C# programming language, and he feels that this fifth edition of the book is as close to a “final release” as he’s come yet.

For example, Visual Studio offers several project templates that you can use to develop your site. Visual Studio also supports a number of development modes, including using Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) directly to test your site during development, using a built-in Web server, and developing your site over an FTP connection. With the debugger in Visual Studio, you can run the site and step through the critical areas of your code to find problems. With the Visual Studio Designer, you can develop effective user interfaces by dropping control elements onto a canvas to see how they appear visually. And when you are ready to deploy your application, Visual Studio makes it easy to create a deployment package. These are but a few of the features built into the ASP.NET framework when paired with Visual Studio. The purpose of this Read more...

WMI has a much narrower focus and somewhat limited audience than .NET. Together, these two technologies are a cornerstone of Microsoft's strategic vision, aiming to make Windows a supreme enterprise computing environment. .NET System Management Services is a detailed and practical overview of the enterprise system management facilities, available as part of the Framework Class Library (FCL) of the .NET Framework. While WMI, which is a centerpiece of Microsoft's enterprise management technology, is a fairly well researched topic, .NET system management documentation is scarce and books are non-existent. This book not only acts as a comprehensive and sensible supplement to often inadequate documentation, but also covers some completely overlooked aspects of .NET and WMI programming. After reading .NET System Management Services, .NET software developers and system administrators will possess a solid understanding of the fundamental concepts behind WMI and should be well positioned for rapidly developing custom management tools, often more flexible and powerful than any expensive off-the-shelf software.

A few sections only apply to MOSS 2007, but those have been clearly identified. Since the beta release of MOSS 2007, we have been working non-stop with this product and found that almost every SharePoint developer shares a common interest in at least four topics: Windows Workflow Foundation, Business Intelligence, InfoPath, and developing Ajax-enabled web parts. We fondly refer to these topics as the Big Four. We expect that in the near future, every SharePoint developer needs to have a good working knowledge about applying these technologies in a SharePoint context and it should come as no surprise that this book dedicates a considerable part to the discussion of the Big Four. We have made sure to include many other current technologies and discuss how to apply them in a SharePoint context. Please make sure to check the table of contents for details, but topics include the ins and outs of building web parts, Visual Studio 2005 Extensions for WSS, enhancing web part development using the Guidance Automation Toolkit, the newly added support for SharePoint in SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 2.0, working with Forms Services 2007, and the BizTalk WSS adapter.

This title's concise, code-centered approach, backed up by judicious discussion of the finer technical points of .NET, is what helps make it a success. After touring the history of standards used for distributed computing over the years, from DCE/RPC to CORBA to COM and related Microsoft technologies, the author zeroes in on .NET remoting. Short, digestible examples highlight the relevant objects and APIs useful to create and invoke objects remotely. From the basics, the book moves forward with other possibilities for designers, whether using by value or reference arguments for objects, client-activated vs. server-activated objects, and a useful section on asynchronous processing for remote function calls. Early examples use the APIs and strategies you'll need to work on your own, and the author highlights "best practices" like using class factories. Detailed discussion of deployment options (using XML) is followed by a quick discussion of security and authentication and then managing object lifetimes (including programmatic options through leasing and sponsors). Coverage of using strongly named assemblies (for the Global Assembly Cache, GAC) and versioning stresses the finer points of how different versions of .N Read more...

A strong understanding of the role threads play in program execution, how multiple threads can interact in order to make efficient programs, and the pitfalls to beware of when developing multithreaded applications, are all core to a developer's ability to develop effective C# programs. This book will cover how .NET applications are executed, the life cycle of a thread in .NET, how the .NET Framework uses threads, how threads work in an event-driven environment, how we can avoid race conditions and deadlocks, how the activity of multiple threads can be synchronized, and how to debug multithreaded applications. We finish it off by describing the creation of a multithreaded network application. What is great about this book? Threads are fundamental to the way GUI and server applications operate; if your code is running in a GUI, then you're already writing code in a threaded environment. An ASP.NET page also runs in a threaded environment. This book aims to cover the tricky issues of threading in .NET, and particularly to do so from the perspective of C# developers. Threading is by nature not easy to grasp, but a necessary step towards mastery of programming for the .NET platform. From the Publisher This book is aimed at practicing c# developers who need to ensure that their applications can utilize the threading capabilities of the .NET Framework. Read more...

Essential LINQ is the first LINQ book written by leading members of Microsoft’s LINQ and C# teams. Writing for architects, developers, and development managers, these Microsoft insiders share their intimate understanding of LINQ, revealing new patterns and best practices for getting the most out of it. Calvert and Kulkarni begin by clearly explaining how LINQ resolves the long-time “impedance mismatch” between object-oriented code and relational databases. Next, they show how LINQ integrates querying into C# as a “first-class citizen.” Using realistic code examples, they show how LINQ provides a strongly typed, IntelliSense-aware technology for working with data from any source, including SQL databases, XML files, and generic data structures. Calvert and Kulkarni carefully explain LINQ’s transformative, composable, and declarative capabilities. By fully illuminating these three concepts, the authors allow developers to discover LINQ’s full power. In addition to covering core concepts and hands-on LINQ development in C# with LINQ to Objects, LINQ to XML, LINQ to SQL, and LINQ to Entities, they also present advanced topics and new LINQ implementations developed by the LINQ commun Read more...

Brownfield Application Development in .NET shows developers how to approach legacy applications with the state-of-the-art concepts, patterns, and tools developers apply to new projects. Using an existing application as an example, this book guides readers in applying the techniques and best practices they need to make a brownfield application more maintainable and receptive to change. As the book proceeds, the authors introduce frameworks and tools commonly used today while still approaching the subject from a conceptual level so that you can substitute alternate tools as appropriate. Because the book is based on the authors' experiences, Brownfield Application Development in .NET moves beyond the theories and shows readers the techniques they need to be successful. Read more...

A Domain Specific Language (DSL) helps a developer clearly express the intent of the code, and thus make it easier to work on the core business problem. Developers who migrate to Ruby from Java love Boo's ability to define a DSL for .NET in a just few lines of code. In Boo, the developer can define simple DSLs for .NET applications without suffering through the awkward XML usually required. Building Domain Specific Languages in Boo shows how to write DSLs for .NET. It starts by teaching what a DSL is. Then, it provides a fast-paced Boo tutorial. Readers immediately start putting this handy language to productive use as they learn how to implement DSLs in real code. The author shows how to create several types of DSLs, all with the goal of making the developer more productive. Along the way, readers learn the Boo they need techniques to scare away the evil XML.
