Not only does this book describe the goals and architecture of the .NET Framework, but it also demonstrates how it implements facilities and services to meet these goals. This book shows developers how to produce generic frameworks, libraries, classes, and tools to be used in the .NET Framework.

Tapadiya takes a straightforward, hands-on approach to explain everything readers need to know from development to deployment and maintenance for this platform--all from a developer's perspective. Using C# as the primary language, and with plenty of code examples throughout, this book is an excellent way to learn.

'Programming .NET Components', second edition, updated to cover .NET 2.0., introduces the Microsoft .NET Framework for building components on Windows platforms. From its many lessons, tips, and guidelines, readers will learn how to use the .NET Framework to program reusable, maintainable, and robust components.

CD-ROM contains: Searchable electronic version of text -- Source code for more than 75 complete sample programs and components written in C# -- .NET Framework SDK, plus service pack 1.

This complete, comprehensive reference is for both experienced Perl programmers and beginners. The book includes all the basic documentation for the core Perl languages.

The programming language C# was built with the future of application development in mind. Pursuing that vision, C#'s designers succeeded in creating a safe, simple, component-based, high-performance language that works effectively with Microsoft's .NET Framework. Now the favored language among those programming for the Microsoft platform, C# continues to grow in popularity as more developers discover its strength and flexibility. And, from the start, C# developers have relied on Programming C# both as an introduction to the language and a means of further building their skills. The fourth edition of Programming C#--the top-selling C# book on the market--has been updated to the C# ISO standard as well as changes to Microsoft's implementation of the language. It also provides notes and warnings on C# 1.1 and C# 2.0. Aimed at experienced programmers and web developers, Programming C#, 4th Edition, doesn't waste too much time on the basics. Rather, it focuses on the features and programming patterns unique to the C# language. New C# 2005 features covered in-depth include: Visual Studio 2005 Generics Collection interfaces and iterators Anonymous methods New ADO.NET data controls Fundamentals of Object-Oriented Programming Author Jesse Liberty, an acclaimed web programming expert and entrepreneur, teaches C# in a way that experienced programmers will appreciate by grounding its applications firmly in the context of Microsoft's .NET platform and the development of desktop and Internet applications. Liberty also incorporates reader suggestions from previous editions to help create the most consumer-friendly guide possible.

A practical introduction to programming in Perl utilizing the rich capabilities of Perl and the services provided by .NET.

Implement robust applications by applying efficient Design Patterns with .NET 5 and C# KEY FEATURES ● Detailed theoretical concepts covered, including the use of encapsulation, interfaces, and inheritance. ● Access to solutions applied for software strategy and final product output. ● Simplified demonstration of real applications implementing numerous design patterns. DESCRIPTION This book covers detailed aspects of Design Patterns and Object-Oriented Programming concepts using the most modern version of the C# language and .NET platform, including many real-world examples and good practice guidelines that help developers in building robust and extensible applications. The book begins with the essential concepts of C# programming and the .NET platform. You get your foundation strong by understanding SOLID Principles and the actual implementation of reliable applications. You will be working on most common Design Patterns such as Abstract Factory, Adapter, Composite, Proxy, Command, Strategy, Observer, Factory Method, Singleton, Builder, Interpreter, Mediator, and many other patterns that will help you to create solid enterprise applications. You will also witness the performance of these design patterns in a real software development environment with the help of practical examples. After learning the most common Design Patterns practiced in .NET enterprise applications, the reader will be able to understand and apply good practices of software development based on the object-oriented paradigm to develop complex enterprise applications efficiently and simply. WHAT YOU WILL LEARN ● Fine-tune your knowledge about interfaces, polymorphism, and encapsulation. ● Learn to practice implementing design patterns in enterprise applications. ● Implement rich design patterns: Observer, Strategy, Command, Proxy, and more. ● Get to learn the latest additional design patterns such as Builder, Bridge, and Decorator. ● Includes illustrations, examples, and real use-cases of .NET 5.0 applications. WHO THIS BOOK IS FOR This book is for .NET developers, application developers, and software engineers who want to develop .NET applications with proven techniques and build error-free applications. This book also attracts fresh graduates and entry-level developers as long as basic knowledge about .NET is known to them. TABLE OF CONTENTS 1. C# Fundamentals 2. Introduction to .NET 5 3.

Practical Database Programming with Visual Basic.NET The most up-to-date Visual Basic.NET programming textbook—covering both fundamentals and advanced-level programming techniques—complete with examples and solutions Visual Basic.NET (VB.NET) is an object-oriented computer programming language that can be viewed as an evolution of the classic Visual Basic (VB), which is implemented on the .NET Framework. Microsoft currently supplies two major implementations of Visual Basic: Microsoft Visual Studio (which is commercial software) and Microsoft Visual Studio Express (which is free of charge). Forgoing the large amounts of programming codes found in most database programming books, Practical Database Programming with Visual Basic.NET shows students and professionals both how to develop professional and practical database programs in a Visual Basic.NET environment by using Visual Studio.NET Data Tools and Wizards related to ADO.NET 4.0, and how to apply codes that are auto-generated by solely using Wizards. The fully updated Second Edition: Covers both fundamentals and advanced database programming techniques Introduces three popular database systems with practical examples including MS Access, SQL Server 2008, and Oracle Features more than fifty sample projects with detailed illustrations and explanations to help students understand key techniques and programming technologies Includes downloadable programming codes and exercise questions This book provides undergraduate and graduate students as well as database programmers and software engineers with the necessary tools to handle the database programming issues in the Visual Studio.NET environment.
