Programming C#

Meer over het boek

Designed for developing applications on Microsoft's .NET platform, C# is a simple, type-safe, object- and component-oriented language that is also Internet-savvy. In this comprehensive guide, noted author Jesse Liberty provides experienced professionals with the tools needed for quick productivity. The book begins with a rapid overview of C# syntax, introducing essential keywords and concepts that make C# and .NET effective for building desktop and web applications. Key topics include classes and objects, inheritance, polymorphism, operator overloading, structs, interfaces, arrays, collections, string handling, exceptions, delegates, and events. The second part focuses on using C# with three core application frameworks—ASP.NET, .NET Windows Forms, and ADO.NET—to create typical desktop and Internet applications, including web-oriented applications and standards-based web services. Finally, the third part explores the rich functionality of the .NET Framework, covering deployment management with assemblies, working with metadata, marshaling objects across boundaries, threading, data streams, and integrating with legacy Windows APIs and COM objects. The text and examples have been updated for Visual Studio .NET 2003 and the .NET Framework 1.1 SDK, with added tips for Java, C++, and VB6 programmers, revised chapters on delegates and events, and updated content on web applications and services.
