Product Description

Product Description

The Microsoft® .NET Framework allows developers to quickly build robust, secure ASP.NET Web Forms and XML Web service applications, Windows® Forms applications, tools, and types. Find out all about its common language runtime and learn how to leverage its power to build, package, and deploy any kind of application or component. APPLIED MICROSOFT .NET FRAMEWORK PROGRAMMING is ideal for anyone who understands object-oriented programming concepts such as data abstraction, inheritance, and polymorphism. The book carefully explains the extensible type system of the .NET Framework, examines how the runtime manages the behavior of types, and explores how an application manipulates types. While focusing on C#, it presents concepts applicable to all programming languages that target the .NET Framework.

Topics covered include:

  • The .NET Framework architecture
  • Building, packaging, deploying, and administering applications and their types
  • Building and deploying shared assemblies
  • Type fundamentals
  • Primitive, reference, and value types
  • Operations common to all objects
  • Type members and accessibility
  • Constants, fields, methods, properties, and events
  • Working with text
  • Enumerated types and bit flags
  • Array types
  • Interfaces
  • Custom attributes
  • Delegates
  • Error handling with exceptions
  • Automatic memory management
  • AppDomains and reflection
  • Includes coverage of C#

Format:Paperback
A must have for any professional software developer who wishes to make a living from the .NET Framework.
This is not a C#, VB or even IL book. Quite simply, it is an authoritative inspection of the .NET CLR and parts of the FCL, exposing the particulars, nuances and idiosyncrasies of programming for the CLR.
As such, the book expects you to have prior experience of programming, and the C# examples are used to demonstrate several CLR/GC/FCL concepts rather than teach coding.
Java programmers will find some information pretty familiar, (strings, garbage-collection, value types vs objects, implementation vs interface inheritance etc.), - and may even be somewhat annoyed that there is very little reference to Java here. (You know why).
Nonetheless this is an excellent book which is not going to be slated by anyone who shuns mediocrity.
The author examines the .NET framework with the throughness of a real enthusiast, - the book is full of gems and no true professional should embark on a major/serious .NET project without first examining this book in depth.

Excellent! 13 Feb 2004
Format:Paperback
This is easily the most easy to read .NET framework book that I've seen. It's a great reference and is so well formatted that it's easy to simply read right through, largely due to the fact that the chapters are nice and small so it doesn't feel like hard work. One thing to note though is that ALL the code samples are in C#.

Format:Paperback
Except for the use of the invented word parameterful, I can't find one thing about this book that isn't excellent.
It gives detailed, yet easily digested explanations of every aspect of the .NET framework from the ground up. The CLR, CTS, framework libraries, execution engine, it even details the layout of executable files.
This is the best .NET framework book I've read and I can't see many others coming close to it, with perhaps the exception of Don Box's much anticipated book Essential .NET.
