Product Description
This book gives intermediate-to-advanced Visual C++ and MFC programmers all the in-depth knowledge and skills they need to build and deploy state-of-the-art multi-tiered applications. Expert developer Jim Maloney helps developers master every key technology involved, including COM/DCOM, MTS, ADO, and OLE DB. Begin with a clear overview of multi-tier development in Microsoft environments: the goals and the challenges, including avoiding network bottlenecks. Then, master multi-tier development by building a robust, three-tier application. Review using objects in Visual C++ applications; then learn how to implement Win32 presentation layer clients and develop applications that run over TCP/IP. Understand database access using ActiveX Data Objects (ADO); implement an ActiveX-based object model; and learn the key fundamentals of DCOM, step-by-step. Use Microsoft Transaction Server (MTS) to implement your application's data service layer; build Web interfaces with Active Server Pages (ASP); deploy your application with Internet Information Server (IIS4), and much more.
