Product Description

Book Description
The Visual Studio .NET Black Book covers the .NET architecture, libraries, and services, and how to use them from the programming languages supported by VS.NET. This unique book explores the .NET architecture in a non-language specific way. It covers the new Web and database access technologies in WebForms, WinForms, ADO.NET, and ASP.NET. It also includes an emphasis on XML, including the SOAP protocol, as it will be used extensively for passing data around components within distributed applications.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Reference Manual, 29 Feb 2004
By Mr. Charles A. Samson "samsonca" (Scotland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Readers should not look on this book as any form of .NET training manual, and anyone new to .NET would be advised to read other books such as 'Fast Track Visual Basic .NET' before reading even the introduction.

That said, once you have a rudimentary understanding of .NET, then this book is great !!!!

It is divided into Chapters which deal with each of the NameSpaces in the .NET framework. Each Chapter is then divided into 'In Depth' and 'Immediate Solutions' sections. The 'In Depth' sections provide an understanding of what classes are supported by each NameSpace, and the 'Immediate Solutions' section highlights details of the classes and methods available.

There are a large number of 'How to ...' examples and each provide the code in VB, C#, and C++. Each section makes easy reading, and readers are not required to read the Chapters or sections in order. This means that you can 'pick and mix' the sections you read, depending on what you want to study first.

Don't expect this book to provide a complete listing of all the elements of the .NET framework, that would probably make it several thousand pages long. But it does cover the majority of the elements that most programmers will use during their lifetime.

So, to summarise, read another book to learn the basics of VB or C#, then read this. After that, you will be more than ready to tackle your first serious .NET application.
