Product Description

Book Description
Since the announcement of Visual Basic .NET, a lot has been made of its powerful new object-oriented features. However, very little discussion has been devoted to the practice of object-oriented programming at its most fundamental level - that is, building classes. The truth is, whatever code you write in Visual Basic .NET, you are writing classes that fall within the class hierarchy of the .NET Framework. Visual Basic .NET Class Design Handbook was conceived as a guide to help you design these classes effectively, by looking at what control we have over our classes, and how Visual Basic .NET turns our class definitions into executable code.

his book will give you a deep and thorough understanding of the implications of all the decisions you can make in designing a class, so you are equipped to develop classes that are robust, flexible and reusable. In short, this book will take you from a theoretical understanding of the basic principles of OO programming to the ability to write well-designed classes in actual applications. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Andy Olsen - Andy is a freelance consultant engaged in training, consultancy, and development work in Microsoft .NET and related technologies. Andy studied Physics at Southampton University in England, and began his professional life as a C developer. As the 1990s came and went, Andy migrated into C++, Visual Basic, Java, and OO Analysis and Design using UML. He has been using Microsoft development tools and technologies since 1987, and has fond memories and many tall stories to tell of times gone by.

James Speer - James has worked in software development since 1987. Beginning his career with BCPL and C++, James has more recently specialized in distributed middle-tier development using Visual Basic, XML, MSMQ, and SQL Server.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book, 13 Aug 2002
By A Customer
I am an experienced VB6 developer with a reasonable knowledge of OOP techniques, so when .NET arrived I was eager to learn about the new OOP techniques I could employ in my applications.

This book did not disappoint. Not only does it show you how to use stuff like inheritance, it also provides a consistent 'best practice' feel throughout the book. And unlike so many multi-author Wrox books these days, it also has a consistent writing style.

The text is easy to read and the examples seem reasonably useful which helped myself to actually understand how and when these new VB features could be used.

Very good indeed.

PS – A C# version covering stuff like operator overloading would be useful.
