For all experienced programming students who want to achieve true mastery of Microsoft's C# language for advanced .NET application, Web, and Web Services development.

This book gives experienced developers practical insight for building sophisticated .NET applications using Microsoft's advanced C# language. Using a running case study and extensive code examples, the authors illuminate essential .NET concepts such as interfaces, attributes, collections, threading, remoting, security, and versioning, and introduce powerful new .NET technologies, including ADO.NET and ASP.NET. This is the latest book in the Integrated .NET Series from Object Innovations and Prentice Hall PTR, focused guides to .NET written by expert practitioners and instructors. All books in this series teach in a systematic, step-by-step manner, using rich examples and a running case study that shows how to build a complete system. The books integrate perfectly: developers who want an even stronger understanding of the basics of C# can refer to the companion introductory title, Introduction to C# Using .NET.

• Self-contained C# overview—Begins with a concise, modular introduction to C# syntax and basic features for students who need it.

  • Helps developers with no C# experience get “up-to-speed” quickly, without frustrating intermediate-to-advanced-level students who are already comfortable with the basics of C#. Ex.___

• Systematic, step-by-step coverage—Begins with a simple console application, then gradually introduces more complex and subtle techniques.

  • Flattens the .NET learning curve, enabling students to build their skills incrementally. Ex.___

• Solutions for effective Windows, Web, and Web Services development—Includes detailed coverage of using Windows Forms to build next-generation graphical user interfaces, and using ASP.NET to deliver advanced Web applications and services.

  • Covers every form of development students are likely to encounter, including today's extremely popular Web Services. paradigm. Ex.___

• Detailed coverage of database access—Introduces practical techniques for integrating databases using Microsoft's advanced ADO.NET technology.

  • Helps students master database integration techniques that are central to virtually all contemporary application and Web service development. Ex.___

• Practical .NET security coverage—Presents today's best techniques for securing .NET applications.

  • Helps students overcome the key obstacle to effective distributed and Web development in the enterprise: security. Ex.___

• Insights for programmers experienced in other languages—Carefully designed to help experienced C++, Java, and Visual Basic programmers leverage what they already know.

  • Enables experienced developers to become effective with C# more rapidly. Ex.___

• Case study shared across all books in the series—This and all other books in the Integrated .NET Series from Object Innovations and Prentice Hall PTR share appropriate facets of a detailed case study covering the entire development process.

  • Students can more effectively leverage what they've learned as they move from one .NET book and skillset to the next. Because the case study covers the entire development lifecycle, students will understand the challenges that can arise at all stages of .NET development. Ex.___

Build industrial-strength .NET applications with C#!

• Practical, useful information on the .NET Framework, the Common Language Runtime, ADO.NET, ASP.NET, Web Services, security, interoperability, and more
• Running case study: see how concepts work together when you build .NET applications
• Experienced C++, Java, and Visual Basic programmers: become effective with .NET!

This book gives experienced developers all the practical insight they need to build enterprise applications for Microsoft's .NET platform using C#. Using extensive code examples and a running case study, the authors illuminate the .NET concepts and technologies that offer the greatest power and value. They cover the entire process of constructing a .NET application: creating a monolithic C# console application; enhancing it with a Windows Forms interface; isolating functionality inside components, adding database access and security; and finally, delivering functionality through ASP.NET and Web Services.

• .NET Framework and Common Language Runtime fundamentals for experienced programmers
• Key .NET features: interfaces, attributes, collections, threading, remoting, assemblies, and more
• Hands-on coverage of ADO.NET, ASP.NET, Web Services, and user interface programming
• Component deployment and versioning
• Ensuring interoperability with diverse and legacy systems
• Includes a self-contained C# overview for those new to the language
