You may have done this, you may have been 'the one', if not, it will happen one day!
Case 1 So there you are in the boardroom, discussing some concept, plan or code strategy. Someone doesn't quite grasp what you are trying to explain, so you think a quick drawing on the Dry Wipe board will help get the subject matter across. You stand up at the board, pick up the pen, and doodle way.........then it dawns on you, you have used a permanent marker that some fool has left near the board. Pani... |

When creating a distributed system you frequently need to provide for communication between two entities that are not in sync. Microsoft Message Queue Server (MSMQ) provides the kind of store-and-forward messaging in a pre-built infrastructure that can help you address these kinds of messaging needs. In the past, MSMQ was accessed using a COM wrapper. Now there's a .NET wrapper that lets you accomplish your messaging goals easily from your Framework-based code. To illustrate the use of the wrapp... |

The CultureInfo class is at the heart of .NET's internationalization solution. In Chapter 6, "Globalization", you saw that in the .NET Framework 2.0, the list of available cultures is a combination of those cultures known to the .NET Framework plus those known to the operating system. In the .NET Framework 1.1, the list of available cultures is simply those known only to the .NET Framework. These cultures are fine if the country/language combination that you need is one of the available cultures... |

Data comes in a myriad of forms. Today, virtually anything can be described by data of some kind. In short, data is information and, as we all know, information is power. Any statistic, number, fact, figure, or seemingly unimportant little detail can also be considered data. Data isn't just the bits and bytes that you store in your mammoth data store high in your Ivory Tower, locked away behind an army of IT professionals.... |

A Sample Chapter. The System.Object type offers a virtual method, named Equals, whose purpose is to return true if two objects have the same "value". The .NET Framework Class Library (FCL) includes many methods, such as System.Array’s IndexOf method and System.Collections.ArrayList’s Contains method, that internally call Equals. Because Equals is defined by Object and because every type is ultimately derived from Object, every instance of every type offers the Equals method. For types that don’t... |

Web Services allow access to software components through standard web protocols such as HTTP and SMTP. Using the Internet and XML, we can now create software components that communicate with others, regardless of language, platform, or culture. Until now, software developers have progressed toward this goal by adopting proprietary componentized software methodologies, such as DCOM; however, because each vendor provides its own interface protocol, integration of different vendors' components is a... |

A sample chapter. The Web was first used to deliver static pages of text and pictures. Programming a server to do this was relatively easy—just accept the URL identifying the file, fetch the file that it names from the server’s disk, and write that file back to the client. You can do a lot with just this simple architecture. For example, my local art cinema has a small Web site that I can browse to see what’s playing tonight (for example, Happy, Texas, in which two escaped convicts are mistaken for beauty pageant organizers in a small Texas town), learn about coming attractions, and follow lin..Read More.. |
