Professional C# 2008 prepares you to program in C#, and it provides the necessary background information on how the .NET architecture works. It provides examples of applications that use a variety of related technologies, including database access, dynamic web pages, advanced graphics, and directory access. The only requirement is that you are familiar with at least one other high-level language used on Windows - C++, VB, or J++.
It starts with a tutorial on C# 2008. This introduction assumes no prior knowledge of .NET, but it does move rapidly, on the assumption that the reader is an experienced programmer. Once this background knowledge is established, the book starts to sweep through the vast .NET class library, showing how you can use C# to solve various tasks. This comprehensive coverage is one of the key selling points of previous versions of the book, and is maintained and enhanced with this new edition by updating current text, and by adding chapters on WCF (Windows Communication Foundation), WF (Windows Workflow Foundation) and WPF (Windows Presentation Foundation), Arrays, System Transactions, Tracing, and Event Logging. Some reference material is included either as appendices or is available to download from the Wrox website.
After the introduction and initial chapter, the book is divided into a number of sections that cover both the C# language and its application in a variety of areas. Coverage includes:
? WCF Windows Communication Foundation ? WF Windows Workflow Foundation ? WPF Windows Presentation Foundation ? Windows Vista ? Arrays, System. Transactions, Tracing, and Event Logging ?
