This book is a practical guide to the essential features and functions of the Windows API. Unlike most resources, it focuses on the core system services - file systems, memory, threads, synchronization, processes, communication, and security - rather than the more commonly featured graphical user interface (GUI) functions. While the .NET Framework has gotten most of the excitement the last few years, there are still many developers whose main responsibility is developing and maintaining Windows systems apps. Numerous practical, well-tested application programs-- suitable for both personal and server systems-- are included along with performance measurements on a wide variety of single and multiprocessor systems. In addition to WinXP and Win2003, this book teaches how to use the .NET framework to program the Windows System and develop applications. This completely updated edition also introduces the use of open source software. ISBN-9788131707579
