C# in Depth: What you need to master C# 2 and 3 (Paperback)
C# in Depth is a completely new book designed to propel existing C#
developers to a higher level of programming skill. One simple principle
drives this book: explore a few things deeply rather than offer a
shallow view of the whole C# landscape. If you often find yourself
wanting just a little more at the end of a typical chapter, this is the
book for you. Expert author Jon Skeet dives into the C# language,
plumbing new C# 2 and 3 features and probing the core C# language
concepts that drive them. This unique book puts the new features into
context of how C# has evolved without a lengthy rehearsal of the full C#
language. C# in Depth briefly examines the history of C# and the .NET
framework and reviews a few often-misunderstood C# 1 concepts that are
very important as the foundation for fully exploiting C# 2 and 3.
Because the book addresses C# 1 with a light touch, existing C#
developers don't need to pick through the book in order to find new
material to enhance their skills. This book focuses on the C# 2 and 3
versions of the language, but clearly explains where features are
supported by changes in the runtime (CLR) or use new framework classes.
Each feature gets a thorough explanation, along with a look on how you'd
use it in real life applications. C# in Depth is both a vehicle for
learning C# 2 and 3 and a reference work. Although the coverage is
in-depth, the text is always accessible: You'll explore pitfalls that
can trip you up, but you'll skip over gnarly details best left to the
language specification. The overall effect is that readers become not
just proficient in C# 2 and 3, but comfortable that they truly
understand the language.

100 Things You Need to Know about Microsoft Windows Vista
Tired of clawing your way through computer books that start at the
beginning of recorded history just to find one tiny nugget of
information you need? Tired of wrenching your back to pull that massive
Windows tome off your bookshelf? Tired of wishing you could find a
simple answer to what should be a simple problem? If you answered yes to
any of these questions, then 100 Things You Need to Know about
Microsoft(r) Windows Vista™ is just the book you’ve been looking for.
Chock full of timesaving tips, heady solutions, and expert know-how,
this book doesn’t break the bank nor does it require a Bowflex body to
hoist it around. Inside you’ll find step-by-step help for the 100 things
every Windows user needs to know when making the big switch between
Windows XP and Vista. Even if you’re brand new to Windows (meaning Vista
is your first-ever operating system), you’ll find the advice here
indispensable. In this book, we assume, for instance, that you really
don’t give a hoot about what TCP/IP is. We’re betting you just want to
get your Internet connection up and running, and leave the techy muck to
the propeller heads.
• Want all the cool new cutting-edge features and interface Windows
Vista offers? Well, before you run out and buy the software, you need to
ensure your system will support it! We walk you through, step-by-step,
how to manually check if your PC and other hardware and software are
supported for use with Windows Vista. We show you how to perform common
upgrade tasks, if needed, before you install Vista. In addition, we
provide tips and procedures on backing up your data.
• Having to choose between five different versions (yes, Vista comes
in FIVE flavors!) can be confusing! Don’t sweat it, though--we’ve got
you covered. We show you how to decide which flavor of Vista is best
suited to you! Then we walk you through installing and setting up Vista
for the very first time.
• Next we dig into the new Vista interface, which is quite a change
from the old XP! Then we give you a tour of the many new and enhanced
features. While you might fancy yourself a wicked-smart Windows user,
don’t skip this section! We’re positive you’ll find things you didn’t
know that will help you make Vista do thy bidding.
• Don’t like the slick new Vista interface? (Macintosh, anyone?) We
show you how to harness the power of Vista while keeping the look and
feel of your XP. Who says change has to be painful?
• After you have the basics nailed, we then show you some of the cool
things you can do with Vista, from customizing its performance, to
disabling annoying security controls, to connecting to a wireless
network.

calendar, Web bookmarks, buddy list, desktop pictures, and MP3 files.
Re-creating your software suite -- Big-name programs (Word, Photoshop,
Firefox, Dreamweaver, and so on) are available in both Mac and Windows
versions, but hundreds of other programs are available only for Windows.
This guide identifies the Mac equivalents and explains how to move your
data to them. Learning Leopard -- Once you've moved into the Mac, a
final task awaits: Learning your way around. Fortunately, you're in good
hands with the author of Mac OS X: The Missing Manual, the #1

Beginning VB 2008: From Novice to Professional
This book is for anyone who wants to write good Visual Basic 2008 code – even if you have never programmed before.
Writing good code can be a challenge, there are so many options, especially in a language like Visual Basic. If you want to really get the best from a programming language you need to know which features work best in which situations and understand their strengths and weaknesses. It is this understanding that makes the difference between coding and coding well.
Beginning VB 2008 has been written to teach you how to use the Visual Basic programming language to solve problems. From the earliest chapters, and from the first introductory concepts, you'll be looking at real-world programming challenges and learning how Visual Basic can be used to overcome them. As you progress through the book the problems become more involved and interesting while the solutions become correspondingly more complex and powerful as Visual Basic features interact to achieve the results that you want.
By the time you've finished reading this book and worked through the sample exercises, you'll be a confident and very competent Visual Basic programmer.

Practical DWR 2 Projects (Expert's Voice in Java) (Paperback)
The Ajax craze is sweeping the world, and there is no shortage of libraries from
which to choose to make it all easier to develop. One of those libraries has
risen near the top in the Java space, and that library is DWR. DWR, or Direct Web
Remoting, allows you to treat your Java classes running on the server as if they
were local objects running in the browser, bringing the full power of your server
–side business logic to the client without the usual problems that entails.
In this book:
* You’ll explore DWR and all it offers.
* You’ll find six full, working applications
that use DWR, instead of a lot of theoretical musings.
* You’ll learn by example, more importantly, by doing,
as you tear the applications apart, see what makes
them tick, and even extend them at your own pace.
In the end, you’ll have a great feel for what DWR offers and how Ajax can bring the
world of Web 2.0 to your doorstep, and you’ll have a good time doing it.
What you’ll learn:
* Call a server–side object in a snap and make it look like any
local JavaScript call to boot.
* Provide a strong security mechanism for securing your server-side code.
* Integrate with many of the most popular frameworks out there.
* Provide not only Ajax but Comet capabilities (sometimes called reverse Ajax).
* Dig into Ajax using DWR in a practical and hacking kind of way starting
with a webmail client and Wiki projects.
* Build a simple file manager application and an online timesheet system.
* Complete a DWR–based game project.
Who is this book for?
Web application developers, senior projects leads, and application architects

Service-Oriented Java Business Integration (Paperback)
The book concentrates on leveraging Java Business Integration (JBI) for addressing real world
integration problems with examples. Business level integration in Java needs to address
integrating multiple flavors of business components including POJO, EJB, Web Services, JMS,
etc. The book will explain all the above scenarios, using open source Apache ServiceMix as the
ESB framework.
In Detail:
The book first discusses the various integration approaches available and introduces Enterprise
Service Bus (ESB), which is a new Architectural pattern which can facilitate integrating services.
ESB provides different forms of mediation services including routing and transformation. Java
Business Integration (JBI) provides a collaboration framework which provides standard interfaces
for integration components and protocols to plug into, thus allowing the assembly of Service
Oriented Integration (SOI) frameworks following the ESB pattern. JBI is based on JSR 208, which
is an extension of Java 2 Enterprise Edition (J2EE). Once JBI and ESB are introduced, we look at
how we have been doing service integration without either of the above using traditional J2EE.
The book then slowly introduces ESB and showcases with the help of code, how easily things can
be done using JBI.
* Assemble services and port it across containers using JBI
* Expose EJB as WSDL compliant service across firewalls
* Bind remote services onto the ESB to be consumed internally
* Expose local components in ESB like POJO as WSDL compliant services
to be accessible externally.
* Provide a web service gateway for external consumers
* Access web services over reliable transport channel like JMS
* Implement web service versioning using ESB
* Implement service aggregation at ESB
* Transactions, Security, Clustering & JMS in ESB.
Who this book is written for?
This book is aimed at Java developers and integration architects aiming to become proficient with
Java Business Integration (JBI) standard, who are expected to have some experience with Java and
to have developed and deployed applications in the past, but need no previous knowledge of JBI.
The book can also be useful to anyone, who has been having a hard time understanding ESB and how
it differs from other architectures and to understand its position in SOA.

Programming Amazon Web Services: S3, EC2, SQS, FPS, and SimpleDB
Building on the success of its storefront and fulfillment services,
Amazon now allows businesses to "rent" computing power, data storage and
bandwidth on its vast network platform. This book demonstrates how
developers working with small- to mid-sized companies can take advantage
of Amazon Web Services (AWS) such as the Simple Storage Service (S3),
Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2), Simple Queue Service (SQS), Flexible
Payments Service (FPS), and SimpleDB to build web-scale business
applications. With AWS, Amazon offers a new paradigm for IT
infrastructure: use what you need, as you need it, and pay as you go.
Programming Web Services explains how you can access Amazon's open APIs
to store and run applications, rather than spend precious time and
resources building your own. With this book, you'll learn all the
technical details you need to:
- Store and retrieve any amount of data using application servers,
unlimited data storage, and bandwidth with the Amazon S3 service
- Buy computing time using Amazon EC2's interface to requisition
machines, load them with an application environment, manage access
permissions, and run your image using as many or few systems as needed
- Use Amazon's web-scale messaging infrastructure to store messages as
they travel between computers with Amazon SQS
- Leverage the Amazon FPS service to structure payment instructions
and allow the movement of money between any two entities, humans or
computers
- Create and store multiple data sets, query your data easily, and
return the results using Amazon SimpleDB.
- Scale up or down at a moment's notice, using these services to
employ as much time and space as you need Whether you're starting a new
online business, need to ramp up existing services, or require an
offsite backup for your home, Programming Web Services gives you the
background and the practical knowledge you need to start using AWS.
Other books explain how to build web services. This book teaches
businesses how to take make use of existing services from an established
technology leader.
