An introduction to Microsoft's unified platform for developing service-oriented applications (SOA) on Windows. This book delivers insight to teach developers what they need to know to build the next generation of SOAs. It focuses on the rationale behind particular design decisions.
'Programming .NET Components', second edition, updated to cover .NET 2.0., introduces the Microsoft .NET Framework for building components on Windows platforms. From its many lessons, tips, and guidelines, readers will learn how to use the .NET Framework to program reusable, maintainable, and robust components.
The .NET Framework is Microsoft's latest platform for developing Windows and web applications. It's also a dramatically new technology for building robust, scalable, and extensible component-based applications. Here, in Programming .NET Components, application developers will at last find the information they need to build .NET component-based solutions. By focusing on .NET components as the fundamental building blocks of .NET applications, author Juval Lowy offers a unique and thoroughly modern approach to .NET programming that will be of particular interest to intermediate .NET programmers and experienced Windows programmers familiar with COM and DCOM. Programming .NET Components is also packed with helpful code examples, tips, design guidelines and original utilities that will simplify and speed up your work. For those committed to component-based development -- and those wondering if they should be -- this is the .NET book to buy and keep by your side.
Romanticism is a worldview that finds expression over a whole range of cultural fields - not only in literature and art but in philosophy, theology, political theory, and social movements. This book formulates a theory that defines romanticism as a cultural protest against modern bourgeois industrial civilization.
Skilled COM developers can leverage their expertise for the next generation of components in Microsoft's .NET framework through COM and .NET Component Services. A key aim of Microsoft's COM+ is to offer proven design solutions for scalable systems. This resource focuses on the added services of COM+, such as transaction support, queued components, events, concurrency management, and security, building on classic COM knowledge. It illustrates that COM+ is a well-designed, user-friendly system tailored for the middle tier, providing a foundation for robust, enterprise-wide, mission-critical distributed applications. Its applications extend beyond the Internet to in-house two-tier systems, client-tier controls, desktop applications, machine control components, and more. This book emphasizes the importance of mastering COM+ services for both .NET and COM component-based applications. Given that many companies have significant investments in existing code and development skills, COM+ offers a migration path. Organizations can initiate or continue projects in COM, utilizing COM+ as a supportive platform, and later transition to .NET by integrating .NET components into the same architecture, allowing for the reuse and interaction of existing COM components.
