Programming C#

C# is designed from the ground up for development on Microsoft's new .NET framework. As such, it's a high-performance language that's simple, safe, object-oriented, and Internet-centric. Programming C# teaches this new language in a way that experienced programmers will appreciate--by grounding its applications firmly in the context of Microsoft's .NET platform and the development of desktop and Internet applications.

The first part of this book introduces C# fundamentals, then goes on to explain:

* Classes and objects
* Inheritance and polymorphism
* Operator overloading
* Structs and interfaces
* Arrays, indexers, and collections
* String objects and regular expressions
* Exceptions and bug handling
* Delegates and events

Part two of Programming C# focuses on development of desktop and Internet applications, including Windows Forms, ADO.NET and ASP.NET. ASP.NET includes Web Forms, for rapid development of web applications, and Web Services for creating objects without user interfaces, to provide services over the Internet.

Part three gets to the heart of the .NET Framework, focusing on attributes and reflection, remoting, threads and synchronization, and streams. Part three also illustrates how to interoperate with COM objects.

In much the way that you can see the features and personality of the parents and grandparents in young children, you can easily see the influence of Java, C++, Visual Basic, and other languages in C#. The level of information in Programming C# allows you to become productive quickly with C# and to rely on it as a powerful addition to your family of mastered programming languages.

C# in a Nutshell

Book Description
C# in a Nutshell provides C# programmers with a concise and thorough reference to the language in one straightforward and accessible volume. Designed as a handbook for daily use, this book is an essential guide to the C# language and the base class APIs of the .NET Framework. Programmers will want to keep this book next to their keyboards for years to come. The heart of the book is a succinct but detailed reference to the C# language and the .NET types most essential to C# programmers. Each chapter in the API reference begins with an overview of a .NET namespace and a diagram of its types, including a quick-reference entry for each type, with name, assembly, category, description, member availability, class hierarchy, and other relevant information, such as whether the type is part o the ECMA CLI specification. Newly updated for .NET Framework version 1.1, the second edition also adds a CD that allows you to integrate the book's API Quick Reference directly into the help files of Visual Studio .NET 2002 & 2003, giving you direct access to this valuable information via your computer. In addition to the API reference section, this book includes:

* An accelerated introduction to the C# language and the .NET Common Language Runtime
* A tutorial section on using C# with the core classes of the .NET Framework Class Library to perform common tasks such as manipulating strings, I/O, and interacting with legacy components
* Comprehensive language and tool reference chapters, including a C# syntax summary, a list of XML documentation tags, and a guide to command-line tools that ship with Visual Studio .NET and the .NET Framework
* Appendixes with reference tables for regular expression syntax, format specifiers, a C# keyword glossary, namespace/assembly cross-reference, and a type and member index for determining in which type a method or field is defined.

Every once in a while, a book becomes the de-facto standard for a technology, operating system, or programming language--which is exactly what C# in a Nutshell has done in a single straightforward and easy to use volume. There is no more complete, up-to-date reference to the C# Language available.

Intel Threading Building Blocks: Outfitting C++ for Multi-core Processor Parallelism

James Reinders, "Intel Threading Building Blocks: Outfitting C++ for Multi-core Processor Parallelism"
O'Reilly Media, Inc. | ISBN: 0596514808 | 332 Pages | PDF | 2.5 MB

Multi-core chips from Intel and AMD offer a dramatic boost in speed and responsiveness, and plenty of opportunities for multiprocessing on ordinary desktop computers. But they also present a challenge: More than ever, multithreading is a requirement for good performance. This guide explains how to maximize the benefits of these processors through a portable C++ library that works on Windows, Linux, Macintosh, and Unix systems. With it, you'll learn how to use Intel Threading Building Blocks (TBB) effectively for parallel programming -- without having to be a threading expert.

Written by James Reinders, Chief Evangelist of Intel Software Products, and based on the experience of Intel's developers and customers, this book explains the key tasks in multithreading and how to accomplish them with TBB in a portable and robust manner. With plenty of examples and full reference material, the book lays out common patterns of uses, reveals the gotchas in TBB, and gives important guidelines for choosing among alternatives in order to get the best performance.

You'll learn how Intel Threading Building Blocks:
Enables you to specify tasks instead of threads for better portability, easier programming, more understandable source code, and better performance and scalability in general
Focuses on the goal of parallelizing computationally intensive work to deliver high-level solutions
Is compatible with other threading packages, and doesn't force you to pick one package for your entire program
Emphasizes scalable, data-parallel programming, which allows program performance to increase as you add processors
Relies on generic programming, which enables you to write the best possible algorithms with the fewest constraints
Any C++ programmer who wants to write an application to run on a multi-core system will benefit from this book. TBB is also very approachable for a C programmer or a C++ programmer without much experience with templates. Best of all, you don't need experience with parallel programming or multi-core processors to use this book.

Nicolai M. Josuttis,«The C++ Standard Library: A Tutorial and Reference»
Addison Wesley | ISBN 0201379260 | 3,30 Mb | 832 Pages | 1999 Year

The C++ Standard Library provides plenty of default functionality in the form of the Standard Template Library (STL) for containers (like vectors and linked lists), as well as generic algorithms (which allow you to sort, search, and manipulate elements inside containers). The best thing about The C++ Standard Library is that it gives the reader a concise guide to working with these basic containers (from lists to sets and maps, with everything in between). Each container type is explained along with short code excerpts. Moreover, in a reference section, the author explores the connections between each container type, showing how they share similar methods. (Learn just a few methods and you can pretty much work with them all.)

C++ for Computer Science and Engineering, 4th Edition

Vic Broquard , «C++ for Computer Science and Engineering, 4th Edition»
Broquard Ebooks | ISBN: 0970569726 | 2007 | 717 pages | PDF | 13.5 Mb

For CS1 and other courses covering beginning programming in C++. It is aimed at readers with little or no programming experience.
It can be used both in Computer Science and Engineering programs as a first course in programming. It is in use at Illinois Central College in the Cmpsc 125 Introduction to C++ and Engr 230 Engineering Applications in C++ courses. The Fourth Edition has been updated to use Microsoft's Visual Studio .NET 2005 compiler

This text is designed for a college level introductory C++ course for both the Computer Science and Engineering curricula. Written for the novice programmer, this book assumes no prior knowledge of computer programming. The main elements of the language are introduced step by step in a logical, gradient manner.

Each chapter has three main sections. The Basics Section presents the new features of the language. This is followed by two applications sections, one geared for Computer Science majors and one for Engineering majors. Thus, the student can see solid examples of the language's application in their field.

Good programming design practices are introduced early and utilized in every sample program in the book. These include Top-down Design, the Cycle of Data Processing (Input, Process, Output) and a form of elementary pseudocoding with a main storage diagram. By continuous examples, the student is shown that the optimum way to write a program is to design before you begin the actual coding into the C++ language.

The book contains 47 complete programs which are available ready for compilation and your experimentation. The sample programs along with a Microsoft Visual C++ .NET 2005 project for each is included with the book. The samples are of increasing sophistication and illustrate many of the basic algorithms needed by the beginning programmer. There are samples for the Basic, Computer Science and Engineering Sections. All sample programs are extensively commented so that they could be easily maintained.

Generally, the Computer Science examples concentrate on the types of programs often found in this discipline and business data processing. They include such items as using input and output files, control break reports, summary reports, merging files of data, file update programs with emphasis on writing reusable, generic functions, sorting arrays, binary search, character string manipulation, use of structures and binary file actions.

In contrast, the Engineering sample programs illustrate problems found in many different areas of engineering and numerical analysis. The basic principles of numerical analysis are presented in Chapter 5 with each chapter after that covering another analysis tool. The sample programs thus illustrate many different types of equation calculations. Covered are root solving (using the bisection method, Regula Falsi, Newton's Method and the secant method), numerical integration using the trapezoid method and Simpson's Rule, menu processing, plotting graphs, statistical computations, Least Squares Curve Fitting, matrix math operations, Gauss and Gauss-Jordan methods for solving equations and the use of structures to simplify parameter passing.

The last section of each chapter consists of programming assignments. They are clearly labeled CS-nn or Engr-nn. There is a wide variety of assignments available. Some are more difficult than others. It is highly recommended that a student do at least one programming assignment from each chapter, if not more.

The book has a lengthy appendix on how to use the Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 Integrated Development Platform to create, debug and run programs.

The book comes in Adobe pdf files. One file contains the entire book. There are also individual chapter pdf files. All of the sample programs are provided as well as the test data needed for some of the programming assignments are provided.

Understanding COM+ by David S. Platt

Developing enterprise applications has traditionally been a long, painful, and expensive task because applications developers often have to reinvent the wheel by writing, from scratch, the entire infrastructure needed to scale business logic up to the enterprise level. That’s where COM+ comes in. It’s an advanced Component Object Model (COM) runtime environment that provides prefabricated solutions to many of these generic infrastructure problems. It’s like a toolkit full of prefabricated solutions that are always available to simplify the work of Microsoft enterprise application developers. UNDERSTANDING COM+, REVISED EDITION elaborates on this story for developers, technical managers, and anyone else who needs to understand the COM+ architecture and technologies. –This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Written for the IS manager or developer, Understanding COM+ explains the details of the emerging Windows 2000 COM+ standard and the real advantages it provides for enterprise computing. Clearly written and illustrated with easy-to-understand diagrams, this title succeeds in explaining the fairly difficult “plumbing” of COM+ and its impact for the future of businesses running on the Microsoft platform.

Though it provides a good deal of technical detail, the standout feature of this book is its focus on real-world business problems in the enterprise and the solutions offered by COM+. Any IS manager or developer will be able to understand concepts like transactions, resource management, events, and asynchronous communications through the author’s carefully rendered diagrams and business scenarios. There’s not much actual code here, but the author does suggest techniques for designing components to take advantage of COM+.

Standout material includes a full discussion of the built-in support for transactions in COM+ and a new feature that has real potential for better performance for today’s Web sites: In-Memory Databases (IMDBs). (With IMDBs, instead of optimizing code, administrators can just add more RAM to the server for a real performance boost.)

As the author notes, COM+ builds on the success of COM on the Microsoft platform. For any IS manager or programmer working on Windows, Understanding COM+ delivers a useful introduction to what’s best in the new COM+ on Windows 2000. –Richard Dragan

Topics covered: Enterprise applications and COM+ overview, COM+ architecture and infrastructure, interception, COM+ components and catalogs, context and transactions, security, threading models and synchronization, resource management, Just-In-Time (JIT) object activation, object pooling, queued components (QC) and asynchronous communications, queue moniker, COM+ events (publishers and subscribers, COM+ In-Memory Databases [IMDBs], and load balancing).

.NET Framework Solutions: In Search of the Lost Win32 API

If you’ve begun programming using Microsoft’s .NET Framework, you’ve discovered a lot of new and improved functionality. But, more than likely, you’ve also discovered a lot of missing functionality. Indeed, a third of the functions supported by the old Win32 API are not yet supported by .NET. Although you may not at first notice the loss of Win32 API functionality in .NET, the more you program, the more you’ll realize how essential it is. As a programmer, you will not want to do without these solutions.

Essential Skills for Agile Development

Agile Development, in particular, eXtreme Programming (XP), has been gaining a lot of momentum because it can effectively address the problems plaguing software development such as mis-understanding customers' requirements, missing deadlines, over-budget, conflicts between customers and developers and poor maintainability of legacy systems.
However, it is so difficult to teach the skills needed to be agile. In 2002, we, the Macau Productivity and Technology Center (CPTTM), started to hold courses on XP and Object Oriented design to teach the skills by hiring a well known software training and consulting company to do the teaching...

We knew that it was because the concepts involved were abstract and it needed far more exercises for the students to practice in the courses. Therefore, we decided to develop our own training materials. In particular, we selected the 20% of the skills in agile development that deliver 80% of the value, ignoring the other useful but non-essential skills. Then we explained those essential skills in terms of examples and added a lot of real world examples as exercises. After adopting this set of materials, the students really acquired the skills taught.

In order to share this with the community, we have organized the training materials into this book: Essential Skills for Agile Development.

The book includes the following chapters: (1) Removing duplicate code. (2) Turning comments into code. (3) Removing code smells. (4) Keeping code fit. (5) Take care to inherit. (6) Handling inappropriate references. (7) Separate database, user interface and domain logic. (8) Managing software projects with user stories. (9) OO design with CRC cards. (10) Acceptance test. (11) How to acceptance test a user interface. (12) Unit test. (13) Test driven development. (14) Team development with CVS. (15) Essential skills for communications. (16) Pair programming.

Distributed Systems Architecture: A Middleware Approach

Distributed Systems Architecture: A Middleware Approach
Morgan Kaufmann | ISBN 1558606483 | 2005-10-10 | PDF | 344 pages | 1.54 MB

Middleware is the bridge that connects distributed applications across different physical locations, with different hardware platforms, network technologies, operating systems, and programming languages. This book describes middleware from two different perspectives: from the viewpoint of the systems programmer and from the viewpoint of the applications programmer. It focuses on the use of open source solutions for creating middleware and the tools for developing distributed applications. The design principles presented are universal and apply to all middleware platforms, including CORBA and Web Services. The authors have created an open-source implementation of CORBA, called MICO, which is freely available on the web. MICO is one of the most successful of all open source projects and is widely used by demanding companies and institutions, and has also been adopted by many in the Linux community.

* Provides a comprehensive look at the architecture and design of middleware—the bridge that connects distributed software applications
* Includes a complete, commercial-quality open source middleware system written in C++
* Describes the theory of the middleware standard CORBA as well as how to implement a design using open source techniques

Building Automated Trading Systems: With an Introduction to Visual C++.NET 2005 (Financial Market Technology)

Building Automated Trading Systems: With an Introduction to Visual C++.NET 2005 (Financial Market Technology)
Academic Press | ISBN0750682515 | 2007-03-07 | PDF | 336 pages | 1.41 MB

Over the next few years, the proprietary trading and hedge fund industries will migrate largely to automated trade selection and execution systems. Indeed, this is already happening. While several finance books provide C++ code for pricing derivatives and performing numerical calculations, none approaches the topic from a system design perspective. This book will be divided into two sectionsprogramming techniques and automated trading system ( ATS ) technologyand teach financial system design and development from the absolute ground up using Microsoft Visual C++.NET 2005. MS Visual C++.NET 2005 has been chosen as the implementation language primarily because most trading firms and large banks have developed and continue to develop their proprietary algorithms in ISO C++ and Visual C++.NET provides the greatest flexibility for incorporating these legacy algorithms into working systems. Furthermore, the .NET Framework and development environment provide the best libraries and tools for rapid development of trading systems.
The first section of the book explains Visual C++.NET 2005 in detail and focuses on the required programming knowledge for automated trading system development, including object oriented design, delegates and events, enumerations, random number generation, timing and timer objects, and data management with STL.NET and .NET collections. Furthermore, since most legacy code and modeling code in the financial markets is done in ISO C++, this book looks in depth at several advanced topics relating to managed/unmanaged/COM memory management and interoperability. Further, this book provides dozens of examples illustrating the use of database connectivity with ADO.NET and an extensive treatment of SQL and FIX and XML/FIXML. Advanced programming topics such as threading, sockets, as well as using C++.NET to connect to Excel are also discussed at length and supported by examples.

C++ Network Programming, Volume 2

Do you need to develop flexible software that can be customized quickly? Do you need to add the power and efficiency of frameworks to your software? The ADAPTIVE Communication Environment (ACE) is an open-source toolkit for building high-performance networked applications and next-generation middleware. ACE's power and flexibility arise from object-oriented frameworks, used to achieve the systematic reuse of networked application software. ACE frameworks handle common network programming tasks and can be customized using C++ language features to produce complete distributed applications.

C++ Network Programming, Volume 2, focuses on ACE frameworks, providing thorough coverage of the concepts, patterns, and usage rules that form their structure. This book is a practical guide to designing object-oriented frameworks and shows developers how to apply frameworks to concurrent networked applications. C++ Networking, Volume 1, introduced ACE and the wrapper facades, which are basic network computing ingredients. Volume 2 explains how frameworks build on wrapper facades to provide higher-level communication services.

C++. Einführung und professionelle Programmierung

C++. Einführung und professionelle Programmierung
Hanser Fachbuchverlag | ISBN 3446410236 | 2007-04 | PDF | 768 pages | 24.31 MB

Auch wenn das Wort "Einführung" im Untertitel vorkommt, so ist C++ auch in der 9., neu bearbeiteten Auflage beileibe kein Einsteigerbuch im Sinne von 'Gehirnchirurgie in 21 Tagen' oder 'Brückenkonstruktion für Dummies'. Ulrich Breymann wendet sich an Studenten und Dozenten der Informatik und Ingenieurwissenschaften sowie Programmierer und Softwareentwickler. Dennoch hat die 9. Auflage einen kleinen neuen Zuspruch an Einsteiger: neue Abschnitte führen Schritt für Schritt durch die Konstruktion des ersten Programms mithilfe einer Open-Source-Entwicklungsumgebung. Ansonsten hat Breymann gekennzeichnete Änderungen hinsichtlich des kommenden C++09-Standards vorgenommen, vor allem in Bereichen, in denen Compiler diese Entwicklung bereits umsetzen.

Breymann beginnt zwar mit einer kurzen, sprachneutralen Einführung in die Objektorientierung und startet auch auf Einsteigerniveau, doch dann kommt er richtig zur Sache. Nach den Grundlagen der C++-Programmierung behandelt er die einfache Ein- und Ausgabe und die Strukturierung von Programmen mittels Funktionen.

Weiter geht es mit einer ersten, C++-spezifischen Einführung in die Ideen und Konzepte der Objektorientierung und anschließend um Zeiger, die zwar noch aus der C-Welt kommen, ihre Bedeutung aber auch unter C++ nicht verloren haben. Hierauf aufbauend folgt dann der zweite Teil der Einführung in die Objektorientierung. Insgesamt legt der Autor viel Wert auf ein fundiertes OO-Verständnis.

C++ In Action

Modern guide to using C++ langugage, including how to apply it to Windows programming. Shows how to write programs for programmers, not computers. The CD-ROM features all of the source code and projects from the text. Also includes a companion Web site. System requirements not listed. Softcover.

I center the presentation around various software projects. In each project I first describe a problem to be solved. Then I discuss what the program should do, what it should look like, and how it should react to user input. Based on that I build a scaffolding that captures the structure of the program without implementing its functionality. Finally, I implement the functionality, component by component.

In programming, as in life, there is never a single way to do something. That’s why being able to argue about various solutions is extremely important. Programmers who don’t know how to argue end up bitter and frustrated. I remember my own frustrations when faced with an argument like, "Because it’s always been done like this." In this book I argue a lot. I try to find the pros and cons of every solution, and in many cases I manage to settle on something I consider "elegant." However, I never use elegance as an objective criterion. I believe that one can always uncover some very practical arguments that are hidden behind the subjective impression of "elegance." An elegant solution in many cases catches a very good abstraction or generalization. It results in code that is easy to understand, modify, and debug.

Finally, in this book I emphasize the human factor in programming. My credo is "programs are written for programmers, not computers." Programmers want to write better programs not in order to make them more understandable to computers, but to make them more readable to humans. Program maintenance is impossible without program understanding. This may seem like an obvious thing to say, but many programmers overlook this self-evident truth.Why You?

Game Programming Gems (Game Programming Gems Series) by Mark DeLoura (Author)
Publisher: Charles River Media; Book & CD edition (August 2000) | ISBN-10: 1584500492 | PDF | 46 Mb (+ 7 Mb - Source code) | 600 pages

Aimed at the working (or aspiring) Visual C/C++ game programmer, Game Programming Gems contains over 60 programming tips that have been gathered from more than 40 working game gurus. It you want to build your own games or are interested simply in how games work, this text provides an intriguing glimpse into how the pros create state-of-the-art 3-D animation. The guiding principle in this book is to publish the best available tips for game programming; most of these fit into 10 pages or fewer. But don't let the efficient presentation fool you; almost every one of these tips will be invaluable to any serious game developer.

Early sections concentrate on techniques for creating more maintainable, faster code. A guide to using scripts for data-driven game modules and techniques teaches you better resource management (like using handles). A quick-start tutorial to the Standard Template Library (STL) will help you learn how to use these fast collection classes in your code right away. Several contributors show off strategies for better game debugging and profiling--there's even a set of classes that can provide onscreen feedback during testing.

The mathematical underpinnings that are required to do leading-edge 3-D graphics processing--including the use of quaternions, instead of matrices, in certain calculations--also are discussed. (One section looks at simulating water surfaces.) And artificial intelligence (AI) techniques for games--like Finite State Machines (FSMs), fuzzy logic, and neural networks--are explained. (The extremely cool flocking algorithms, which will let you add the behavior of birds or fish to your next game level, are especially appealing.)

Over 20 techniques for doing work with polygons (a staple of representing 3-D virtual worlds) are laid out, too. You'll learn a variety of important concepts, such as collision detection, working with key frames, better skinning for character animation, and realistic terrain generation (including fractals). A discussion of pixel effects, with some cutting-edge ways to add more realistic lighting and shadows to your games, closes the discussion. (One of the more exciting sections shows you how to simulate glass objects within 3-D scenes.)

C++ Primer, Fourth Edition

This book is a massive introduction to C++. It has been written with an awareness of modern C++ rather than the older versions that most other books use. It starts using the powerful C++ Library right from the start and does not waste time demanding that you learn older and largely superseded methods that traditional C++ imported from C. Good programming (multi-file, header sentinels, stub functions etc.) are in use from chapter 1. The authors cover object-based and procedural programming as well as pure OOP.

Its target readership is people with some programming background though not necessarily in C. Like all good books for newcomers to C++ you must be willing to work at understanding the authors. They write clearly and have a well-considered approach to introducing the reader to C++ but that does not excuse the reader from doing their bit by thinking about what they read. You may think that is obvious but many people seem to think that you can read a book on programming with the same casual attitude that you apply to reading a novel. Reading books on programming is much more like reading a book on mathematics, you need a paper and pencil or keyboard and text editor readily to hand. You cannot learn to program in the bath. Ideas and insights can come in such an environment but only after you have put in the hard graft.

If you want to learn to program in C++ as it is intended to be used and believe that you have some talent for the subject then this is the best place to start that I have found. Thanks to the authors we have an introductory text that sets a standard for others to aspire to. - ACCU Review

This is the book, which I learned C++ with. I can say that it's one of the best in the market. So I decided to share it with you. I hope you'll enjoy it as I did. - FreeInfo
