Beginning XML

by Kurt Cagle and etc.

Published 1 June 2000
What is this book about? Extensible Markup Language (XML) is a rapidly maturing technology with powerful real-world applications, particularly for the management, display, and organization of data. Together with its many related technologies it is an essential technology for anyone using markup languages on the web or internally. This book teaches you all you need to know about XML what it is, how it works, what technologies surround it, and how it can best be used in a variety of situations, from simple data transfer to using XML in your web pages. It builds on the strengths of the first edition, and provides new material to reflect the changes in the XML landscape notably SOAP and Web Services, and the publication of the XML Schemas Recommendation by the W3C. What does this book cover? Here are just a few of the things this book covers: * XML syntax and writing well-formed XML * Using XML Namespaces * Transforming XML into other formats with XSLT * XPath and XPointer for locating specific XML data * XML Validation using DTDs and XML Schemas * Manipulating XML documents with the DOM and SAX 2.0
* SOAP and Web Services * Displaying XML using CSS and XSL * Incorporating XML into tradition databases and n-tier architectures * XLink and XPointer for linking XML and non-XML resources Who is this book for? Beginning XML, 2nd Edition is for any developer who is interested in learning to use XML in web, e-commerce or data-storage applications. Some knowledge of mark up, scripting, and/or object oriented programming languages is advantageous, but not essential, as the basis of these techniques are explained as required.

Now you can uncover the secrets behind accessing and retrieving data from a wide range of data sources such as SQL Server and XML sources. This book walks you through the array of ADO.NET 2.0 features and clearly shows you how they can be used to develop database-driven web applications in ASP.NET. You'll first gain an in-depth understanding of the data source controls that enable data binding in the ASP.NET platform. Next you'll uncover the advanced features of ASP.NET, including site navigation, implementing sorting and paging, and editing data in templates. You'll then focus on designing transactions in ADO.NET 2.0, displaying data, and utilizing SQL Server 2005 XML. Throughout the chapters, you'll find examples and source code (with ASP.NET examples written in C#) that you can integrate into your applications. This will enable you to leverage ADO.NET and ASP.NET features so you can easily create a scalable N-Tier web site. Some of the topics covered include:* ASP.NET 2.0
Data Controls* Data Binding with the SqlDataSource Control, XML Data, and Objects* Selecting, Updating, Deleting Records* Programmatically Creating and Adding Controls* XSL Transformations with XmlDataSource Control* Using Generics with the ObjectDataSource Control* ASP.NET 2.0 Site Navigation including Implementing Breadcrumbs and Binding to Other Controls* Displaying and Editing Data Using Templates* GridView Sorting and Paging* Advanced Data Source and Data-Bound Controls including Master/Detail Display, Displaying Images from a Database, and Using Themes with Data Bound Controls* Transactions in .NET and Interoperability between System.Transactions and System.EnterpriseServices* Advanced ADO.NET for ASP.NET Data Display including DataSet Object, ADO.NET 2.0 DataTable, and Provider-Independent Data Access Code* Accessing Data from SQL Server 2005 including CLR in SQL Server 2005, New XML Features in SQL Server 2005, and Working with XML Data-Typed Columns from ADO.NET* N-Tier Architecture with ASP.NET 2.0 and SQL Server 2005* Best Practices for Creating ASP.NET Web Sites including Implementation of CLR Stored Procedures and Implementation of Layers

Cover of Professional VB.NET
What is this book about?

.NET is designed to provide a new environment within which you can develop almost any application to run on Windows (and possibly in the future on other platforms). Visual Basic .NET (VB.NET) is likely to be a very popular development tool for use with this framework. VB.NET is a .NET compliant language and, as such, has (except for legacy reasons) almost identical technical functionality as the new C# language and Managed Extensions for C++. Using VB.NET, you can develop a dynamic Web page, a component of a distributed application, a database access component, or a classic Windows desktop application.

In order to incorporate Visual Basic into the .NET Framework, a number of new features have been added to it. In fact, the changes are so extensive that VB.NET should be viewed as a new language rather than simply as Visual Basic 7. However, these changes were necessary to give developers the features that they have been asking for: true object orientated programming, easier deployment, better interoperability, and a cohesive environment in which to develop applications.

What does this book cover?

In this book, we cover VB.NET virtually from start to finish: We begin by looking at the .NET Framework, and end by looking at best practices for deploying .NET applications. In between, we look at everything from database access to integration with other technologies such as XML, along with investigating the new features in detail. You will see that VB.NET has emerged as a powerful yet easy to use language that will allow you to target the Internet just as easily as the desktop.

This book explains the underlying philosophy and design of the .NET Framework and Common Language Runtime (CLR) and explains the differences between Visual Basic 6 and Visual Basic .NET.

You will learn how to

Develop applications and components using Visual Studio .NETEffectively apply inheritance and interfaces when designing objects and componentsOrganize your code using namespacesHandle errors using the Try...Catch...Finally structureAccess data using ADO.NET and bind controls to the underlying data sourcesCreate Windows applications and custom Windows controlsInteroperate with COM and ActiveX componentsCreate transactional and queuing componentsUse .NET Remoting to send serialized objects between clients and serversCreate Windows ServicesUse VB.NET to access information on the WebCreate and consume Web ServicesSecure your applications and code using the tools provided in the .NET Framework SDKArrange your applications and libraries in assemblies and deploy them using Visual Studio .NET

Who is this book for?

This book is aimed at experienced Visual Basic developers who want to make the transition to VB.NET.

What do you need to use this book?

Although it is possible to create VB.NET applications using the command lines tools contained in the .NET Framework SDK, you will need Visual Studio .NET (Professional or higher), which includes the .NET Framework SDK, to use this book to the full.

Here are some additional notes on what you may need:

Some chapters make use of SQL Server 2000. However, you can also run the example code using MSDE (Microsoft Data Engine), which ships with Visual Studio .NET.Several chapters make use of Internet Information Services (IIS). IIS ships with Windows 2000 Server, Windows 2000 Professional, and Windows XP, although it is not installed by default.Chapter 18 makes use of MSMQ to work with queued transactions. MSMQ ships with Windows 2000 Server, Windows 2000 Professional, and Windows XP, although it is not installed by default.
