Aiming to prove that writing programs for Windows in the Assembly language is no more difficult than writing the same programs using C/C++, this guide shows how Assembly code is actually more compact and executes faster. The algorithmic knowledge and skills lost in high-level programming provides the justification demonstrated in this guide for using Assembly code. Working applications with detailed comments and descriptions of their operating principles, along with material that can be considered hackish, are included. The tools and techniques of code analysis and modification are covered, making this a useful tool for programmers eager to become better acquainted with hacker methods. Not a guide on Assembly language, this represents a symbiosis between the Assembly language and the Windows operating system.

This book describes how software code analysis tools such as IDA Pro are used to disassemble programs written in high-level languages and recognize different elements of disassembled code in order to debug applications in less time. Also described are the basics of Assembly language programming (MASM) and the system and format of commands for the Intel microprocessor. Aspects of disassembling, analyzing, and debugging software code are considered in detail, and an overview of contemporary disassemblers and debuggers used when analyzing executable code is provided. The basics of working with these tools and their operating principles are also included, and emphasis is placed on analyzing software code and identifying the main structure of those languages in which they were written.

Showing database programmers how to take advantage of the features of SQL Server 2005, this guide covers the use of .NET technology, TRY/CATCH construction in the Transact SQL programming language, new triggers, SQL Server Management Studio, and Business Intelligence Development Studio. Programming questions from both the server and the client side are addressed—such as the technologies for client access to SQL Server 2005 and basic access to ODBC data sources—and overviews of configuring, programming, ODBC API, and DAO technology are included. Using the ADO and ADO.NET technologies, integrating SQL Server 2005 into the Internet, and generating HTML pages and XML requests is considered; and an accompanying CD-ROM contains ready-to-use SQL Server 2005 code samples and listings from the book.
