PC developers are being called on to develop ever more complex systems, and in response the established tools for program design are now available on PC. "Clouds" is the colloquial name for the object diagrams that are central to UML. This book is a complete walk-through of the transition from design to development for programmers. .

The Windows Script Host (WSH) is Microsoft's response to the need for a way of programming Windows in a manner analogous to the way batch files can be used to automate jobs in MS-DOS. Rather as Office 2000 provides VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) as a development tool, Windows 98 and Windows 2000 contain the Windows Script Host. 
 WSH enables you to use scripting languages - VBScript and JScript are available by default - to access the Windows shell directly. As well as providing facilities of its own for tasks including shortcut management and registry manipulation, WSH enables the use of any Automation-compatible COM object. In other words, a script can be created with a simple text editor like Notepad, and used to control any process for which an object model exists.

This book covers middle-tier programming with PHP. PHP is a server-side, HTML-embedded scripting language. It is an open source technology, rapidly gaining popularity as a scripting language for people running dynamic websites. One of its major attractions over Perl, JavaScript and other scripting languages is that PHP has a built-in database integration layer and seamless IP connectivity, with LDAP and TCP as well as the IMAP mail interface. Features; Real world, practical experience and techniques From installation and configuration of the PHP engine to advanced dynamic application design Definitive coverage of core PHP language and database addressing: MySQL is covered in depth. Practical e-commerce and business scripting including database application development, together with PHP and XML applications. LDAP connectivity addressed.

J2ME is an exciting set of technologies that provide integration of Java with wireless devices, and bring Java back to its design roots. Wireless device types, operating systems, and networks will proliferate, but Java provides a unifying programming platform for these devices. 
 The potential of a flexible and secure run-time environment on these new devices is immense. Mobile code, context or location-sensitive web-based services, and inter-device communication are all possible between differing devices. 
 The recognition that 'one size doesn't fit all', however, and the resulting introduction of configurations and profiles, is confusing. Java is still 'write once, test everywhere,' in developers' minds. This book answers in one volume the need for a detailed examination of the differences and similarities between implementations of J2ME. 
 Currently, deployable context based services are only possible through WAP. The book covers this exciting new area of providing location-based services.

We are in the Application Server generation. Each generation of software has leveraged the newest in hardware technology has driven hardware and operating systems in particular directions. The WebSphere Application Server from IBM, with its rich function set, industry leading performance and scalability, as well as configuration flexibility is one of the leading products in of application server generation. 
For the experienced J2EE developer, this book details how to develop, deploy and manage enterprise applications for version 5.0 of IBM's WebSphere Application Server. Over the course of the book a large-scale e-commerce application is developed that demonstrates the use of WebSphere Application Developer Studio for the creation of J2EE applications, as well as functionality of the application server, including Web Services, Application Profiling, Enterprise Workflows and Business Rules Beans. The book also addresses such issues as enterprise security, deployment topology and server administration.

XML is established as the universal standard for delivering documents and data on the Web. The next step is to process that data and the XSL Transformation language, XSLT, has been developed as the primary means for such processing. XSLT can be used to convert XML data for presentational purposes as well as to modify data structure.

Since the announcement of Visual Basic .NET, a lot has been made of its powerful new object-oriented features. However, very little discussion has been devoted to the practice of object-oriented programming at its most fundamental level - that is, building classes. The truth is, whatever code you write in Visual Basic .NET, you are writing classes that fall within the class hierarchy of the .NET Framework. Visual Basic .NET Class Design Handbook was conceived as a guide to help you design these classes effectively, by looking at what control we have over our classes, and how Visual Basic .NET turns our class definitions into executable code. 
Ask anyone: designing effective classes that you do not have to revisit and revise over and over again is an art. This Handbook, the first in the series, aims to give you a deep and thorough understanding of the implications of all the decisions you can make in designing a class, so you are equipped to develop classes that are robust, flexible and reusable. 
Chapter 1: Defining Types, investigates the role of Types in .NET and the different kinds of Types available to you. Chapter 2: Type Members, explains how Visual Basic .NET defines type members. Chapter 3: Methods, explores the fundamental role of methods as containers of program logic. Chapter 4: Constructors and the Object Lifecycle, introduces the role of Constructors and their effective use in addition to Object cleanup and disposal. Chapter 5: Properties, explains when and how to use properties and indexers to encapsulate data. Chapter 6: Events and Delegates, introduces the .NET events system and how it works. Chapter 7: Inheritance and Polymorphism, investigates how to control and exploit inheritance in our Types. Chapter 8: Code Organisation and Metadata, explains how to logically and physically organise code through namespaces and assemblies

Networking is one of the core tasks of enterprise-level programming, and for the programmer familiar with the C# language this book will provide the information to put network programming at the heart of their .NET applications. Prior knowledge of network programming is not assumed, but the reader already familiar with networking from another environment will find the pace quick enough for the book to still prove valuable.  This book will give the reader:  An understanding of the general concepts of networking Information about network programming in .NET with C# Skills to build network-based applications in .NET The confidence to use the classes shipped with .NET to implement your own application-level protocols.  After reading this book, readers will be confident C# network programmers, and understand the underlying protocols.  We begin with an overview of the most important background material, such as the architecture of physical networks, network protocols, the OSI model, streams in .NET, and the classes provided to facilitate access to streams such as StreamReader and StreamWriter.  Then we move onto sockets programming, with an introduction to the concept of sockets, and full coverage of using sockets in .NET. We look at TCP, UDP, and using multicast sockets in .NET. We also look briefly at application-level protocols built on top of these layers, such as SMTP and FTP.  The next stop is Internet programming, with a look at HTTP, the underlying protocol of the Internet, and e-mail protocols – we look at the .NET classes for sending e-mails via SMTP, and we see how we can implement POP3 and NNTP clients in .NET to read mailboxes and newsgroups.  The book finishes with an exploration of how to secure network communications in .NET – encrypting network traffic, certificates and SSL, authenticating and authorizing users with NTLM and Kerberos.  All the code examples in this book are in C#.
