The Complete Reference C# 4.0 - Herbert Schildt

What’s Inside

This book describes C# 4.0. It is divided into two parts. Part I provides a comprehensive discussion of the C# language, including the new features added by version 4.0. This is the largest part in the book, and it describes the keywords, syntax, and features that define the language. I/O, file handling, reflection, and the preprocessor are also discussed in Part I. 

Part II explores the C# class library, which is the .NET Framework class library. This library is huge! Because of space limitations, it is not possible to cover the entire .NET Framework class library in one book. Instead, Part II focuses on the core library, which is contained in the System namespace. Also covered are collections, multithreading, the Task Parallel Library and PLINQ, and networking. These are the parts of the library that nearly every C# programmer will use.

C# Network Programming - Richard Blum

Who Should Read This Book

Obviously, if you are a C# programmer who is interested in creating network programs, this book is specifically intended to help you out. I’ve described each network C# class in detail, and you’ll find lots of examples to help you implement the classes in your own work. If you have never before written a network program, I’ve included useful explanations of the concepts and ideas behind network programming in general, including common techniques for passing data between network devices.

You may already be familiar with writing network programs using other languages, such as C, C⁺⁺, or Java. In that case, you’ll be interested in seeing how easy it is to do this with the C# language.

If you are new to the C# language, the first chapter describes the basics of creating and compiling C# programs. You may want to skip other chapters in the first part of the book, which discuss network programming basics, and dive right into the C#-specific network programming classes.

CSharp 2.0 - Practical Guide For Programmers - Michel de Champlain Deep, Brian G. Patrick

C# 2.0: Practical Guide for Programmers rests its hat on three hooks:

■ Provide a concise yet comprehensive explanation of the basic, advanced, and latest features of the C# language. Each feature is illustrated with short, uncluttered examples. To ensure that code is error-free, the large majority of examples have been automatically and directly extracted from source code that has been verified and successfully compiled.

■ Cover the essentials of the .NET Framework. Modern programming languages like Java and C# are supported by huge application programming interfaces (APIs) or frameworks in order to tackle the flexibility and complexity of today’s applications. Although the focus of this book is on the C# language and not on the .NET Framework, we would be remiss to omit a basic discussion on the core functionalities of the .NET libraries. Any greater depth, however, would far exceed our mandate.

■ Include a refresher on object-oriented concepts. The C# language is fully objectoriented, replete with a unified type system that encapsulates the full spectrum of types, from integers to interfaces. In addition to classes, the concepts of inheritance and polymorphism are given their share of proportional representation as two of the three tenets of object-oriented technology.
