About the Book
This book is an unbiased, in-depth
commentary on the efficacy of the various technologies that comprise .NET
as they pertain to Internet database developers. It provides technical
know-how without crushing the student with pointless detail. The authors
discuss the implementation details that replace and extend the existing
Active Server Pages (ASP), XML, and ActiveX Data Object (ADO) functionality
currently supported by Microsoft. Topics covered in this book include:
the .NET Foundation Classes that are most used --ASP.NET, XML, and ADO.NET,
and details about the construction of Web Services and how they programmatically
communicate with each other.
