Network Programming in .NET With C# and Visual Basic .NET PDF Download
This e-book will help you develop network applications with .NET, using
either the C# or VB.NET programming language.
It covers everything you need to know about network programming in
.NET, from basic get-started information, to a huge selection of advanced
networking technologies that may have seemed like science fiction—until
now. Whether you’re looking for a solution to a specific networking issue or
for a general all-round knowledge of network application development,
you’ll find it in this e-book!
Who should read this e-book?
This e-book is aimed at professional developers with some previous programming
experience. Basic knowledge of either C# or VB.NET is an advantage,
but not essential. This is not a beginners guide to .NET, and as such it is
assumed that you already know basic programming constructs such as
if
statements and loops.
No previous experience with network programming is assumed, so even
complete newcomers will find this e-book comprehensive enough cover all
the basics. Seasoned programmers may skip the first chapter, and readers
will quickly find the pace fast enough to keep even the most expert developers
glued to the pages.
Although the e-book is geared for developers, as a solution architect, IT
manager, or even computer science undergraduate, you will also find this
e-book of enormous benefit. Every new concept is introduced with its associated
technology theory and commercial implications for IT businesses. This
e-book keeps a keen eye on best practice techniques, as well as provides
ground-up implementations. Using this approach, project managers can help guide developers towards an implementation that could provide future
flexibility or lead to faster end-product deployment.
What hardware and software do you need?
In order to use the code examples provided in this e-book, you should install
the latest version of the .NET framework from Microsoft’s Web site. It is
also highly recommended that you install Visual Studio .NET, rather than
use the command-line based compilers supplied with the .NET SDK.
The minimum hardware requirements for Visual Studio .NET are:
Intel Pentium processor; 450 MHz or equivalent
Microsoft Windows 2000, NT 4.0, or XP
128 Mb RAM
3 Gb of available disk space
The telephony examples in chapter 14 require the use of a voice modem
and access to a live analog phone line.
How this e-book is organized
The e-book is divided into three main parts. The following sections will
describe what is covered in each part of the e-book.
Part I: Basic network applications
Chapters 1 to 6 cover the established Internet technologies. These include
the main activities that we all carry out in our daily lives, everything from
browsing the Web, sending e-mail, and maybe uploading files with FTP.
Knowing how to implement these basic networking operations from .NET
is a must for any serious developer. Ever wanted to link to your company
Web site from your application or to send an e-mail whenever the program
crashes? These chapters show you how.
Part II: Network application design
Chapters 7 to 11 discuss network application design. These chapters are
aimed at enterprise-scale development of heavy-duty distributed applications. Provided are five chapters on hardware, encryption, authentication,
scalability, and performance. Encryption and authentication provide you
with the confidence to know that nobody can defraud your system or compromise
the confidentiality of the information held within it. Scalability
ensures that you can keep your service working at full tilt even under
extreme loads. With an excellent chapter on performance enhancing techniques,
after reading this section you can be sure that no customer turns
away because they were ”bored waiting.” All together this handful of pages
equates to a huge step forward in application quality.
Part III: Specialized networking topics
Chapters 12 to 17 are geared toward the more specialized networking topics
and the more advanced developer with a keen interest in niche or cuttingedge
technologies. Each chapter in this section is the result of months of
research, brought to you in simple step-by-step examples. This section
includes possibly the first published implementation of frame-level packet
capture in .NET, as well as a cool telephony application built from scratch
in .NET.
These chapters also cover MSMQ, IPv6, WMI, DNS, Ping, WHOIS,
Telnet, ARP, RIP, OSPF, BGP/EGP, SNMP, PPP, Web services, remoting,
and more!
