Preface

A condensed introduction to the Microsoft .NET Framework, this book
aims to help programmers make the transition from traditional Windows
programming to the world of .NET programming. The Microsoft .NET
Framework includes the Common Language Runtime (CLR) and a set of
base classes that radically simplify the development of large-scale
applications and services. This book examines the CLR in detail, so
that you can put its new features to good use. The book also
illustrates how language integration really works and guides you
through component and enterprise development using the .NET
Framework. In addition, it introduces you to four key .NET
technologies: data (ADO.NET) and XML, web services, Web Forms
(ASP.NET), and Windows Forms.

We used the latest release of Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003 and
the .NET Framework SDK 1.1 to prepare this manuscript and to develop
all the examples and figures in this book. In .NET Framework SDK 1.1,
Microsoft has fixed a number of bugs, made performance and security
improvements, and added a few important changes, including:

Support for additional ADO.NET data sources (Oracle and ODBC)

Improved support for using C++ to build .NET Windows and Web
applications

Integration of J# into VS.NET

Inclusion of a mobile controls package for developing ASP.NET sites
for small devices, such as cell phones

Integration of mobile application development into VS.NET
