Book Description: XML is now an established technology for the description and transportation of data, and has made a major impact on almost every aspect of software development. When Microsoft introduced the .NET Framework, they took advantage of XML wherever they could. No other technology is so tightly bound with .NET as XML, both at the developer level and underlying the whole framework.

This book aims to give the reader enough information to be able to use XML from within the .NET Framework in the most efficient manner possible. It will explain in detail the usage of all the XML-related .NET Framework library classes for the manipulation, validation, transformation, and serialization of XML data, using both C# and Visual Basic .NET. It also looks at how the developer can utilize the full power of XML within the .NET Framework, for example, with the new XML capabilities of ADO.NET and ASP.NET. As is demonstrated, the .NET Framework itself uses XML, in configuration files, meta data, and C#'s XML code documentation mechanism, for example.

This book is aimed at intermediate-level programmers who have started on their journey towards .NET development, and who want to see how to use XML within their applications to its best advantage. Basic knowledge of C# or Visual Basic .NET, XML, and XML related technologies (XSLT, XPath, and XML Schemas) is necessary.

Professional XML for .NET Developers covers:
• Reading and writing XML
• DOM navigation and XSL transformations of XML
• Validating and serializing XML
• MSXML vs System.Xml
• ADO.NET and ASP.NET XML support
• Web Services and SOAP
• Remoting
• XML code documentation

From the Publisher: This book is aimed at intermediate or experienced programmers who have started on their journey towards .NET development, and who want to see how to use XML within their applications to its best advantage. Basic knowledge of XML and related technology (XSLT, XPath, and XML Schemas) is assumed.


Customer Reviews:
Reviewer: Mr David W Schultz from Sterling Heights, MI United States
I helped in the review of this title and can honestly say this title had a lot of thought put into creating a book that can actually be used in the real world. XML is very popular now and being used all over. .Net has just been released by MS. This book will show you how to put the two togethor to create real world efficient applications. The reader is assumed to have knowledge of .Net and XML, this is not a intro level book. The book shows how to combine .Net with XML and then reinforces it with several case studies of full applications using the techniques learned throughout the book. This one is a keeper for my book rack.

Reviewer: Bill Burris from Edmonton, Alberta Canada
A professional quality book. Excellent coverage of all aspects of using XML in .NET. It dosn't waste any space on introductory material, and assumes you already know how to work with .NET, C# or VB.NET, and XML. Most examples are given in both C# and VB.NET. Works for me, although I would prefer just C# listings.

Reviewer: Paul Peterson from San Jose, CA. USA
