Network programming in .NET- C- - Visual Basic .NET Description:
Network programming in .NET: C# & Visual Basic .NET review: 5 stars (Start programming right away with Networking programming in .Net) - The book is very comprehensive and filled with many examples that you can copy within your code and will start working right away. All the examples in the book are explained in detailed and networking concepts are also explained. 4 stars (Great book for Network Programming..) - I'm a newbie to all the Network stuff.
It was very helpful having both VB.NET & C#..
I do program for both...
I would of given 5 stars but I would like to have
the code..No need to type.. 4 stars (Wide Coverage WITHOUT Source Code) - Overall, covers many areas, lacks detailed socket theory, wastes space and no source code.
The book covers a lot of stuff that I hadn't anticipated, which I thought was great. The book goes from Streaming, sockets, numerous internet related protocols, multicasting, telephony and MSMQ.
The book really lacks detailed explanation on Sockets however there are plenty of code examples to learn from. The samples could use more detailed explanation. They are concise and the few I took the time to type in worked fine.
There is no mention of source code being available. I contacted the publisher, Elsevier - Digital Press, and after a 3 day delay said 'the source code is on the inside cover'. No sure what that means I guess I will have to wait another 3 days to find out.
One other dislike was the fact that every code snippet is duplicated in each language. The book is intended for non beginners so there should be no need to waste so much space. The second language should be available in a download.
I gave the 4 only because of the wide coverage and great theory in these other areas. The book will get you writing apps that can talk to each other over IP.
