Peer to Peer with VB.NET (with source code )

This text takes a look at peer-to-peer programming with VB .NET, and provides complete examples demonstrating instant messaging, file sharing, and how distributed computing and peer-to-peer work together.

Peer-to-peer proponents claim that their technology holds the keys to building virtual supercomputers, sharing vast pools of knowledge, and creating self-sufficient communities on the Internet. Peer-to-Peer with VB .NET explores how these design ideas can be integrated into existing .NET applications.

This book is an honest assessment of P2P and .NET. It doesn’t just explain how to create P2P applications—it examines the tradeoffs that professional developers will encounter with .NET and P2P. It also considers several different approaches (Remoting, .NET networking, etc.) rather than adopting one fixed technology, and includes detailed examples of several popular P2P application types (messenger, file sharer, and distributed task manager).

Like all new development models, peer-to-peer programming has been praised, denounced, and often confused in the programming community. Peer-to-peer proponents claim that their technology holds the key to building virtual supercomputers that can share vast pools of knowledge and create self-sufficient communities on the Internet. Peer-to-peer critics claim it's little more than an interesting novelty—suitable for some applications, but useless in the business world.

This book takes a practical look at peer-to-peer programming, without the hype. You'll explore how peer-to-peer designs work, learn fundamental peer-to-peer concepts, and master the .NET technologies you'll need to implement them. You'll also see that while some aspects of .NET are ideally suited for the peer-to-peer world, other high-level features haven't materialized yet. The emphasis in this book is on integrating peer-to-peer designs into your applications. This means that you'll focus on "hybrid" peer-to-peer designs that combine traditional solutions and peer-to-peer concepts to create new features such as instant messaging, resource sharing, and distributed computing.

Windows Forms Programming In VB.NET

Windows Forms Programming in Visual Basic .NET is the ultimate guide to using the MS .NET forms package. Readers will learn how to build applications that take full advantage of both the rich user interface features of the MS Windows operating system and the deployment features traditionally associated with HTML-based applications.

Authors Chris Sells and Justin Gehtland draw upon their WinForms research and programming experience to go beyond the Windows Forms documentation to give you a clear picture of exactly how Visual Basic .NET programmers can use WinForms. Readers will gain an understanding of the rationale behind aspects of WinForms design and learn how to avoid or solve common problems. Throughout the book, detailed illustrations of WinForms user interface features and working code samples demonstrate best practices. All code has been tested with Visual Studio .NET 1.1 and is available at www.sellsbrothers.com, where readers will also find updates to the book.

When writing this book, we had two target audiences in mind. We wanted to provide real-world WinForms coverage for both the programmer who has already programmed in .NET and for the programmer who hasn't. Toward that end, we briefly introduce core .NET topics as they come up. However, the .NET Framework itself is a large area that this book doesn't pretend to cover completely. Instead, when we think more information would be useful, we reference another work that provides the full details. In particular, we find that we've referenced Essential .NET, by Don Box, with Chris Sells, a great deal, making it a good companion to this book. In this same category, we also recommend Pragmatic ADO.NET, by Shawn Wildermuth, Advanced .NET Remoting, by Ingo Rammer, .NET Web Services, by Keith Ballinger, and Applied MS .NET Framework Programming, by Jeffrey Richter.

Learn VB .NET Through Game Programming (with source code)

Author(s) : Matthew Tagliaferri
Publisher : Apress
ISBN 10 : 1590591143
ISBN 13 : 9781590591147
Language : English

Size : 11 MB (book + source code)

Many young programmers are interested in game programming. Learn VB .NET Through Game Programming is a self-paced learning tutorial designed to help any developer master the basics of object-oriented programming (OOP) with Microsoft Visual Basic .NET. Unlike other books on OOP, this easy-to-understand book provides readers with peer-level language, while illustrating concepts with definitive and intuitive game programming examples.

The goal of this book is to teach you how to get started programming in Visual Basic .NET by developing games. This book doesn’t intend to be a complete treatise of all the features and capabilities of this latest version of VB. Instead, it provides a series of example programs that illustrate basic features of the language and begins the huge task of introducing you to the contents of the .NET Framework. In addition, I introduce one more important programming concept—the concept of design. Now that object-oriented languages are more common, people have found that the various objects in a program can be designed to interact with each other in different ways; these interactions can make the program more or less complex or more or less adaptable to future features or enhancements.

To illustrate the importance of design on a program, I’ve taken the time to walk you through the development process of several of these programs rather than simply presenting you with the final version of the game. By learning how to solve a program one way, then improving upon that design in a second or third version of the program, you’ll begin to recognize when your own designs might be headed down a wrong path and some redesign is in order.

This book assumes you’ve had at least some experience in software development before diving into the first chapter and that you now want to learn Visual Basic .NET. Perhaps you’re a VB 6 programmer, for example, in which case this book will help describe the syntactical differences between the languages, as well as introduce you to the .NET Framework classes that will be new to you. Perhaps you’re experienced in an older technology such as mainframe programming and are looking to update your skill set to something more modern. Whatever the case, my assumption is that as you crack open Chapter 1, “Developing Your First Game,” you’ve written programs in some other language so that you have a jumping-off point.

.NET Common Language Runtime Unleashed 2-volume set (Paperback)

The .NET Framework provides a runtime environment called the Common Language Runtime, which manages the execution of code and provides services that make the development of robust software easier. The Common Language Runtime (CLR) provides a solid foundation for developers to build various types of applications. Whether a developer is writing an ASP.NET application, a Windows Forms application, a Web Service, a mobile code application, a distributed application, or an application that combines several of these application models, the CLR provides huge benefits such as simplified development and the ability to integrate code written in various languages.

This book is a high-end comprehensive reference to the capability of the CLR. The samples in the book have been written so that they not only illustrate a principle but give the reader a springboard to quickly translate the sample to practical, real-world applications. After reading this book, readers will be able to significantly increase their productivity by comfortably using the power and expressiveness of the Common Language Runtime in their applications. This book will take the reader beyond the syntax of C# to using and understanding the CLR to build secure, maintainable, and high performance applications.
