Description
"TCP/IP sockets in C# is an excellent book for anyone interested in writing network applications using Microsoft .Net frameworks. It is
a unique combination of well written concise text and rich carefully selected set of working examples. For the beginner of network programming,
it's a good starting book; on the other hand professionals could also take advantage of excellent handy sample code snippets and material
on topics like message parsing and asynchronous programming."
Adarsh Khare, SDT, .Net Frameworks Team, Microsoft Corporation
The popularity
of the C# language and the .NET framework is ever rising due to its ease of use, the extensive class libraries available in the .NET
Framework, and the ubiquity of the Microsoft Windows operating system, to name a few advantages. TCP/IP Sockets in C# focuses on the
Sockets API, the de facto standard for writing network applications in any programming language. Starting with simple client and server
programs that use TCP/IP (the Internet protocol suite), students and practitioners quickly learn the basics and move on to firsthand
experience with advanced topics including non-blocking sockets, multiplexing, threads, asynchronous programming, and multicasting. Key
network programming concepts such as framing, performance and deadlocks are illustrated through hands-on examples. Using a detailed
yet clear, concise approach, this book includes numerous code examples and focused discussions to provide a solid understanding of programming
TCP/IP sockets in C#.
Features
*Tutorial-based instruction in key sockets programming techniques complemented by numerous code examples
throughout
*Discussion moves quickly into the C# Sockets API definition and code examples, desirable for those who want to get up-to-speed
quickly
*Important coverage of "under the hood" details that developers will find useful when creating and using a socket or a higher
level TCP class that utilizes sockets
*Includes end-of-chapter exercises to facilitate learning, as well as sample code available for
download at the book's companion web site
Audience
Software applications developers and programmers who use the C# language
