Synopsis

Microsoft developers, get ready for Windows Vista programming! Microsoft Windows Communication Foundation: Hands-on addresses an unmet need in the marketplace as there are no books, or much documentation at all, of the post-Beta 1 WCF programming model. This book contains the information you will need to work with this technology upon its release.

You will gain a comprehensive understanding of how to apply the Windows Communication Foundation to almost any distributed computing problem, from enterprise scale to peer-to-peer. Most importantly, after reading the book and working through the examples, you will actually have considerable experience using WCF, because the book takes you through the steps of actually building Windows Communication Foundation solutions.

Microsoft Windows Communication Foundation: Hands-on

is the only book to cover capabilities comprehensively, including the facilities for building Representational State Transfer and Plain XML software services, and the extensive management interfaces.

Book Overview: Windows Communication Foundation (WCF--formerly codename Indigo) ties together previously separate Microsoft connectivity technologies (Web Services, MSMQ, COM+, .NET Remoting, etc.) into a single programming model. WCF is part of the WinFX platform that is essentially the Windows Programming SDK that will ship with Windows Vista. This title addresses an unmet need in the marketplace as there are no books, or much documentation at all, of the post-Beta 1 WCF programming model and therefore brings developers the information they need to be prepared to work with this technology upon its release. The reader will gain a comprehensive understanding of how to apply the Windows Communication Foundation to almost any distributed computing problem, from enterprise scale to peer-to-peer. Most importantly, after reading the book and working through the examples, they will actually have considerable experience using WCF, because the book and accompanying CD take the reader through the steps of actually building Windows Communication Foundation solutions.
