Synopsis

Visual Basic guru Dan Appleman exposes the reality behind the VB .NET hype, and shows you how to evaluate this technology in the context of your specific problems. The book is divided into three parts: Strategies, Concepts, and Code. In Strategies, you'll learn how VB .NET is perfect for new development of web and other server side applications. In Concepts, you'll learn key concepts such as inheritance and multithreading, and why they are over-hyped. And in Code, you'll learn the VB .NET language and many of its features—all based on your current knowledge of VB6.

Appleman explains the technology features of VB .NET, as well as the reasons and controversies around some of those choices. You'll learn to write high quality VB .NET code in well-designed applications. Above all, Appleman conveys his solid understanding of technology and the needs of real developers.
