Abstract: This article touches Microsoft's new book microsft. net Framework 3.5-Windows Forms Application Development, this is an exam book, but it does help a lot for beginners and advanced students.
Microsft. NET Framework 3.5-Windows Forms Application Development (hereinafter referred to as winform) is itself an exam book (Training Kit, MCTs Exam 70-505 ). Therefore, for those who want to learn Windows Forms programming, this book is better than other winform technology books on the market.
The biggest feature of the exam book is going straight into the subject and opening the door. From Chapter 1, you will learn the core technologies of winform, rather than the so-called "background", "Introduction", or something. Therefore, the amount of gold in this 700-plus-page book is still very high.
Winform not only introduces technology, but also introduces many techniques. For example, in chapter 1, apart from the various properties of the form, we also introduce non-rectangular forms. This is very valuable, because general examination books or official books tend to focus on technology and ignore skills. In actual development work, skills are often more useful than technology.
The book winform is a word in summary-all. This book is all about winform. Form, use basic Windows controls, create your own controls, print, drag and drop, asynchronous, and data access. For beginners, this book can establish a comprehensive knowledge system. Even winform veterans will inevitably have some technologies that they rarely get involved in, so they can take this book as a reference, you can use it as needed.
Some friends may be confused, winform programming, isn't it just dragging the mouse? Do you need to read and learn? Haha, there is a lot of knowledge in small drag-and-drop operations. Sometimes, a small deviation in operations may bring unexpected problems. Another feature of winform is its detailed introduction to operations. The menu items to choose and the position to click are described in detail. In addition, this book provides a large number of screens to display the results of operations and operations.
The only pity is that such a comprehensive book only introduces technical skills from elementary to advanced, not advanced skills. For example, when using Asynchronization, there will be a lot worth noting; Printing control, custom control, and so on, there are still many more valuable topics behind it, however, these topics are often difficult to find from third-party technical books or technologies.Article.
At last, the book has a nickname of ". NET Framework 3.5. In fact, after winform reaches. NET 2.0, it is basically finalized. After. Net 3.0, Microsoft began to vigorously develop WPF. Therefore, the knowledge and technology introduced in this book should be used as early as 2.0-in other words, if you have been using 2.0 (maybe you have no conditions or desire to change to 3.5 ), you can still use this book to learn winform without worrying ". net 3.5 is too new ".
