The definitive, example-driven guide to object-development with Visual Basic 2005 "Doing Objects in Visual Basic 2005" is the definitive guide to object-oriented design, architecture, and development with Visual Basic 2005. Author Deborah Kurata has spent more than a decade pioneering VB object-oriented development, and has been honored with Microsoft's prestigious MVP designation. Now, in this code-rich book, she illuminates all the techniques you need to know -from the absolute basics to Visual Basic 2005's breakthrough object binding capabilities. Kurata starts with a concise, simple introduction to core object-oriented concepts and the Visual Basic 2005 features that support them. Next, she introduces an elegant, easy approach to architecting VB 2005 applications for maximum efficiency and more effective scheduling and budgeting. Then, using a full-fledged case study application, she illuminates every key element of VB 2005 object development. Kurata's step-by-step "building along" activities give you deep hands-on mastery, and your finished application can serve as the starting point for virtually any custom project. - Written from the ground up to reflect important changes in VB 2005, from object binding to the new Class Designer - Clearly explains all the fundamental concepts of object development: classes, inheritance, interfaces, scenarios (a.k.a. use cases), and more - Introduces best practices for architecting and designing effective "N-layered" applications - Presents architectural techniques that keep users involved, so you can deliver what they really need - Walks through building new projects with the Visual Basic 2005 toolbox, one step at a time - Presents detailedguidance for developing user interface, business logic, and data access layers - Reveals how to make the most of object binding, and manage the complexities associated with its features and options Foreword Preface Chapter 1: Introduction to OO in .NET Chapter 2: Designing Software Chapter 3: Building Projects Chapter 4: Building the User Interface Layer Chapter 5: Building the Business Logic Layer Chapter 6: Class Tools and Techniques Chapter 7: Binding the User Interface to the Business Objects Chapter 8: Building the Data Access LayerKurata, Deborah is the author of 'Doing Objects in Visual Basic 2005 ', published 2007 under ISBN 9780321320490 and ISBN 0321320492.
