Book Overview

Web services are perhaps the most important feature of .NET development. They take componentization to a new level by allowing method calls to be made over the Internet or over an intranet using... This description may be from another edition of this product.

Hot Technology

As a first read on web services this was not bad. It is a passable reference as well.The book starts with a summary of the technology and a brief overview of the component technologies - XML, SOAP, WSDL, UDDI - and how it fits into the .Net framework .A large section is devoted to .Net Remoting followed by more on consuming and updating web services and clients. There are ample examples of the design and coding of simple to moderately complex web services. While I noticed the usual mistakes and typos in a book that was probably rushed to meet demand for .Net literature, none were overly distracting or confusing. The book concludes with some case studies and more examples. While it is not really necessary to have a knowledge of C#, the reader should have a good grounding in object oriented programming languages and some knowledge of COM or RPC wouldn't hurt. I see this technology as the successor to COM (the fact that Don Box was involved in the SOAP standard definition reinforces that idea), perhaps even finally living up to the dream of plugable code modules. I could see using this as the text for teaching a web services class. P-)

I found this to be a good source of information...

Don't know why others are saying this isn't a great book. I think it is!

Probably the book that I used most

If you want to get the understanding of .NET Remoting, this is the right book.XML Web Services with ASP .NET are quite easy to build, so, this book doesn't looses too much time on it.If you want to learn only ASP .NET web services then you can try other titles that covers only this.

Tough subjects but don't give up!

To really understand Web Services and Remoting requires hard work, but if you take the time and don't give up, this book will give you a solid understanding of the subjects, especially Remoting. Not only the basics but also advanced techniques. I've read the book a couple of times, together with Professional ASP.NET Web Services, and written the code examples, so now I'm doing my own projects with both techniques and feeling confident with what I'm doing. But it takes time!

Great book on Remoting

No book currently out has as much quality material on .NET Remoting. This book really helped me understand this technology. While some material on Web Services is duplicated, the Remoting material alone makes the book a good buy.
