Like most complex tasks, .NET programming is fraught with potential
costly, and time-consuming hazards. The millions of Microsoft developers
worldwide who create applications for the .NET platform can attest to
that. Thankfully there's now a book that shows you how to avoid such
costly and time-consuming mistakes. It's called .NET Gotchas.The
ultimate guide for efficient, pain-free coding, .NET Gotchas from
O'Reilly contains 75 common .NET programming pitfalls--and advice on how
to work around them. It will help you steer away from those mistakes
that cause application performance problems, or so taint code that it
just doesn't work right.The book is organized into nine chapters, each
focusing on those features and constructs of the .NET platform that
consistently baffle developers. Within each chapter are several
"gotchas," with detailed examples, discussions, and guidelines for
avoiding them. No doubt about it, when applied, these concise
presentations of best practices will help you lead a more productive,
stress-free existence.What's more, because code examples are written in
both VB.NET and C#, .NET Gotchas is of interest to more than 75
percent of the growing numbers of .NET programmers. So if you're a .NET
developer who's mired in the trenches and yearning for a better way,
this book is most definitely for you.
