With its support for dynamic programming, C# 4.0 continues to evolve as
a versatile language on its own. But when C# is used with .NET Framework
4, the combination is incredibly powerful. This bestselling tutorial
shows you how to build web, desktop, and rich Internet applications
using C# 4.0 with .NET's database capabilities, UI framework (WPF),
extensive communication services (WCF), and more.
In this sixth edition, .NET experts Ian Griffiths, Matthew Adams, and
Jesse Liberty cover the latest enhancements to C#, as well as the
fundamentals of both the language and framework. You'll learn concurrent
programming with C# 4.0, and how to use .NET tools such as the Entity
Framework for easier data access, and the Silverlight platform for
browser-based RIA development.
