Product Description
Enterprise Application Development with Visual C++ 2005 teaches developers how to create practical business applications using managed C++ and Visual Studio 2005. It offers best practices for coding and C++ development, including class programming, code factoring, source control, memory management, and interdependency and interoperability. Special attention is also given to new features in Visual C++ 2005, such as IDE enhancements, compiler features, ECMA syntax for managed C++, and C++ language extensions. Database application development, XML Web Service integration, and MSI deployment tools integrated in Visual Studio 2005 are also covered in detail. Throughout the book a wide variety of practical examples are used to illustrate features of the language. In addition, users learn how to create an enterprise application installation package from the ground up, which performs a full range of deployment tasks ranging from creating SQL Server database to registering and configuring both managed and unmanaged Windows and XML Web Services. After reading this detailed resource, developers and programmers will have all the skills needed to create enterprise-quality applications.

 Bad book May 9, 2007

I cannot find this book useful. It's a heap of shallow text, harmful for beginners and unuseful for any other. It lacks of substance and it's full of errors and imperfections. Who want it?!
Pretty good, some rough edges January 15, 2007
4 out of 7 found this review helpful
I bought this book because I'm a long-time C++ developer (mostly Gnu) and wanted to come up to speed fast on VC++ 2005. This book was good for that, although I'd not recommend it as a way to learn C++ from the ground up.
The book has two rough edges: (a) occasional proofreading mistakes (sometimes amounting to fairly serious errors of fact, more often just typos), and (b) continuous "moose and squirrel" grammar that omits definite article. ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Article_(grammar) ) With those caveats, I'd recommend it for the same purpose I used it.
 A top reference for applications developers August 4, 2006
3 out of 8 found this review helpful
Max Fomitchev's Enterprise Application Development With Visual C++ 2005 comes from a Moscow Ph.D. and covers the best practices for coding and C++ development. Plenty of practical real-life examples pepper instruction on how to use compilers, enhance and change database applications, and more. The fundamentals of successful coding and application development practices are imparted along with coverage of the latest Visual C++ 2005 features, making this a top reference for applications developers.
Taking C++ into the .NET Environment June 13, 2006
14 out of 18 found this review helpful
For programming enterprise level applications the Microsoft .NET framework has grown to some 30% marketshare (J2EE has about 40%). While originally .NET was developed to compete with the Java Runtime libraries as part of the breakup of Microsoft that was ordered by Judge Jackson, it has become a major thrust within Microsoft to help maintain their dominant position in the marketplace.
For developing applications Microsoft has developed the Visual Studio integrated development environment which supports the programming of applications in four languages: Visual Basic, C#, J# and of course C++. While Microsoft would prefer that you use their propriatary languages they still support C++ which is arguably somewhat more powerful than the other languages.
This book is a complete and detailed text on programming in C++ using Visual Studio 2005. It is highly oriented to the .NET Framework 2.0. The book is more in reference format than tutorial which makes it easier to find what you are lookin for when you go back to confirm what you've read. It is intended for both experienced and novice C++ programmers, but I don't think that it is suitable for the total beginner to programming. Some work beforehand on a beginning C++ book would be desirable, a lot of the minor details like language structure are not explained at the absolute beginner level.
