 Good reference February 14, 2006
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
If you're into, or getting into, .NET programming with Delphi, this is a good reference. I am a professional programmer, and Delphi is one of 4 languages I use on a regular basis. I bought this book, and Cantu's book, about two months ago to ease into ASP.NET from 12 years of VCL programming. Both books are very helpful, but my Pacheco book is way more dog-eared than the Cantu book, so that says something right there.
 Beautiful! December 30, 2005
Beautiful introduction to .NET and Delphi language / environment. Especially enjoyed the
sections on GDI programming, assemblies, and cross platform demos. Great job.
Excellent, lots of advanced topics December 6, 2004
5 out of 7 found this review helpful
Though this book aimed primarilly at .NET rather than Delphi it self, but I think its approach is correct, for the readers that already familiar Delphi 5/6/7. I would call this book '.NET for Delphi programmers'.
This book contains advanced topics I didn't feel useful first time. But lately I migrate some old Delphi 5 compoment packages
to VCL.NET, I found there're many useful topics in this book.
In a word, I like this book and it worth the money.
 Good .NET instruction, but not very Delphi-centric August 7, 2004
21 out of 23 found this review helpful
I was initially disappointed by this book, though now I am only slightly negative. In the book, the author provides a good overview of how you can use Delphi for .NET and ASP.NET. I did learn a lot about .NET and am better prepared for the migration.
However, this looks and reads like an editted C# book. Except for a few pages (literally one chapter), there is very little about Delphi. The examples are in Delphi, which helps with the understanding, but the author uses the Microsoft .NET libraries and DOES NOT USE EVEN ONE of the Borland specific libraries like VCL.NET, etc. in his examples.
Overall, an educational book, but not what I was looking for.
Essential for Delphi .Net developer July 21, 2004
6 out of 9 found this review helpful
The book covers an excellent range of topics. As both Delphi and .Net are large subjects I think Xavier has managed the content very well.
The book is easy to read and the examples are very easy to follow.
The Delphi 6 Developers Guide on CD is also a nice bonus if you are still developing for Win32 in Delphi 6/7.
What I expect out of this type of book is to reduce my learning curve and allow me to start writing programs, Delphi for .NET Developer's Guide has certainly done that for me.
If you are going to write .NET programs in Delphi than you want this book on your shelf.
