Password sniffing, spoofing, buffer overflows, and denial of service: these are only a few of the attacks on today's computer systems and networks. At the root of this epidemic is poorly written, poorly tested, and insecure code that puts everyone at risk. Clearly, today's developers need help figuring out how to write code that attackers won't be able to exploit. But writing such code is surprisingly difficult. "Secure Programming Cookbook for C and C++" is an important new resource for developers serious about writing secure code. It contains a wealth of solutions to problems faced by those who care about the security of their applications.

Completely updated for C# 3.0 and the .NET 3.5 platform, the new edition of this bestseller offers more than 250 code recipes to common and not-so-common problems that C# programmers face every day. Every recipe in the book has been reconsidered with more than a third of them rewritten to take advantage of new C# 3.0 features. If you prefer solutions you can use today to general C# language instruction, and quick answers to theory, this is your book. C# 3.0 Cookbook offers a new chapter on LINQ (language integrated query), plus two expanded chapters for recipes for extension methods, lambda functions, object initializers, new synchronization primitives and more. The new edition is also complemented by a public wiki, which not only includes all of the C# 2.0 recipes from the previous edition unchanged by the release of C# 3.0, but invites you to suggest better ways to solve those tasks. Here are some of topics covered: LINQ Numeric data types and Enumerations Strings and characters Classes and structures Generics Collections Exception handling Delegates, events, and lambda expressions Filesystem interactions Web site access XML usage (including LINQ to XML, XPath and XSLT) Networking Threading Data Structures and Algorithms Each recipe in the book includes tested code that you can download from oreilly.com and reuse in your own applications, and each one includes a detailed discussion of how and why the underling technology works.

In der Version 5 hat PHP einige technische Beschrankungen der Vorversionen uberwunden, unter anderem Schwachen beim Objektmodell und der XML-Unterstutzung. Mit den neuen Sprachmerkmalen schlie?t die PHP-Plattform nun zu anderen, professionell schon langer eingesetzten Technologien auf.
Dieses Buch zeigt erfahrenen PHP-Entwicklern den Weg in die neue, objektorientierte PHP-5-Welt.
Zu Beginn werden die Grundlagen der objektorientierten Programmierung sowie deren Umsetzung in PHP vermittelt, und es wird beschrieben, wie die testgetriebene Entwicklung von PHP-Anwendungen funktioniert. Anschlie?end werden mehrere wichtige Entwurfsmuster ("Design Patterns") behandelt und im PHP-Umfeld verwendet. Die folgenden Kapitel befassen sich mit der Verarbeitung von XML-Dokumenten, der Programmierung mit Webdiensten (SOAP) und der MySQLi-Erweiterung fur die Arbeit mit MySQL 4.1 und MySQL 5.0. Der nachste Teil des Buches widmet sich dann der Datenbankabstraktion mit Creole und der Speicherung von PHP-O bjekten in einer relationalen Datenbank mit Propel.

Product Description
In Winning With Software, the world's leading expert in software process improvement turns his attention to executives, demonstrating how to transform software development into a powerful competitive advantage -- and revealing the risks of inaction. Watts Humphrey begins by illuminating the central role of software development in virtually every organization -- technical and non-technical alike. He helps executives understand the "operational profile" of their current software development organizations; explains why software projects fail; demonstrates the bottom-line advantages of software quality; and more. Humphrey shows how to set realistic quality goals; explains how to change engineering behavior that leads to suboptimal results; and demonstrates how to build motivated teams. The book concludes with detailed primers on the Personal Software Process (PSP ) and Team Software Process (TSP ), Humphrey's breakthrough solutions for making software quality improvement succeed over the long haul. For all CxO-level executives, line-of-business managers, and IT managers.

Validation and verification is an area of software engineering that has been around since the early stages of program development, especially one of its more known areas: testing. Testing, the dynamic side of validation and verification (V and V), has been complemented with other, more formal techniques of software engineering, and so the static verification traditional in formal methods has been joined by model checking and other techniques. Verification, Validation and Testing in Software Engineering offers thorough coverage of many valuable formal and semiformal techniques of V and V. It explores, depicts, and provides examples of different applications in V and V that produce many areas of software development including real-time applications where V and V techniques are required.
