This book shows you how to write programs that run under M'zoft Windows. There are a number of ways to write such programs. In this book. I Use the new object-oriented programing language C#(pronounced "C sharp") and a moderm class library called Windows Forms. The Windows Forms class library is part of the M'zoft .NET("dot new") Framework unveriled in the summer of 2000 and intreduced about a year and a half later.

The M'zoft .Net Framework is an extensive collection of classes that provides programmers with much of what they need to write internet, Web, and Windows applications. Much of the media coverage of .NET has focused on the Web programming. This book discusses the other part of .NET.You use Windows Forms to write traditional stand-alone Windows applications (what are now somietimes called client applications) or front ends for distributed applications.

Windwos Forms provides almost everything you need to write full-fledged Windows applications. The big omission is multimedia support. There's not even a Windows Forms function to beep the computer's spearker! I was tempted to write my own multimedia classed but restrained myself under the assumption (reasonalbe, I hope) that the next release of Windows Forms will include multimedia support that is flexible, powerful, and easy to use.

The classes defined in the .Net Framework are language-neutral. M'zoft has released new versions of C++ and Visual Basic that can use these classes, as well as the new programming language C#. Other language vendors are adapting their own languages to use the .NET classes. language in an .exe file. At runtime, the intermediate language is compiled into appropriate microprocessor machine code. Thus, the .NET Framework is potentially platform independent.

I chilse to use C# for this book because C# and .NET were - in a very real sense - made for each other. Because of the language-neutral aspect of the .NET Framework, you may be able to use this book to learn how to write Windows Forms applications with other .Net languages.

The extensive changes to the language and the introduction of the .NET platform make a reference guide to the Visual Basic language more essential than ever. At the same time, they make it easy to delineate this book's subject matter. This is a book that focuses on the language elements of Visual Basic .NET? on its statements, functions, procedures, directives, and objects (notably the Err and Collection objects).

There are literally hundreds of books lining the shelves on how to program using Visual Basic, and they will no doubt be joined by a flood of books on how to program in VB .NET. The majority of these books assume that you're a complete novice and slowly introduce you to such concepts as variables, arrays, and looping structures.

This is a different kind of book, however. It is a detailed, professional reference to the VB .NET language?a reference that you can turn to if you want to jog your memory about a particular language element or a particular parameter. You're also looking for a reference that you can turn to when you're having difficulty programming and need to review the rules for using a particular language element, or when you want to check that there isn't some "gotcha" you've overlooked that is associated with a particular language element.

In addition, we believe this book will serve as the main reference for VB 6 programmers who are upgrading to VB .NET. To this end, we have devoted considerable space to the extensive language differences between VB 6 and VB .NET. For each relevant language entry, we have included a "VB .NET/VB 6 Differences" section that details the differences in the operation of the language element between VB 6 and VB .NET.

Need to make sense of the many changes to Visual Basic for the new .NET platform? VB .NET Language in a Nutshell introduces the important aspects of the language and explains the .NET framework. An alphabetical reference covers the functions, statements, directives, objects, and object members that make up the VB .NET language. To ease the transition, each language element includes a "VB .NET/VB 6 Differences" section.

When a tree falls in the forest and no one is around to hear it, it certainly makes a sound. But if a computer network has a security vulnerability and no one knows about it, is it insecure? Only the most extreme Berkeleian idealist might argue against the former, but the latter is not nearly so obvious.

A network with a security vulnerability is insecure to those who know about the vulnerability.If noone knows about it—if it is literally a vulnerability that has not been discovered—then the network is secure. If one person knows about it, then the network is insecure to him but secure to everyone else. If the network equipment manufacturer knows about it...if security researchers know about it...if the hacking community knows about it the insecurity of the network increasesas news of the vulnerability gets out.

Or does it? The vulnerability exists, whether or not anyone knows about it.Publishing a vulnerability does not cause the network to be insecure. To claim that would be confusing knowledge about a thing with the thing itself. Publishing increases the likelihood that an attacker will use the vulnerability, but not the severity of the vulnerability. Publishing also increases the likelihood that people can defend against the vulnerability. Just as an attacker can't exploit a vulnerability he does not know about, a defender can't protect against a vulnerability he does not know about.

So if keeping vulnerabilities secret increases security, it does so in a fragile way. Keeping vulnerabilities secret only works as long as they remain secret—but everything about information works toward spreading information. Some people spread secrets accidentally; others spread them on purpose. Sometimes secrets are re-derived by someone else. And once a secret is out, it can never be put back.

Like so many children, as a youth I was mystified by this wonderful and exasperating thing called memory. In casual and relaxed situations it worked so smoothly that I hardly ever noticed it; in examinations it only occasionally performed well, to my surprise, but was more often associated with 'bad memory', the fearful area of forgetting. Since I spent much of my childhood in the country with animals, I began to realise that the misnamed 'dumb' creatures seemed to have extraordinary memories, often superior to my own. Why, then, was human memory apparently so faulty?

I began to study in earnest, eagerly devouring information about how the early Greeks had devised specific memory systems for various tasks; and how, later, the Romans applied these techniques to enable themselves to remember whole books of mythology and to impress their audiences during senatorial speeches and debates. My interest became more focused while I was in college, when the realisation slowly dawned on me that such basic systems need not be used only for 'rote' or parrotlike memory, but could be used as gigantic filing systems for the mind, enabling extraordinarily fast and efficient access, and enormously enhancing general understanding. I applied the techniques in taking examinations, in playing games with my imagination in order to improve my memory, and in helping other students, who were supposedly on the road to academic failure, achieve first-class successes.

The explosion of brain research during the last decade has confirmed what the memory theorists, gamesters, mnemonic technicians and magicians have always known: that the holding capacity of our brains and the ability to recall what is stored there are far and deliciously beyond normal expectations.

Use Your Memory, a major new development from the memory sections of Use Your Head, is an initial tour through what should have been included as first among the seven wonders of the world: the 'hanging gardens' of limitless memory and imagination.

Use Your Head is written to help you do just that. By the time you have finished the book you should understand much more about how your mind works and how to use it to the best advantage, be able to read faster and more efficiently, to study more effectively, to solve problems more readily and to increase the power of your memory.

This introductory section gives general guide lines about the book's contents, and the ways in which these contents are best approached.

Each chapter deals with a different aspect of your brain's functioning. First the book outlines the most up-to-date information about the brain and then applies this information to the way in which your vision can be best used.

Next, a chapter explains how you can improve memory both during and after learning. In addition a special system is introduced for the perfect memorisation of listed items.

The middle chapters explore the brain's internal 'maps'. This information about how you think is applied to the way in which you can use language, words and imagery for recording, organising, remembering, creative thinking and problem solving.

The last chapters deal with the new Organic Study Method which will enable you to study any subject ranging from English to Higher Mathematics.

In the centre of the book you will find mind maps which you are advised to look at before reading each chapter - they serve as a preview/review summary.

Visual Astronomy Under Dark Skies
Springer
ISBN: 1852339012 
192 pages  PDF

Modern astronomical telescopes, along with other advances in technology, have brought the deep sky – star clusters, nebulae and the galaxies – within reach of amateur astronomers. And it isn’t even necessary to image many of these deep-sky objects in order to see them; they are within reach of visual observers using modern techniques and enhancement technology. The first requirement is truly dark skies; if you are observing from a light-polluted environment you need Tony Cooke’s book, Visual Astronomy in the Suburbs. Given a site with clear, dark night skies everything else follows… this book will provide the reader with everything he needs to know about what to observe, and using some of today’s state-of-the-art technique and commercial equipment, how to get superb views of faint and distant astronomical objects.

This concise, high-end guide shows experienced administrators how to customize and extend popular open source security tools such as Nikto, Ettercap, and Nessus. It also addresses port scanners, packet injectors, network sniffers, and web assessment tools. Network Security Tools is the one resource you want at your side when locking down your network.

If you're an advanced security professional, then you know that the battle to protect online privacy continues to rage on. Security chat rooms, especially, are resounding with calls for vendors to take more responsibility to release products that are more secure. In fact, with all the information and code that is passed on a daily basis, it's a fight that may never end.

Fortunately, there are a number of open source security tools that give you a leg up in the battle. Often a security tool does exactly what you want, right out of the box. More frequently, you need to customize the tool to fit the needs of your network structure. Network Security Tools shows experienced administrators how to modify, customize, and extend popular open source security tools such as Nikto, Ettercap, and Nessus. This concise, high-end guide discusses the common customizations and extensions for these tools, then shows you how to write even more specialized attack and penetration reviews that are suited to your unique network environment. It also explains how tools like port scanners, packet injectors, network sniffers, and web assessment tools function. Some of the topics covered include:
 - Writing your own network sniffers and packet injection tools
 - Writing plugins for Nessus, Ettercap, and Nikto
 - Developing exploits for Metasploit
 - Code analysis for web applications
 - Writing kernel modules for security applications, and understanding rootkits


While many books on security are either tediously academic or overly sensational, Network Security Tools takes an even-handed and accessible approach that will let you quickly review the problem and implement new, practical solutions--without reinventing the wheel. In an age when security is critical, Network Security Tools is the resource you want at your side when locking down your network.

Visual Basic .NET Kick Start is a rapid-progression tutorial that presents Visual Basic .NET to working programmers already familiar with another programming language or tool. This book speeds through basic concepts and focuses on practical examples showing the advantages of Visual Basic .NET in ASP programming, application design and creation, and .NET Web Services development. Because previous versions of Visual Basic are so prevalent, this book pays special attention to issues developers face when moving from VB to VB.NET. Although Visual Basic .NET Kick Start assumes no knowledge of the .NET Framework, it skips the handholding and basic programming instruction associated with entry-level tutorials. Full of code examples, tips, and professional insights, this book is about maximum payoff with minimum effort for the working programming who wants to use Visual Basic .NET now.

Visual Basic has slowly evolved over the years, incorporating a variety of features and moving itself into the world of "enterprise" development, but everything was being built on top of an already existing foundation. This is not unusual; most development tools progress in this way, but it has the unfortunate side effect of garbage accumulation. New versions of the tool try to stay compatible with, and therefore have to keep all the less-than-perfect aspects of, the previous versions. To rewrite the language from scratch is almost unthinkable. The work required would be enormous and breaking compatibility with the user's existing code is bound to make you unpopular. The benefit of such a move would be a completely clean and new implementation that can keep the good and throw away the bad parts of the existing language.

That is exactly what Micro$oft has done in the move from Visual Basic 6.0 to Visual Basic .NET. They have rewritten the language to create a clean version that does away with the garbage built up over a decade of successive language improvements. That means a hard learning curve for people who were experienced in the previous version of the language, but the end result is worth the effort. This radical shift makes this a great time to get up to speed on Visual Basic .NET, as the concepts taught in this book will have a much longer lifespan than material covering the previous version.

There are many benefits to this change, all of which were motivators for this decision, but the most significant motivation was the need to conform to the new .NET environment. As a necessary bit of background before you can jump into the specific changes that occurred between Visual Basic 6 and Visual Basic .NET, you'll learn more about .NET, including what it is and how Visual Basic fits into it.

With ADO.NET, you can build database-enabled applications and Web services with more speed, flexibility, and power than ever before. ADO.NET Programming in Visual Basic .NET teaches you all you'll need to know to make the most of ADO.NET - whether you're an experienced Visual Basic database programmer or not. The authors' realistic code examples and practical insights illuminate ADO.NET from its foundations to state-of-the-art data binding and application optimization.

If this book is titled ADO .NET Programming in Visual Basic .NET, why do I keep referring to Visual Studio? Well, in the past, VB (and its variants, VBScript and VB For Applications) was the most natural environment for ADO database programming. The other Visual Studio tools (Visual C++, Visual Interdev, Visual FoxPro) could all use ADO, but since ADO was designed around the COM (Component Object Model) architecture, VB was the easiest way to use the package. With the advent of Visual Studio .NET, this has all changed.

Visual Studio .NET no longer uses COM as its underlying architecture. Instead it uses the Extensible Markup Language (XML) and Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP). (You can still use your old COM objects in .NET, even ADO, but that is outside the scope of this book.) The common language runtime (CLR) interpreter allows all of the managed languages (VB, Managed C++, and C#) to utilize a common set of data types and interfaces so they can all use the same objects interchangeably. In fact, you can write components in C# and use them in VB and vice-versa. So while we will use VB .NET syntax in all of the examples and demonstrations in the book, the principles we are sharing will apply equally to C#.

VB.NET Core Classes in a Nutshell, provides a concise and thorough reference to the types found in the core namespaces of the .NET Framework Class Library. A companion to VB.NET Language in a Nutshell, this is a reference that VB.NET programmers will turn to repeatedly. Due to a special partnership between O'Reilly and Microsoft, this book also includes a CD that integrates the book's reference into Visual Studio .NET.

As a reference guide to the core classes, we think you'll find Visual Basic .NET Core Classes in a Nutshell to be an essential book regardless of your level of experience with Visual Basic. Whether you are an experienced Visual Basic developer or a relatively new programmer just beginning to work with Visual Basic and the .NET platform, you'll find that Visual Basic .NET Core Classes in a Nutshell provides an extremely helpful description of each type in the namespaces documented in Part II, along with a useful list of type members that features VB syntax.

Next time you hit the wall with a tough Visual Basic .NET problem, get the code behind the solution—and solve it the right way. This Programmer’s Cookbook provides at-a-glance reference to hundreds of Visual Basic .NET programming scenarios using a concise problem/solution format. The book’s organized so you can quickly zero in on the topics and answers you need—with practical examples, code snippets, best practices, and shortcuts to get the job done.

The MS Visual Basic .NET language now spans more programming tools, concepts, and application programming interfaces (APIs) than ever before. With the MS .NET Framework, your Visual Basic code can go to work in a MS Windows service, a Web application, an XML Web service, a Windows client, or a remote component. It can use robust multithreading, manipulate relational data and XML, harness COM+ services, and more. With all this functionality comes a price— even the most experienced developer can have trouble isolating a useful feature buried somewhere in the enormous .NET class library!

The MS Visual Basic .NET Programmer's Cookbook is designed to share some of the best practices, tips, and undocumented secrets that help programmers master all aspects of .NET. This book doesn't intend to replace the many excellent tutorials that describe .NET basics and explain the foundational concepts for programming various types of applications. Instead, this book aims to fill the knowledge gaps of a professional programmer. In other words, you shouldn't turn to this book to learn how to create your first multithreaded program. However, when you need a reference that can give you an at-a-glance look at several different asynchronous programming patterns and provide you with a recipe for deriving your own custom thread class, this book will be invaluable.

The best way to think of this book is as a cross between an "FAQ on steroids" and a library of templates that show best practices. It would be impossible to list all the useful snippets of code I've come across as a .NET programmer (and even if I did, the resulting book would be too large and disorganized to be much help to anyone). Instead, this book includes recipes that respond to the questions developers ask again and again on message boards, discussion lists, at conferences, in my .NET courses, and in direct-to-author e-mails. One of the reasons that a book like this works so well is that developers do run into the same problems time and time again, and the right solutions are often universal.

This book not only focuses on how to do things, but also how to do them right. For example, it's easy enough to create a custom Exception class, but developers won't necessarily know the recommended constructors they should include, or the steps they should take to make the exception serializable so that it can be thrown across application domains in a remoting scenario. You'll find a similar theme when using threads, implementing common design patterns in .NET code, or creating custom objects that support the standard interfaces for copying, cloning, and comparing.

Written for developers, researchers, technical assistants, librarians, and power users, Spidering Hacks provides expert tips on spidering and scraping methodologies. You'll begin with a crash course in spidering concepts, tools (Perl, LWP, out-of-the-box utilities), and ethics (how to know when you've gone too far: what's acceptable and unacceptable). Next, you'll collect media files and data from databases. Then you'll learn how to interpret and understand the data, repurpose it for use in other applications, and even build authorized interfaces to integrate the data into your own content.

When the Web began, it was a pretty small place. It didn't take much to keep abreast of new sites, and with subject indexes like the fledgling Yahoo! and NCSA's "What's New" page, you could actually give keeping up with newly added pages the old college try.

Now, even the biggest search engines—yes, even Google—admit they don't index the entire Web. It's simply not possible. At the same time, the Web is more compelling than ever. More information is being put online at a faster clip—be it up-to-the-minute data or large collections of old materials finding an online home. The Web is more browsable, more searchable, and more useful than it ever was when it was still small. That said, we, its users, can only go so fast when searching, processing, and taking in information.

Thankfully, spidering allows us to bring a bit of sanity to the wealth of information available. Spidering is the process of automating the grabbing and sifting of information on the Web, saving us the trouble of having to browse it all manually. Spiders range in complexity from the simplest script to grab the latest weather information from a web page, to the armies of complex spiders working in concert with one another, searching, cataloging, and indexing the Web's more than three billion resources for a search engine like Google.

This book teaches you the methodologies and algorithms behind spiders and the variety of ways that spiders can be used. Hopefully, it will inspire you to come up with some useful spiders of your own.
