All,
I'm looking to get myself a book on C++/CLI, and would greatly
appreciate advice from this group. I'm particularly interested in
interop/mixing managed and unmanaged code, I already know standard C++
so what I don't want is a book covering C++ basics, nor do I really
want reams of class library documentation. Ideally it should cover
advanced topics not readily available online and also cover more
recent things (eg marshal_as).
I have the following books under consideration, my only info on them
comes from looking at the TOCs and the few reviews I have dug out.
1. Expert Visual C++/CLI - Marcus Heege. I like the look of this, but
the price is a bit steep.
2. C++/CLI: The Visual C++ Language for .NET - Gordon Hogeson.
3. Pro Visual C++/CLI and the .NET 2.0 Platform - Stephen Fraser. I've
more or less discounted this for the reasons cited above.
4. C++/CLI in Action - Nishant Sivakumar. This looks like a good bet,
but not sure it's as comprehensive as the Heege book.
To add to the confusion, Hogeson and Fraser are bringing out new books
covering
..NET 3.5 within the next few months! Should I hold fire until then?
Any and all opinions would be greatly appreciated.

4. C++/CLI in Action - Nishant Sivakumar. This looks like a good bet,
but not sure it's as comprehensive as the Heege book.
Nish is an expert in C++/CLI (he is a VC++ MVP, too).
I would choose Nish's book.

Hey guys,
I have been programming on and off in C for many years now, but I
seem to forget the format of some function calls/conventions here and there,
I might be working on something that is written entirely in assembly
language for
months.. Come back to do some C and there'll be something here and there
that escapes me.
What I am after is recommendations on a good book to keep as a reference

I'd like any recommendations on a good ASP.NET book which discusses these
topics:

Hi.
I'm looking for some recommendations for Visual Basic 2005 books.
Specifically, I'm NOT looking for books that detail the elements of
the language, nor explain OOP, but rather present real-world scenarios
for application development, and show how classes/components can be
developed together to form the overall application.
As an example, I already have a copy of Wrox's "ASP.NET 2.0 Website

I'd like to ask for book recommendations, please.
I'm a VB guy looking to move to C#. I have quite a fair amount of
experience of VB.NET (and prior to that, VB4 through VB6), so I'm not
new to programming or the .NET framework itself. I am also quite
versed in general "object oriented" programming, especially since
moving to VB.NET from VB6, although I've done object-oriented
programming in VB6, too (well, as much as you can...

Hi!
I plan to develope a web application with PHP, and I am looking for a
book that aids me. I already have experience with PHP as well as
relational databases, but I never have written a big web application.
Moreover, I have programmed in other programming languages (mostly C++,
Java and C) and I have knowledge about UML, design patterns and

I do not need a beginner's book, but a book that gives me some insight

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:
