Programming Perl in the.NET Environment (Oberg .NET) Book

With Perl.NET it is now possible to use and create .NET components and to wrap existing Perl modules so that they are available to all .NET compliant languages. Perl.NET enables you to enjoy both worlds - .NET and Perl. By combining their features you'll have an ability to develop powerful robust components that may be reused in other .NET applications. This book provides many programs that illustrate features of Perl and .NET. The programs are clearly labeled in the text, and they are available through the associated Web site. There is also a case study that illustrates many features of Perl and .NET working together in combination, as they would in a practical application. The authors show you how to use .NET classes in Perl programs and how to create .NET components using Perl. Important .NET classes are surveyed, and there is coverage of using .NET in specific areas, including graphical user interfaces, database programming using ADO.NET, XML, ASP.NET and Web services. Also, in the appendix "C# Survival Guide" you will see how Perl interoperates with .NET languages, using C#, the language designed for .NET, as an example.Read More
