This book discusses COM+ component services. Each service is covered in its own chapter , and each chapter discusses a similar range of issues: the problem the service addresses, possible solut ions to that problem, an in-depth descript ion of the COM+ solut ion, t radeoffs, design, and implementat ion guidelines, t ips, and known pit falls. I have t ried to provide useful design informat ion and lessons I learned while applying COM+ . I also descr ibe COM+ helper classes and utilities I developed that will enhance your product ivity significant ly. (The COM+ Events helper objects and the COM+ Logbook are prime examples.) This book focuses on the "how to"— that is, it provides pract ical informat ion. You should read the chapters in order , since most chapters rely on informat ion discussed in the preceding chapters. The book also aims to explain COM+ step by step. A software engineer already familiar with COM who wants to know what COM+ is and how to use it can read this book and start developing COM+ applicat ions immediately. download
