Download or read book ASP NET 3 5 Enterprise Application Development with Visual Studio 2008 written by Vincent Varallo and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2009-02-10 with total page 506 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a step-by-step guide for developing an ASP.NET 3.5 application using the latest features in Visual Studio 2008. The Problem Design Solution series by Wrox is unique because it describes a large case study and builds an entire solution chapter by chapter for each incremental step. This book uses a wide variety of new features in Visual Studio 2008, explains each in detail, and produces a solution that you can use as a starting point for your own applications. If you are responsible for designing or developing enterprise-wide applications, departmental applications, portals, or any line of business application, then this book is for you. Many applications have a similar set of features, and this book builds an application with some of the most common features of enterprise applications. Let’s face it: Every application has the same general set of features, but implemented in a different way. A database sits in the back end and you, as the developer, are responsible for enabling users to add, update, select, and delete records. If only it were that simple, no? The real development work starts when you sit with users and try to understand the business process and why they need a new or improved system in the first place. A lot of companies have departments that use Excel and Access wizards to create small systems that eventually become a lifeline for some part of the business. Usually something bad happens because of the nature of the tool they are using. Senior-level management is called in, project managers are hired, programmers are contracted, and the Project Management Office (PMO) is called to save the world. Suddenly this loosely defined process is high priority and people want documented standard operating procedures, audit reports, more productivity, less people, and of course a system that can do it all, which is where you come in. When you think about it, it’s a pretty daunting task. You’re expected to become an expert in someone else’s business process, flaws and all, and create a system that the company will rely on as the backbone for their existence. OK, maybe I’m exaggerating just a little bit, but when you go looking for that raise you might want to phrase it that way. This book will give you the tools necessary to build a framework that can be extended to create a solution to solve your company’s problems. The design pattern uses the normal three layers, the user interface (UI), the business logic layer (BLL), and the data access layer (DAL), but also builds the classes in each layer that encapsulate common business rules such as role-based security, workflow, reporting, dynamic menus, data entry, dynamic querying, notifications, exception handling, and auditing. As the book guides you through the complete solution, each business requirement is thoroughly examined and some of the latest enhancements in ASP.NET 3.5 and Visual Studio 2008 are used to implement them in a reusable framework. Enterprise applications are typically complex, and the teams that build enterprise applications come in all shapes and sizes. Some of the roles include a project sponsor, a project manager, business analysts, an architect, UI developers, middle-tier developers, database developers, and, if you’re really lucky, testers. Just a side note: Users are not testers. If you ever have the pleasure of working with professional testers, you’ll realize how important they are in the process, and how they truly are “quality” assurance engineers. Unfortunately, a lot of companies aren’t willing to invest in professional testers, so the users and/or developers end up assuming that role. This book is mainly focused on the architect and developers, but testers may find it valuable as well to help them understand the plumbing that goes into developing and architecting an enterprise application. This book is for the intermediate to senior level developer or system architect. It would be helpful if you have experience with Visual Studio, the .NET Framework, ASP.NET, and C# because that is what the samples are written in, but the design pattern could be used in any language. The book is focused on enterprise applications, but the pattern could be used for any type of application that has a web front end and connects to a database. The application framework built in this book provides a foundation that can be extended to meet the specific business needs of your organization. The sample application in this book is built using Visual Studio 2008, ASP.NET 3.5, C#, and SQL Server 2005. Each chapter goes into great detail, with plenty of code samples, and uses some of the new features in Visual Studio 2008 and the language enhancements in the .NET Framework 3.5. The solution includes examples for technologies such as LINQ to SQL, master pages, custom controls, GridViews, business objects, data objects, and Crystal Reports. Some of the language enhancements discussed include LINQ, extension methods, partial methods, automatic properties, anonymous types, lambda expressions, and object initializers. Of course, I realize that the code is what most developers are interested in, and each chapter provides numerous examples. The Problem Design Solution series is just that. Each chapter has three sections with a description of the problem to be addressed, the design considerations for choosing a solution for the problem, and the solution that ultimately addresses the problem. The solution includes the bulk of the code. Each chapter builds upon the previous chapter, and it is recommended that you read them in order. The base classes that are described in the first few chapters are critical to an understanding of the rest of the book. Later chapters build upon the base classes and extend their functionality in all three layers of the application.

In Programming ASP.NET, Third Edition, authors Jesse Liberty and Dan Hurwitz give you the lowdown on the technology's latest version, ASP.NET 2.0, as well as Visual Studio 2005. Among the most significant improvements to ASP.NET 2.0 are new server controls and services that make you dramatically more productive. In fact, when compared to its predecessor, ASP.NET 2.0 reduces the amount of code you have to write by about 75%. Creating interactive web applications has never been easier-but that still doesn't mean it's hassle-free! The difficulty in ASP.NET 2.0 is that it's so complete and flexible that there are many pieces that must be woven together to build a robust, scalable, and efficient application. Fortunately, Programming ASP.NET, Third Edition is on the case, dispensing all the information you need to be effective with this dynamic tool. For starters, the book features a comprehensive tutorial on Web Forms, the user interface that gives web applications their look and feel. It then offers detailed explanations of all new controls, including web server controls, HTML controls, and custom controls. Used properly, these controls are able to take care of nearly all the foundation work-security, data access, layout, etc.-that you would normally have to write yourself. Free of these burdensome tasks, you can instead focus on your specific application. Other new material found in this updated edition even shows you how to create ASP.NET 2.0 pages for mobile devices. With Programming ASP.NET, Third Edition at your side, there's virtually no end to the programming possibilities.

Download or read book Professional ASP NET 3 5 Security Membership and Role Management with C and VB written by Bilal Haidar and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2009-04-03 with total page 940 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is intended for developers who are already familiar with and have a solid understanding of ASP.NET 1.1 and ASP.NET 2.0 security concepts, especially in the areas of forms authentication, page security, and website authorization. It assumes that you have a good understanding of the general functionality of Membership and Role Manager. It is also assumes that you have some familiarity working with ASP.NET AJAX 3.5. The book aims to “peel back the covers” of various ASP.NET security features so you can gain a deeper understanding of the security options available to you. Explaining the new IIS 7.0 and its Integrated mode of execution is also included in the book. This book was written using the .NET 3.5 Framework along with the .NET Framework SPI on both Windows Sever 2008 and Windows Vista. The sample code in the book has been verified to work with .NET 3.5 Framework and .NET 3.5 Framework SPI on Windows Vista. To run all of the samples in the book you will need the following: Windows Server 2008 or Windows Vista Internet Information Services 7.0 (IIS 7.0) Visual Studio 2008 RTM Either SQL Server 2000 or SQL Server 2005 A Window’s Sever 2008 domain running at Windows Server 2008 functional level This book covers many topics and areas in ASP.NET 2.0 and ASP.NET 3.5. It first introduces Internet Information Services 7.0 (IIS 7.0). It goes on to explain in detail the new IIS 7.0 Integrated mode of execution. Next, detailed coverage of how security is applied when the ASP.NET application starts up and when a request is processed in the newly introduced integrated request-processing pipeline is discussed. After this, the book branches out and begins to cover security information for features such as trust levels, forms authentication, page security, and session state. This will show you how you can benefit from the IIS 7.0 Integrated mode to make better use of ASP.NET features. You will also gain an understanding of the lesser known security features in ASP.NET 2.0 and ASP.NET 3.5. In chapter 10 the book changes direction and addresses two security services in ASP.NET 2.0 and ASP.NET 3.5: Membership and Role Manager. You will learn about the provider model that underlies each of these features. The internals of the feature are also discussed, as well as the SQL- and Active Directory-based providers included with them. The discussion of ASP.NET features is continued in chapter 17, which is dedicated to the ASP.NET AJAX 3.5 security integration with ASP.NET 3.5; it will also show how to authenticate and authorize users with JavaScript code written from the client-side. The book closes with a chapter about the best practices ASP.Net developers should follow to protect their applications from attack. Chapter 1 starts by refreshing ideas on application pools and worker processes. It later gets into the major components that make up IIS 7.0. Chapter 2 begins by introducing the advantages of the IIS 7.0 and ASP.NET integrated mode. Chapter 3 gives you a walkthrough of the security processing that both IIS 7.0 and ASP.NET perform in the integrated/unified request-processing pipeline. Chapter 4 defines what an ASP.NET trust level is and how ASP.NET trust levels work to provide secure environments for running web applications. Chapter 5 covers the security features in the 2.0 and 3.5 Frameworks’ configuration systems. Chapter 6 explains ASP.NET 2.0 and ASP.NET 3.5 features for forms authentication. Chapter 7 demonstrates using IIS 7.0 wildcard mappings and ASP.NET 2.0 and ASP.NET 3.5 support for wildcard mappings to share authentication and authorization information with Classic ASP applications. Chapter 8 covers security features and guidance for session state. Chapter 9 describes some lesser known page security features from ASP.NET 1.1 and describes how ASP.NET 2.0 and ASP.NET 3.5 options for securing viewstate and postback events. Chapter 10 gives you an architectural overview of the provider model in both ASP.NET 2.0 and ASP.NET 3.5. Chapter 11 talks about the Membership feature in ASP.NET 2.0 and ASP.NET 3.5 Chapter 12 delves into both the SqlMembershipProvider as well as general database design assumptions that are included in all of ASP.NET 2.0’s and ASP.NET 3.5’s SQL-based features. Chapter 13 covers other membership provider that ships in ASP.NET 2.0 and ASP.NET 3.5-ActiveDirectoryMembershipProvider. Chapter 14 describes the Role Manager feature that provides built-in authorization support for ASP.NET 2.0 and ASP.NET 3.5. Chapter 15 discusses the SqlRoleProvider and its underlying SQL schema. Chapter 16 covers the AuthorizationStoreRoleProvider, which is a provider that maps Role Manager functionality to the Authorization Manager. Chapter 17 discusses how ASP.NET AJAX 3.5 integrates with ASP.NET 3.5 Membership and Role management features through newly introduced web services. Chapter 18 covers the best practices that can be followed to secure ASP.NET applications.

This book was released on 2010-11-19 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Wrox Blox empowers developers to develop ASP.NET AJAX controls by giving them a look "under the hood" of AJAX controls. While this Wrox Blox focuses on Visual Studio 2008 and .NET 3.5, developers should know that the concepts for creating custom controls in Visual Studio 2005 and .NET 2.0 with ASP.NET AJAX 1.0 are very similar. Visual Studio 2008 offers many improvements concerning JavaScript editing/debugging, and .NET 3.5 includes ASP.NET AJAX right out of the box, simplifying the install to get AJAX up and running. This Wrox Blox takes developers gradually through creating a custom ASP.NET AJAX control. JavaScript is essential for writing ASP.NET AJAX controls, but quite a few developers still struggle in this area. Given this fact, this Wrox Blox takes a compressive look at JavaScript and the improvements that the Microsoft AJAX Library provides to client-side development, giving readers the skills they need to delve straight into creating a “news scroller” type control from start to finish with step-by-step instructions throughout.
