SQL Server CE Database Development with the .NET Compact Framework is the only book of its kind for developers wishing to examine in detail all aspects of SQL Server CE 2.0 and the .NET Compact Framework, the most significantly updated area of Visual Studio 2003.
Featuring in-depth information on SQL Server CE 2.0 and the .NET Compact Framework, this book illustrates how both Visual Basic .NET and C# can be used to build powerful database applications for the Pocket PC. While other .NET Compact Framework books try to broadly cover general programming issues, this book focuses strictly on database application development.
The .NET Compact Framework brings the world of managed code and XML Web services to smart devices, and it enables the execution of secure, downloadable applications on devices such as personal digital assistants (PDAs), mobile phones, and set-top boxes.
The Definitive Guide to the .NET Compact Framework targets both first-time and experienced mobile developers, and is a comprehensive guide to building mobile applications using the .NET Compact Framework (CF) and Smart Device Extensions (SDE) for Visual Studio .NET. Expert authors Larry Roof and Dan Fergus provide developers with everything they need to produce robust applications, including how to create effective user interfaces, work with device-based data sources, access enterprise data, leverage Web services, incorporate XML into applications, build help systems, and generate setup routines.
