XML.NET Developer's Guide

With the development of Microsoft's .NET initiative, industry experts are predicting a new dawn in the age of web development and services. This new strategy specifically addresses the need for common ways to develop server-based applications whose clients can be any system that has Internet access. By using .NET technologies and practices, developers can build solutions that aggregate services from all over the Internet. This promises to save time and money in development, promote the growth of new technology partnerships, and extend what's currently possible for Internet applications.

The .NET Framework has the potential to transform the Internet from a collection of isolated Web sites into e-business networks in which companies can more easily form alliances to deliver personalized services to customers. The Microsoft .NET programming model is designed to allow the integration and interoperability of any group of resources on the Internet into one single solution.
Making all of this possible is the World Wide Web Consortium's Extensible Markup Language (XML).

Often touted as the new 'lingua franca' of the internet, XML will allow developers to free information from its presentational prison and give their site and services a new flexibility. Developers will be able to present information that can be organized, programmed and edited while ensuring that this information is efficiently distributed to a variety of digital devices. The .NET framework uses XML to achieve greater flexibility of information and increased interoperability. This book will show developers how to implement XML within the .NET framework.

隨著微軟的.NET計畫的發展，行業專家預測網頁開發和服務的新時代即將來臨。這個新策略特別關注開發基於伺服器的應用程式的共同方式，這些應用程式的客戶端可以是任何具有網際網路訪問的系統。通過使用.NET技術和實踐，開發人員可以構建從網際網路上聚合服務的解決方案。這有望在開發中節省時間和金錢，促進新技術合作夥伴關係的增長，並擴展目前網際網路應用程式的可能性。

.NET框架有潛力將網際網路從一個孤立的網站集合轉變為企業網絡，企業可以更容易地結成聯盟，向客戶提供個性化服務。微軟.NET編程模型旨在允許將網際網路上的任何一組資源集成和互操作為一個解決方案。

使所有這些成為可能的是世界廣泛網絡聯盟的可擴展標記語言（XML）。

XML常被吹捧為互聯網的新“通用語言”，它將使開發人員能夠從目前的呈現方式中釋放信息，為他們的網站和服務提供新的靈活性。開發人員將能夠呈現可以組織、編程和編輯的信息，同時確保這些信息高效地分發到各種數字設備上。.NET框架使用XML實現信息的更大靈活性和增加的互操作性。本書將向開發人員展示如何在.NET框架中實施XML。
