C# Deconstructed: Discover how C# works on the .NET Framework
by Mohammad RahmanC# Deconstructed answers a seemingly simply question: Just what is going on, exactly, when you run C# code on the . NET Framework? To answer this question we will dig ever deeper into the structure of the C# language and the onion-skin abstraction layers of the . NET Framework that underpins it. We'll follow the execution thread downwards, first to MSIL (Microsoft Intermediate Language) then down through just-in-time compilation into Machine Code before finally seeing the results executed at the hardware level. The aim of this deep-dive is to provide you with a much more rounded knowledge of the environment within which you code exists. As a managed language, it's best-practice to let the Framework deal with device interaction but you'll find the experience of taking the cover off once in a while a very rewarding one that will greatly enrich your appreciate of the C# language and the way in which in functions. What you'll learn Understand how C# handles your filesystem requests and passes them down to hard disks and memory Learn how RAM works and how programs map to address spaces Discover the C# compilation sequence in detail and follow it down from abstract code to actual function See how your device's micro-processor executes Machine Code and just-in-time compilation provides it when it's needed Learn how the Common Language Runtime (CLR) determines the execution of your code and handles Threading and Scheduling for your instructions Who this book is for This book is ideal for anyone who works with C# and has ever wondered what happens after they press F5. Table of Contents Anatomy of the C# compilation stack Data Access, Files and Storage Understanding Memory Usage The C# Compilation Sequence From CIL to Machine Code Execution through the CLR Execution Model II

C# Graphics Programming
by Rod StephensThis Wrox Blox teaches you how to add graphics to C# 2008 applications, explaining fundamental graphics techniques such as: drawing shapes with different colors and line styles; filling areas with colors, gradients, and patterns; drawing text that is properly aligned, sized, and clipped exactly where you want it; manipulating images and saving results in bitmap, JPEG, and other types of files. Also covered are instructions for how to greatly increase your graphics capabilities using transformations. Transformations allow you to move, stretch, or rotate graphics. They also let you work in coordinate systems that make sense for your application. You will also learn how to use all of these techniques in printouts. The author describes the sequence of events that produce a printout and shows how to generate and preview printouts.The final sections describe two powerful new graphic tools that were introduced with .NET Framework 3.0: WPF graphics and FlowDocuments. WPF applications can use XAML graphic commands to declaratively draw and fill the same kinds of shapes that a program can draw by using graphics objects.Finally, a discussion on the FlowDocument object shows you how to define items that should be flowed across multiple pages as space permits. This lets you display text, graphics, controls, and other items that automatically flow across page breaks. FlowDocument viewers make displaying these documents easy for you, and simplifies the user's reading of the documents.This Wrox Blox also contains 35 example programs written in C# 2008, although most of the code works in previous versions of C# as well. The most notable exceptions are WPF graphics and FlowDocuments, both of which require WPF provided in .NET Framework 3.0 and later.
