Developer’s Guide to Microsoft® Enterprise Library 5, Visual Basic® Edition
Welcome to the era of software reuse! Microsoft Enterprise Library helps accelerate development by providing reusable components and guidance on proven practices. If you build applications that run on the Microsoft .NET Framework, whether they are enterprise-level business applications or even relatively modest Windows® Forms, Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF), Windows Communication Foundation (WCF), or ASP.NET applications, you can benefit from using Enterprise Library. This guide helps you to quickly grasp what Enterprise Library can do for you, presents examples, and makes it easier for you to start experimenting with Enterprise Library. Enterprise Library is made up of a series of application blocks, each aimed at managing specific cross-cutting concerns.
The guide will walk you through the most common usage scenarios for each of the functional application blocks, including:
Improving performance by utilizing a local in-memory or isolated storage cache.
Calling into your database stored procedures and managing the results exposed as a sequence of objects for client side querying.
Incorporating cryptography mechanisms to protect your data.
Designing and implementing a consistent strategy for managing exceptions that occur in various architectural layers of your application.
Implementing system logging through the wide variety of out-of-the box logging sinks or your custom provider.
Performing structured and easy-to-maintain validation using attributes and rules sets.
The guide also demonstrates various ways of configuring Enterprise Library blocks. Let Enterprise Library do the heavy lifting for you and spend more time focusing on your business logic and less on application plumbing.
Develop Enterprise applications using reusable software components of Microsoft Enterprise Library 5.0
Develop Enterprise Applications using the Enterprise Library Application Blocks
Set up the initial infrastructure configuration of the Application Blocks using the configuration editor
A step-by-step tutorial to gradually configure each Application Block and implement its functions to develop the required Enterprise Application
In Detail
Microsoft Enterprise Library is a collection of reusable software components (also known as Application Blocks) that are designed to assist developers with common enterprise development challenges. Before using an Application block, you should have a good understanding of your application requirements and of the scenarios that the Application Block is designed to address.
This book covers the fundamental elements of each Application Block so that you get a good understanding of its concepts. This is followed by referencing the required and optional assemblies and the initial configuration of that block using the configuration editor. Finally, leverage Application Block features to achieve goals of the enterprise application development.
