Developing C# Apps for iPhone and iPad using MonoTouch: iOS Apps Development for .NET Developers

Developing C# Apps for iPhone and iPad using MonoTouch: iOS Apps Development for .NET Developers shows you how to use your existing C# skills to write apps for the iPhone and iPad. Fortunately, there’s MonoTouch, Novell’s .NET library that allows C# developers to write C# code that executes in iOS. Furthermore, MonoTouch allows you to address all the unique functions of the iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad. And the big plus: You needn’t learn any Objective-C to master MonoTouch!

Former Microsoft engineer and published app-store developer Bryan Costanich shows you how to use the tools you already know to create native apps in iOS using C# and the .NET Base Class Libraries. The magic is in Novell’s implementation of Apple’s Cocoa libraries in MonoTouch. You’ll master the same elegant and rich Cocoa environment, but without the need to learn a new programming language.

Developing C# Apps for iPhone and iPad using MonoTouch: iOS Apps Development for .NET Developers takes you from your first “Hello, World” example through the major APIs and features of iOS. The coverage is comprehensive and makes use of frequent examples, complete with sample code you can download and reuse to create your own powerful and playful apps. A guide for .NET developers to turn their C# apps into blockbusters for iOS using MonoTouch.

Beginning C# Object-Oriented Programming

Beginning C# Object-Oriented Programming brings you into the modern world of development as you master the fundamentals of programming with C# and learn to develop efficient, reusable, elegant code through the object-oriented programming (OOP) methodology. Take your skills out of the 20th century and into this one with Dan Clark’s accessible, quick-paced guide to C# and object-oriented programming, completely updated for .NET 4.0 and C# 4.0.

As you develop techniques and best practices for coding in C#, one of the world’s most popular contemporary languages, you’ll experience modeling a “real world” application through a case study, allowing you to see how both C# and OOP (a methodology you can use with any number of languages) come together to make your code reusable, modern, and efficient.

With more than 30 fully hands-on activities, you’ll discover how to transform a simple model of an application into a fully-functional C# project, including designing the user interface, implementing the business logic, and integrating with a relational database for data storage. Along the way, you will explore the .NET Framework, the creation of a Windows-based user interface, a web-based user interface, and service-oriented programming, all using Microsoft’s industry-leading Visual Studio 2010, C#, Silverlight, the Entity Framework, and more.
