CLR via C# by Jeffrey Richter


Posted Date: 29 Apr 2008    Resource Type: Book Reviews    Category: .NET Framework

Rating:     Points: 10



This book is an expert guidance from well-known programming author Jeff Richter about the CLR and the .NET Framework 2.0. Jeffrey shares the insights direct from the Microsoft .NET development team and his own real-world expertise with extensive code examples in Visual C#.

Most .NET programming books are language centric. The capabilities of the CLR are implied based on the description of the language. Jeffery Richter's book is CLR centric. It describes what the CLR can do and how it does it. C# is used to provide practical examples of how to direct the CLR.

The book is oriented toward experienced programmers. It provides an introduction to the CLR and describes some intermediate topics in detail. Advanced topics are mentioned, but the coverage of advanced topics (such as CLR hosting) is shallow.

If you are an experienced programmer who is new to the CLR and C#, this is a great text. If you already understand the CLR and are looking for more information about advanced techniques, this book is probably not for you.

The factual content is quite useful, and most other books don't even come close to this. In addition to the facts, Jeff injects some of his opinion. An experienced developer will recognize these segments as opinion and reconcile that with the realities of their own work environment.

I say, This Book is a MUST READ book for all .Net Developers

This book actually talks about below

• Build, deploy, administer, and version applications, components, and shared assemblies
• Design types using constants, fields, constructors, methods, properties, and events
• Work effectively with the CLR’s special types including enumerators, arrays, and strings
• Declare, create, and use delegates to expose callback functions
• Define and employ re-usable algorithms with interfaces and generics
• Define, use, and detect custom attributes
• Use exception handling to build robust, reliable, and security-enhanced components
• Manage memory automatically with the garbage collector and work with native resources
• Apply CLR Hosting, AppDomains, assembly loading, and reflection to build dynamically extensible applications

The book actually talk about CLR in 5 parts

The book starts with Part 1 which covers basics of the CLR execution model, application building, packaging, deployment, administration, assemblies and strong naming.

Focus is on how .NET Framework is designed, what the terms surrounding .NET Framework mean and defining what it includes when you build and deploy a .NET application.

Part 2 describes the type system and explains the distinction between primitive, reference and value types.

Focus is on what types in .NET Framework have as minimum set of behaviors and how do types, objects, thread stacks and managed heap relate to one another.

Part 3 covers the fundamentals behind designing types and members which constitute a type.

Type and member basics, constants and fields, methods, properties and events are covered in great detail.

Designing types using constants, fields, constructors, methods, properties.

Part 4 covers working with essential types in .NET Framework. These include chars and strings, enumerated types and bit flags, arrays, interfaces, delegates, generics, custom attributes and nullable types.

Focus is on what these are from CLR and .NET perspective and how do you get the most out of them.

Part 5 covers CLR facilities such as exceptions, automatic memory management(Garbage collection and Dispose pattern), CLR hosting and AppDomains, assembly loading and reflection, asynchronous operations and thread synchronization.

Focus is on describing mechanics behind these CLR facilities and what they do to ease life of a .NET developer.
