Ebook: Inside Server-Based Applications

INSIDE SERVER-BASED APPLICATIONS is the best place to find detailed instructions about how to bring the application layer to the server, support thin and streamlined clients, and move legacy applications to Web-based delivery systems. The book begins with a review of the basics of server-side development, then explains how Microsoft(r) Windows(r) 2000 supports server-side development, with coverage of Win32 APIs including service APIs, RAS, TAPI, MAPI, ODBC, Active Server Pages, and ISAPI. It concisely explains each API and uses examples to demonstrate its proper and improper uses. It also demonstrates how to bring all these server-side pieces together, discusses Microsoft BackOffice(r) integration, and presents server-side code examples in Microsoft Visual C++(r) and client-side code examples in VBScript.
