just wanna do a quick poll here, what is the best book for .NET
programming
in general for people migrating from VC++ 6?
One of the important things added to .NET applications is it's security.
Unless you create only one executable that runs only on your local computer,
you need to understand this security.
The book ".NET Framework Security " (Addison Wesley) gives a pretty good
understanding.
Because I wanted to learn .NET programming first without the additional
complexity of VC++ .NET, I started to learn C# because that is a native .NET
language and I figured out, that once I understand C# then I can use the
knowledge in VC++ too. I use the book "C# and the .NET Framework: The C++
Perspective" (Sams Publishing) for that.
And the rest the online msdn web sites...
