5.0 out of 5 stars
Pretend it's not a Delphi book and you have a winner,
By A Customer
This review is from: Building Internet Applications With Delphi 2 (Paperback)
I've been using this book for 8 months. I don't use the winsock code because there are higher level OCX controls to do the job. The real value of this book is in the theory. Don't go searching for those long RFCs. Appendix A and B has become my bible for the SMTP and NNTP protocols. The scenarios presented in the examples throughout the book, helped me understand the stages of a session between the server and client. You won't get too much Delphi-specific info but as long as the various TCP/IP protocols are in use, this book is a classic

A book for the thinking programmer,
By A Customer
This review is from: Building Internet Applications With Delphi 2 (Paperback)
I'm using the book at work to write network applications. Unlike some books, this book does not spoon feed you. You have to get your hands dirty and actually write programs yourself. I've found that to get the best out of the book, you have to read a chapter, study the code, then try and write the thing yourself. My only gripe is that some of the authors programs on my disk don't work, ie FTP Client in chapter 8. So what, it forced me to write my own. Love it!

Good theory, but not so good programming practice,
By A Customer
This review is from: Building Internet Applications With Delphi 2 (Paperback)
This book explains very good the theory behind the
different protocols, but it is a little too much like
a C programming book.
