4.0 out of 5 stars A must buy for "Advanced" Developers!, November 2, 1999

Michael Matthews (matthemx@mail.milwaukee.k12... - See all my reviews

This review is from: Distributed Application Development with PowerBuilder 6.0 (Powerbuilder Developer's Library) (Paperback)

Distributed Application Development with PowerBuilder 6 is dedicated to distributed application development in the PowerBuilder environment. It focuses on Distributed PowerBuilder. This text is packed with code samples to guide you every step of the way. Also included is a robust server framework I have used on real-world projects. A "must buy" for anyone preparing to go to the next level of PB development!

5.0 out of 5 stars This book is terrific!, October 8, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Distributed Application Development with PowerBuilder 6.0 (Powerbuilder Developer's Library) (Paperback)

If you are a Powerbuilder Guru, you must read this book, otherwise you'd take the risk to know less than your apprentices. If you are a novice, you must read it to become a Guru. Don't loose time with me, go to buy one!

5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Book For Learning Distributed PowerBuilder, March 19, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Distributed Application Development with PowerBuilder 6.0 (Powerbuilder Developer's Library) (Paperback)

A wonderful book that finally fills in the gap left open by most other PowerBuilder books. The first few chapters give a great overview of distributed powerbuilder. From there the book goes on to give an indepth description of how distributed computing relates to PowerBuilder. Code examples are given constantly throughout the book so that you can see what exactly is going on in the author's head. The book concludes with chapters that deal with intergrating PowerBuilder with Jaquar and COM. A must read for PowerBuilder developers who are looking to make the leap from Client/Server to Distributed Computing.
