Network Programming for Microsoft Windows

Jones A., Ohlund J.0735605602, 9780735605602

To support the expansive community of developers distributing their Windows-based solutions over networks, this book provides critical-and, until now, distinctly underdocumented-information on Microsoft’s networking APIs. Produced by windows netwroking insiders, this guide provides definitive reference to the network programming interfaces available on the Windows 98, Windows NT(r)/2000, and Windows CE platforms. Developers get clear, detailed, and up-to-date coverage of Winsock 2, RAS, NetBIOS, TCP/IP, and other technologies, including a preview of QOS and IP Helper-two of the new networking features in the pending release of Windows 2000-as well as hard-to-find documentation for older legacy APIs. Throughout, the authors emphasize putting the information to work-providing practical, platform-specific information and ready code examples to accelerate productivity.
