| A Suite of Cryptographic Objects Part 2: Implementing Key Exchange Over a Network |
| C#Today |
| Throughout the whole history of Cryptography one element has continually created the most difficulty: Key Exchange. In this article, Richard Conway looks at the idea and implementation of Key Exchange over a network, bringing together the elements that we have discussed so far in the previous article (with respect to symmetric key cryptography) and also introduces concepts of public key cryptography. We demonstrate the use of this by creating a secure chat application. |

| ADO .NET for the ADO Programmer |
| MSDN |
| ADO .NET is the latest in a long line of database access technologies that began with the Open Database Connectivity (ODBC) application programming interface (API) several years ago. Along the way, a number of interesting things happened. For example, COM landed at the database territory and started a colonization process that culminated with OLE DB. Next, ActiveX® Data Objects (ADO)—roughly an automation version of OLE DB—has been elected to govern the Visual Basic® and ASP community of Windows®-based database developers. |

| An Event to Remember |
| MSDN |
| Last month, we talked about performance and boxing. One of the questions that came up from a reader was why the Perl version is so much faster than the C# version. One answer is that Perl is very good at what it does. One reader pointed out that I had forgotten to tell the Regex to compile the regular expression rather than interpret it on every match. In Beta 1, this is done by passing "c" as the second parameter to the Regex constructor (there's an enum to do the same thing in Beta 2). This cuts the overhead nearly in half, and reduces the elapsed time for the fastest version down to a little less than 7 seconds. |

| Choosing Among File I/O Options in Visual Basic .NET |
| MSDN |
| This article is aimed at the Visual Basic programmer who may be confused by the multiplicity of ways to approach file I/O in Visual Basic .NET. Available alternatives include the methods provided in the Visual Basic .NET runtime, the FileSystemObject, and the methods furnished in the common language runtime. Upon completion, the experienced developer will be familiar with all three and will be equipped to make choices among them. |

| Creating COM+ Aware Components in .NET |
| Bipin Joshi |
| COM+ provides many middleware services like increased scalability, Transactions, object pooling, Just-In-Time activation to your components. Enterprise components typically developed in VC++ or VB are often hosted in COM+ to gain above advantages. As you might be aware that .NET components are different than traditional COM components in terms of reference counting, memory management and registration. |

| Exposing Proprietary Data the .NET Way |
| MSDN |
| The .NET Framework comes with the OLE DB managed provider, which is meant to be a bridge that gives you immediate access to all the existing OLE DB providers. This component saves your current investments, as applications can continue successfully calling into existing OLE DB providers. The point, though, is another. In .NET, exposing proprietary data requires a more thoughtful choice, mostly because you have multiple and equally powerful options from which to choose.

| FileSystemInfo Class in C# and VB.NET for beginners |
| devCity.NET |
| One of the rich experiences in working with .NET is a huge collection of Base Class Libraries. The .NET Framework class library is a library of classes, interfaces, and value types that are included in the Microsoft .NET Framework SDK. This library provides access to system functionality and is designed to be the foundation on which .NET Framework applications, components, and controls are built. |
