COM+ Unleashed Summary

COM+ Unleashed by Richard Leinecker

COM+ Unleashed provides a complete understanding of how to build and implement COM components, focusing on using COM +. This book shows readers how to build COM objects and encapsulate their functionality, use distributed COM to build client/server and Web-based enterprise applications, enhance applications with distributed services (MTS, MSMQ), fully utilize the COM+ model to enhance their productivity and to create highly flexible and powerful applications, and encapsulate business logic into COM objects. Readers will learn how to apply the COM+ model creatively and effectively to solve everyday programming problems, enhance the efficiency and functionality of their enterprise applications and build sophisticated distributed applications. Most components available today are written in C++, thus our examples and programs follow suit.
