Books Info!!

[kgadia]

Hi friends,

I am due to start a new project involving delegates and threading in C#
2.0.

I am looking to buy some books covering both the topics in depth. It
may well be books devoted to each of the topics separately or together.
I don't really mind.

Any other pointers to useful resources would be greatly welcome.

Many thanks and regards
Keshav

Here is a repeat of a response from a couple of weeks ago I wrote for someone
else, with some additions.

I can recommend several books that will get you working with 2.0 faster.

For a quick look at the basic differences, there is "Visual C# 2005 A
Developer's Notebook", by Jesse Liberty. Just what is says a workbook, but
will give you a quick look at the basic differences. <addition> This one
won't help with your topics. </addition>

For a REALLY good how-to, I recommend "Practical .NET2 and C#2" by Patrick
Smacchia. VERY good. <addition> DEFINITELY GET THIS ONE. A very good
book for work with delegates, and also some good info with threads.
</addition>

For what is going on "under the covers", take a look at "CLR via C#" by
Jeffrey Richter. Extremely good book, especially covers working with
strings, generics, differences between types, and exceptions very well.

<addition> I've also found Andrew Troelsen's book, "Pro C# 2005 and the .NET
2.0 Platform", VERY useful, and he does a great job with both your topics.

Damn, smth wrong with me
Not generics

see
1) Manning - .NET Multithreading
2) CSharp Threading Handbook

but they are for .net 1.1
I've never seen smth .net 2.0 specific.

Joe Duffy(CLR PM) going to publish his .net 2.0 multithreading book in 2007
