Overview

COBOL and .NET: application migration, design, implementation, and deployment.

COBOL for .NET: design, coding, and deployment
Migrating legacy COBOL code to Web environments using
Fujitsu(r) COBOL for .NET
Developing COBOL applications with Visual Studio.NET
Maximizing application efficiency and performance

Now that COBOL is being integrated into Microsoft's .NET platform and Visual Studio.NET toolset, developers have a powerful way to bring their COBOL expertise into the Web-enabled future. In this book, long-time Windows programming expert Dr. Ronald Reeves gives developers comprehensive guidance for writing new COBOL code for .NET environments, and migrating existing COBOL code to the .NET platform. Reeves begins by introducing the .NET framework and Visual Studio.NET development environment from the COBOL programmer's standpoint. Next, he covers every key aspect of COBOL development for .NET, including:

Providing interoperability between legacy "unmanaged" code and .NET managed code
Building next-generation Web services and applications using ASP.NET and WebForms
Leveraging SOAP and the Web Services Description Language (SOAP)
WinForms: Integrating COBOL software with powerful Windows client user interfaces
Building COBOL-based database applications with ADO.NET
Object-oriented COBOL programming using .NET extensions
Designing COBOL.NET applications for maximum efficiency and performance
