| Build an XML Serialized Object |
| Visual Studio Magazine |
| Almost every Web application needs to store global configuration settings. Traditional Active Server Pages (ASP) Web applications often stored this data in a database. However, database storage has drawbacks: It's terribly inefficient to query the database each time you need to retrieve a setting, and some data, such as your database connection string, isn't appropriate for storage in a database. Many developers try to get around these two caveats by storing settings in Application variables initialized in the global.asa file. The problem with this approach is that changing the value of one of these Application variables in the global.asa file forces the entire ASP application to reload, leading to periods of downtime. |

| 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. |

| Inside WSDL with .NET Attribution |
| MSDN |
| Understanding how a Web Services Definition Language (WSDL) file describes your Web service is the key to understanding how XML Web services work in general. Demystify the Web Service Description Language (WSDL) files that Microsoft ASP.NET generates by examining the seven major elements that compose a WSDL file, and learn techniques for altering the generated WSDL by using the attributes available within the System.Web.Services, System.Web.Services.Protocols, and the System.Xml.Serialization namespaces. |

| Map CLR Objects To XML Docs |
| Visual Studio Magazine |
| XML has its own type system based on XML Schema (XSD). The CLR type system is not based on XML Schema. The System.Xml.Serialization library allows XSD types to be mapped to CLR types in a relatively customizable way. |

| Moving to .NET and Web Services |
| MSDN |
| As you may have guessed from looking at the top of this page, the House of COM column that appeared in the May 2001 issue was my last column on COM (I have already started the bidding war on eBay for that soon-to-be-collector's edition). Dedicated readers may have noticed that I haven't been using the column to write about COM per se for some time. Rather, for the past three years, my work has been shifting to encompass other software integration/component technologies, such as the Common Language Runtime (CLR), ISAPI, XML, SOAP, and Web Services.

| Object Serialization and OO Techniques |
| Visual Studio Magazine |
| XML Serialization presents an excellent mechanism for working with XML documents in an object-oriented manner. In the June/July issue I discussed how using XML serialization in the IBuySpy Portal site (www.ibuyspy.com) simplified working with configuration files (see Links). Now I'll demonstrate how to leverage XML serialization techniques to manipulate the web.config file using object-oriented techniques rather than the Document Object Model (DOM). |

| Object Serialization in Visual Basic .NET |
| MSDN |
| When building applications using objects, we are often faced with the requirement to treat all the various data within an object as a single unit. This comes into play, for instance, when you want to pass an object across the network—since you don't want to send each individual bit of object data one at a time across the network, but rather, all at once. |
