Well, I’m back at it on Friday with a couple more webcasts. For those who’ve checked out the other series I’ve worked on (SQL Masterclass and SQL BI Quickstart), you might see a trend with these new ones I’m doing. They finish off an existing series of webcasts aimed for the application developer who is working with SQL Server.
The first one – SQL 2005 Essentials – Enhancements to the SQLClient Data Provider talks about what is new for the developer in terms of SQL Client compared to traditional access via MDAC. We’re covering SNAC, MARS, Notification, Dependencies, Bulk Copy and more. I’ve got a bunch of code examples in both VB and C#, as well as the SQL script needed (we’re using AdventureWorks again)…This is available on the downloads page from which registered users can get the code and see for themselves how it works.
The other– SQL 2005 Essentials – ADO.NET 2.0 is a webcast that dives into new features of the new interface, discusses this new model, which includes provider registration, provider factories, data source enumerators, connection string handling, generalized schema handling, and provider and SQL network stack tracingdiscusses this new model, which includes provider registration, provider factories, data source enumerators, connection string handling, generalized schema handling, and provider and SQL network stack tracing... I’ll be posting the code for this one in the near future.
Hope you can join us. I assure you it should be a lot of fun…
Happy Coding!
