This book is about using Python to get jobs done on Windows.This intended to be a practical book focused on tasks. It doesn t aim to teach Python programming, although we do provide a brief tutorial. Instead, it aims to cover:How Python works on Windows The key integration technologies supported by Python on Windows, such as the Win32 extensions, which let you call the Windows API, and the support for COM Examples in many Topic areas showing what Python can do and how to put it to work.
Readers can pick up this book and become familiar with C++ in a short time. Stan has taken a very broad and complicated Topic and reduced it to the essentials that budding C++ programmers need to know to write real programs. His case study is effective and provides a familiar thread throughout the book.
This book is the definitive guide to EJB 3.0 persistence technology. The authors provide unparalleled insight and expertise on this Topic, fully examining and explaining EJB 3.0B
This submission includes the presentation and model files that were used in delivering a webinar on 12-15-05 that covered the Topic of modeling Hybrid Electric Vehicles.
Hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) have proven they can substantially improve fuel economy and reduce emissions. Because HEVs combine an electric drive with the internal combustion engine (ICE) in the powertrain, the vehicle?s kinetic energy can be captured during braking and transformed into electrical energy in the battery. The dual power source also means that the ICE can be reduced in size and can operate at its most efficient speeds.
This the fourth edition of the Writing Device Drivers articles. This article will introduce the idea of device stacks and how devices interact with each other. We will use the previously created example device driver to demonstrate this Topic. To do this we will introduce the idea of a “filter” driver in which we will create to attach to our own driver’s device stack.
This the second tutorial of the Writing Device Drivers series. There seems to be a lot of interest in the Topic, so this article will pick up where the first left off. The main focus of these articles will be to build up little by little the knowledge needed to write device drivers. In this article, we will be building on the same example source code used in part one. In this article, we will expand on that code to include Read functionality, Handle Input/Ouput Controls also known as IOCTLs, and learn a bit more about IRPs.
The Ruby Way takes a "how-to" approach to Ruby programming with the bulk of the material consisting of more than 400 examples arranged by Topic. Each example answers the question "How do I do this in Ruby?" Working along with the author, you are presented with the task description and a discussion of the technical constraints. This is followed by a step-by-step presentation of one good solution. Along the way, the author provides detailed commentary and explanations to aid your understanding.
This book is for you if
You re no "dummy," and you need to get quickly up to speed in intermediate to advanced C++
You ve had some experience in C++ programming, but reading intermediate and advanced C++ books is slow-going
You ve had an introductory C++ course, but you ve found that you still can t follow your colleagues when they re describing their C++ designs and code
You re an experienced C or Java programmer, but you don t yet have the experience to develop nuanced C++ code and designs
You re a C++ expert, and you re looking for an alternative to answering the same questions from your less-experienced colleagues over and over again
C++ Common Knowledge covers essential but commonly misunderstood Topics in C++ programming and design while filtering out needless complexity in the discussion of each Topic. What remains is a clear distillation of the essentials required for production C++ programming, presented in the author s trademark incisive, engaging style.
