A Very Nice Pocket Reference, February 22 2007
I've found this little book to be very useful. I'm in the process of learning C#. When I'm looking to do something, but am not sure what the exact syntax is or, hell, if it's possible: I'll flip through this book.
This book is what it bills itself as: a "Pocket Reference." It's function is to be a concise and streamlined C# reference document.
If want to read-up on C#, but don't want to plunk down the cash for a larger How-To volume, then I would suggest using C# Language Pocket Reference as a road-map to the more fleshed-out information on the MSDN site.
Beginning this book and the birds...fly in the C#, September 30 2006
It wants to learn semantic the necessary ones to construct its applications. You not yet know for where to start? Then, it is its way here. This book made me to remember of many details that are making my pupils to learn the .NET better
C# Language Pocket Reference Review, September 21 2003
The general language coverage is very good. Very disappointed in the ADO section. It's like someone else wrote the ADO section. The examples do NOT give a good example of how the objects work together. One single diagram would help. Explaining the general functionlity and then creating a DataAccess object would have been much better...
On page 391, we have just made a web service and are creating a CONSOLE app to test it (?). The text mentions to get the address of the web service DLL because "you will need it when you build the client application". Then, in the client application there is NO REFERENCE TO THE DLL ADDRESS. THE CODE DOES NOT COMPILE. I had to go the MSDN to find out what to do.
C# Language Pocket Reference Review, August 09 2003
This is a great little reference book, but I did not buy it.
Why ?
Well, I spent 15 minutes in the bookstore going through it page-by-page and could not find any coverage on class inheritance !!!
What's up with that ? Please include a section on inheritance, just as you have a section on interfaces!
Great book otherwise..
C# Language Pocket Reference Review, March 12 2003
Informative and well organized. Good TOC. Includes an index, which is a very nice feature missing in most O'Reilly pocket references (at least the ones I have). Doesn't cover C# documentation comments, eg, summary. Attributes are not covered very well.
TIP: If you're thinking of buying the VB.NET Language Pocket Reference, DON'T. See my review of that book. I recommend C# and VB.NET Conversion Pocket Reference instead.

"[Consumers] will find the fine 'pocket references' produced by O'Reilly to be compact and affordable."
-- James Cox, The Computer Shelf: Midwest Book Review
"This book is well worth the price and an experienced programmer looking to evaluate C# could do a lot worse than this book. Most of the material is exactly what a pocket reference should be and there is no pointless 'page-filling' reference material."
--Peter Sheehan, The Assayer, Feb 2003
