TitleVBUG UK 2003 Talk: VB .NET and XML
KeywordsXML, serialize, deserialize, serialization
CategoriesTutorials
 
This is a talk I presented at the 2003 VBUG UK user's group conference. It's a huge presentation and I did not intend to cover it all in the talk. Download it here and look it over. Special features of the talk include:

  • Hidden Slides providing extra detail not covered in the talk
  • Presenter Notes that provide lots of details
  • 11 Example Programs demonstrating key points in the talk

Topics include:

  • What is XML?
  • DOM (Document Object Model). Includes wrapper classes for node creation.
  • Forward-Only XML
    • XmlTextWriter
    • XmlTextReader
    • SAX (Simple API for XML)
  • Serialization including serializing images in binary and text.

These zips do not include the executables so the links in the PowerPoint presentation won't work unless you compile the examples and save the EXEs in a Bin directory below where you run the presentation. It's easier just to run the examples in VB .NET.

Email me if you want all three presentations from this conference on CD-ROM.

Also let me know if you find mistakes.
