C++Builder 6 Developer's Guide is a comprehensive
guide to developing applications using the latest version
of C++Builder. This version makes it easy to develop
applications with any level of complexity and includes
support for the latest technologies such as XML, SOAP, and
CORBA/DataSnap for multi-tier application development.
Readers will also learn about the WebBroker and WebSnap
architectures; the Visual Component Library and the
Component Library for Cross-platform development; the
dbExpress and CORBA frameworks; and implementing SOAP-based
web services with the BizSnap architecture.
"[This book] is a critical undertaking that describes the
latest features of C++Builder 6 ... in a no-nonsense,
easy-to-read fashion. Each chapter presents a conceptual
overview of what each technology was designed to do, how
it's used in a real-world application, and how you can
easily incorporate the functionality into new or existing
projects via C++Builder's rapid application development
framework. Whether you've just started programming with
C++Builder, or you're a veteran BCB
developer, this book
will provide you with the key concepts and technical
know-how required to solve today's data-driven and
web-based problems."

"This book will certainly be helpful to C++ users, both
new and well-versed, in taking up C++Builder. It will serve
as a handy road map of how to use C++Builder to its best
advantage in application development. I really wish there
were more books like this available."
