In this book, you will find a number of styles of text that distinguish between different kinds of information. Here are some examples of these styles, and an explanation of their meaning.
Code words in text are shown as follows: "At this point, we will use the raw SqlClient
adapter to do the database work."
A block of code will be set as follows:
[DataContract] public class ProductFault { public ProductFault(string msg) { FaultMessage = msg; } [DataMember] public string FaultMessage; }
When we wish to draw your attention to a particular part of a code block, the relevant lines or items will be made bold:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<configuration>
<appSettings>
<add key="NorthwindConnectionString"
value="server=your_db_serveryour_db_instance;
uid=your_user_name; pwd=your_password;
database=Northwind"/>
</appSettings>
<system.web>
<compilation debug="true" />
</system.web>
New terms and important words are introduced in bold-type font. Words that you see on the screen, in menus or dialog boxes for example, appear in our text like this: "clicking the Next button moves you to the next screen".
Tips and tricks appear like this.
