Visual Studio 2022, C# i .NET. Programowanie kontrolek
Nie trzeba siedzieć po uszy w programowaniu, by zauważyć pewną regułę: lwia część książek poświęconych temu zagadnieniu została napisana w podobny sposób. I nie chodzi o styl, środowisko czy język, lecz o strukturę. Prawidłowość tę zauważył Łukasz Sosna, który do zagadnienia programowania w języku C# i użytkowania środowiska .NET postanowił podejść w odmienny sposób. W najnowszej publikacji swojego autorstwa zatem skupia się na praktycznym wymiarze programowania, czyli używaniu dostępnych w oprogramowaniu Visual Studio 2022 komponentów zwanych kontrolkami. Prezentuje sposoby oprogramowywania przycisków, menu, pól tekstowych i wyboru, etykiet, list, dymków podpowiedzi, paneli, okien z wyborem koloru, czcionki itd. Skąd taki wybór? Autor, doświadczony programista, doskonale zdaje sobie sprawę, że Visual Studio, C# i .NET zdobywają coraz większą popularność, gdyż idealnie nadają się do pisania programów na wszystkie systemy: komputery działające pod kontrolą Windowsa, Linuksa, macOS-a, a także na inteligentne telewizory, smartfony itd. Jeżeli już znasz Visual Studio i jesteś początkującym programistą korzystającym z tego oprogramowania, to propozycja właśnie dla Ciebie. To też poradnik dla tych, którzy zetknęli się z różnymi językami programowania i chcą się nauczyć obsługi środowiska Visual Studio 2022 w języku C#. W książce: instalowanie Visual Studio 2022, .NET SDK, .NET Runtime debugowanie i uruchamianie aplikacji stosowanie kontrolek i budowanie przy ich użyciu nowych programów w C#, .NET, Visual Studio 2022
Visual Studio 2022. Wprowadzenie do .NET MAUI
Wejdź ze swoim kodem na wiele platform. Równocześnie! Oferowane przez Microsoft oprogramowanie Visual Studio ma spore możliwości. W tym środowisku można samodzielnie projektować aplikacje, aplikacje sieciowe, usługi sieciowe i serwisy internetowe ― czyli praktycznie wszystko. W ramach Visual Studio 2022 możliwa jest praca z .NET MAUI, międzyplatformową strukturą do tworzenia natywnych aplikacji mobilnych i klasycznych (z użyciem języków C# i XAML). Z tego podręcznika dowiesz się, jak w ramach Visual Studio 2022 korzystać z .NET MAUI. Poznasz zasady tworzenia projektów i uruchamiania aplikacji w systemach Windows i Android, jak również przechowywania danych w plikach XML. Zaznajomisz się też z architekturą MVVM i z odpowiednimi poleceniami. Przyjrzysz się zachowaniom, własnościom zależności i własnościom doczepianym. Popracujesz z multimediami, zbadasz stan urządzenia i odczytasz czujniki. Wreszcie skupisz się na Reversi ― na silniku tej gry, jej widoku w .NET MAUI, a także wykrywaniu szczególnych sytuacji. Wisienką na torcie będzie odpalenie gry na komputerze i dla systemu Android.

Every business has process flows, but not all of them are fully described to or verified for accuracy with each stakeholder. This not only presents a risk for business continuity but also removes the ability to make insightful improvements. To make these complex interactions easy to grasp, it’s important to describe these processes visually using symbology that everybody understands. Different parts of these flows should be collaboratively developed and stored securely as commercial collateral.Visualize Complex Processes with Microsoft Visio helps you understand why it is crucial to use a common, systematic approach to document the steps needed to meet each business requirement. This book explores the various process flow templates available in each edition of Microsoft Visio, including BPMN. It also shows you how to use them effectively with the help of tips and techniques and examples to reduce the time required for creating them, as well as how you can improve their integration and presentation.By the end of this book, you’ll have mastered the skills needed to create data-integrated business flowcharts with Microsoft Visio, learned how to effectively use these diagrams collaboratively, but securely, and understood how to integrate them with other M365 apps, including Excel, Word, PowerPoint, and Power Automate.
W krótkich rozdziałach pełnych anegdot, faktów historycznych, spotkań i zbiegów okoliczności, Patrick Deville tworzy panoramę wyjątkowego wrzenia rewolucyjnego, które miało miejsce w Meksyku - przede wszystkim w kilku jego miastach (w stolicy, ale również w Tampico czy Cuernavace) w latach trzydziestych XX w. Dwie najważniejsze postacie tej opowieści to Trocki, dla którego Meksyk był kolejnym etapem jego wygnania i który w odpowiedzi na procesy moskiewskie zorganizował IV Międzynarodówkę, oraz Malcolm Lowry, którego oszałamiające Pod wulkanem wstrząsnęło światem literackim. Drugi podziwiał pierwszego: światowa rewolucja robiła na nim wrażenie. Ale Trocki był również wielkim pisarzem, który mógłby odmienić historię literatury, gdyby jego szeroko zakrojona misja nie została zahamowana. W tej opowieści krzyżują się drogi Fridy Kahlo, Diego Rivery, Tina Modotti, zagadkowego B. Travena o niezliczonych wcieleniach, André Bretona czy Antonina Artaud tropiącego ślady plemienia Tarahumara. To rodzaj zachwycającego danse macabre, w którym duch prowadzi każdego do jego grobu. To dużo lepsze od rezygnowania ze swoich marzeń.
Violet Tempest grows up in a happy home, the beloved only child of friendly and generous parents. She and her father spend days riding and hunting in the old forest that surrounds their house, and Violet is strong in heart and body, not smart, but very intelligent. The only possible flaw is that the mother of her best friend Rory, the ambitious lady Jane, does not approve of their close friendship.
Vladimir Nabokov i jego synestezyjny świat
Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977) w tekstach autobiograficznych i wywiadach przyznawał, że posiada niezwykły dar doświadczania wrażeń kolorystycznych podczas słuchania i artykulacji głosek reprezentujących poszczególne litery alfabetu. Twierdził, że bodźcem dla owych doznań są nakładające się na siebie skojarzenia wzrokowe, smakowe, dotykowe i słuchowe. Nie wyczerpują one jednak palety synestezyjnych doznań autora „Lolity”. Jak pokazują teksty jego powieści i opowiadań, barwnymi odcieniami mienią się imiona bohaterów i nazwy miejscowości, a cyfry i dni tygodnia mogą przybrać postać człowieka lub zwierzęcia. Wobec tak wielkiej różnorodności zjawisk synestezyjnych obecnych w twórczości pisarza autorka książki stawia sobie za cel zaprezentowanie bogactwa tego świata, nasyconego wrażeniami wzrokowymi, smakowymi i dotykowymi oraz zapachami, dźwiękami i emocjami, które zapewniają wielowymiarowość odbioru jego dzieł. Wyjaśnieniu mechanizmów łączenia przedstawionych w tekstach utworów wrażeń zmysłowych, pojęć i idei z doświadczeniami percepcyjnymi posłużyły najnowsze wyniki badań nad synestezją, prowadzonych w zakresie psychologii, medycyny, a także nauk neuronalnych.

Security is a major concern, in particular now that everything is moving to the cloud. A private cloud is a cloud computing platform built on your own hardware and software. The alternative is to deploy the services you need on a public cloud infrastructure provided by an external supplier such as Amazon Web Services, Rackspace Cloud, or HP Public Cloud. While a public cloud can afford greater flexibility, a private cloud gives you the advantage of greater control over the entire stack.VMware vCloud Security focuses on some critical security risks, such as the application level firewall and firewall zone, virus and malware attacks on cloud virtual machines, and data security compliance on any VMware vCloud-based private cloud. Security administrators sometimes deploy its components incorrectly, or sometimes cannot see the broader picture and where the vCloud security products fit in. This book is focused on solving those problems using VMware vCloud and the vCloud Networking and Security product suite, which includes vCloud Networking and Security App, vShield Endpoint, and vCloud Networking and Security Data Security.Ensuring the security and compliance of any applications, especially those that are business critical, is a crucial step in your journey to the cloud. You will be introduced to security roles in VMware vCloud Director, integration of LDAP Servers with vCloud, and security hardening of vCloud Director. We'll then walk through a hypervisor-based firewall that protects applications in the virtual datacenter from network-based attacks. We'll create access control policies based on logical constructs such as VMware vCenter Server containers and VMware vCloud Networking and Security security groups but not just physical constructs, such as IP addresses. You'll learn about the architecture of EPSEC and how to implement it. Finally, we will understand how to define data security policies, run scans, and analyze results.
Most people associate security with network security and focus on firewalls and network monitoring. However, there is more to security than that. Security starts with the establishment of a stable environment, protecting this environment not only from intrusion, but also from malicious intent. It is about tracking the issue and recovering from it. These elements of security are what this book aims to address.VMware View Security Essentials addresses the topic of security in the corporate environment in a new way. It starts with the underlying virtual infrastructure and then delves into securing your base, your connection, and your client. This is not only a “how-to” book, but is also a book that explains the background and the insights of View security for the experienced professional's desktop virtualization.This book takes you through the four major View security areas. Each area deals with all the aspects of security and explains the background as well as laying out simple-to-follow recipes to implement a higher security standard.We start at the Virtualization base and work our way through the various View server types. We will then dive into the problems and issues of securing a connection before we address the security of the desktop itself. We conclude with a look into the backing up of our View installation and preparing for disaster recovery.
