XML

This two-day course teaches the different types of XML parsing available in .NET. It covers the different parsing methodologies available from Microsoft and gives an overview of XML technologies in the .NET Framework. Both the streaming model of XmlReader and XmlWriter and the Document Object Model (DOM) are covered in detail. Validation using DTD and XmlSchema is discussed. New features in System.Xml in .NET 2.0 are discussed in the context of where the topics are covered. Visual Studio 2005 is used as the development environment.

This comprehensive and practical four-day course builds skills in .NET’s XML processing APIs—chiefly parsing using XmlReader and the Document Object Model (DOM), writing XML streams using XmlWriter, transformations using XPath and XSLT, and the new LINQ to XML, all using the .NET Framework XML classes and the Visual Basic language. It also covers XML serialization according to XML Schema and the tight coupling between XML and ADO.NET. The course is intended for students with a working knowledge of XML who want to build XML Web applications or components using .NET and the Visual Basic language. Everything in the course adheres to W3C and .NET standards for highly portable code. Visual Studio 2008 with .NET 3.5 is used as the development environment. The course includes extensive programming examples, a progressively developed case study, and several tools for manipulating XML documents. All source code is in Visual Basic and is provided with the course. A separate Lab Manual provides detailed instructions for laboratory exercises with console and ASP.NET Web Forms client programs. Upon completion of this course the student will be equipped to program XML applications in .NET and understand which XML and .NET technologies to apply for the problem domain.

This fast-paced course teaches the features built into Visual Studio .NET for creating and maintaining XML in applications, as well as integrating XML into distributed applications. The course covers: XML standards implemented in the .NET Framework, including the core XML specification, XSLT, and XML schema; the different ways that .NET parses XML data; writing applications that read XML, create it from scratch, and modify existing XML after parsing it into memory; the various tools in .NET for validating the structure of XML data, including legacy (that are still widely-used techniques) as well as the new standards that are making their way into new tools; features in ADO.NET to work with relational data using either relational or XML techniques, and using the XML features of SQL Server 2000; implementation of XML Web services using .NET Framework tools.

In this two-day course you will use the features of XSLT and XPath to develop stylesheets that convert XML documents to other XML, HTML, or text.  The course begins with an introduction to commonly used tags such as template, apply-templates, and value-of.  From there, you will learn how to use XPath nodetypes, axes, and predicates.  Flow control and functions are covered next.  Finally, you will learn some advanced XSLT features such as variables and parameters.

In this course you will learn advanced features of XML. Through lecture and hands-on lab exercises, you will become fluent in several XML standards and applications.

In this two-day course students will learn advanced features of XML. Through lecture and hands-on lab exercises, they will extend their capabilities in XML Schema, XPath, and XSLT. In addition, new topics such as XQuery and features of XSLT 2.0 will be discussed.
