5 out of 5 stars The definitive guide to the WinInet API   November 5, 1998
Steven Haines (legato@ix.netcom.com) (Irvine, CA)
8 out of 9 found this review helpful

Aaron Skonnard has accomplished quite a feat - he actually explained the intricacies of the WinInet API in a very understandable manner.

He showed not only the practical use of the API, but the underlying implementation; he explained the various protocols (HTTP, FTP and Gopher) well and the WinInet implementations of them. He discussed both the client and server side of the WinInet API and gave a great networking primer for anyone new to networking.

There have been several books that touched upon the WinInet API, but only dedicated a couple chapters to it. This book is the first resource that performs more than a general overview, in fact it provides all the information one would need to use the API in a professional environment.

As I develop Windows Internet applications, this book will find a permanent home on my desk!


5 out of 5 stars Excellent Coverage of Wininet   September 4, 1999

Yes, you can read the on-line docs about Wininet, but this book covers the subject in a more comprehensive, organised manner. Great code samples. Good section on COM component categories. Improved my understanding of how the Internet and HTTP work.


5 out of 5 stars Excellent intro to the WinInet API.   July 9, 1999

I was up and coding within a few hours of reading chapters 1 through 3. The clearly written source code demonstrates the principles and pitfalls of working with the API in no time at all.


5 out of 5 stars Nice and neat!   February 26, 1999

Very good book if you want to start developing with WinInet. Excellent content and easy to follow logic. Valuable code samples. Besides WinInet reference/code, the book has easy-to-follow parts on TCP/IP and other internet protocols. I wish other authors had the same clarity and transparent style.


5 out of 5 stars Excellent coverage / gets one started quickly!   December 8, 1999
Alex Meseguer (New Jersey, USA)
This is one great book that gets you started early and covers most of the programming concepts. Highly recommended for the serious programmer.
