Nowadays, most companies run both Windows and UNIX/Linux systems -- and thousands of system programmers face the challenge of working in both environments. Programming the Win32 API and UNIX System Services is the first hands-on, practical guide to systems programming in both environments. The book starts with a quick, easy overview of both the Win32 API and UNIX system services in Solaris and Red Hat Linux. Next, it presents complete, in-depth coverage of every key aspect of systems programming in each of these environments, including processes, threads, controlling concurrent activity, signals, file I/O, memory, network programming, security, and much more. Throughout, the book presents easy-to-adapt "cookbook" sample code that solves the key problems systems programmers encounter, helping them become proficient in heterogeneous environments more rapidly than ever before. For all Visual C++, MFC, and other Windows programmers interested in learning system-level programming for Windows 98/2000 or for UNIX; and for all UNIX programmers transitioning to the Windows environment.

With Win32 System Programming, you can capitalize on your knowledge of high-end operating systems such as UNIX, MVS, and VMS to learn Windows system programming quickly. Written from the perspective of an experienced programmer, the book presents the core operating system services of Win32, the common API for the Windows 95 and Windows NT operating systems. It explains Win32 functions clearly, with numerous comparisons to corresponding UNIX calls, and highlights features unique to Win32. Because most experienced programmers are already familiar with processes, virtual memory, and preemptive scheduling, the book spends little time introducing these concepts, but instead shows how they are implemented in Win32. This text is for programmers using systems services, and focuses on the management of core operating systems resources rather than the graphical user interface.

Windows NT/2000 Native API Reference is absolutely unique. Currently, documentation on WIndows NT's native APIs can only be found through access to the source code or occasionally Web sites where people have chosen to share bits of insight gained through reverse engineering. This book provides the first complete reference to the API functions native to Windows NT and covers the set of services that are offered by Windows NT to both kernel- and user-mode programs. Ideal for the intermediate and advanced level user- and kernel-mode developers of Windows systems, this books is devoted to the NT native API and consists of documentation of the 210 routines included in the API. Also included are all the functions added in Windows 2000.

The Definitive Guide to Windows API Programming, Fully Updated for Windows 7, Windows Server 2008, and Windows Vista Windows System Programming, Fourth Edition, now contains extensive new coverage of 64-bit programming, parallelism, multicore systems, and many other crucial topics. Johnson Hart’s robust code examples have been updated and streamlined throughout. They have been debugged and tested in both 32-bit and 64-bit versions, on single and multiprocessor systems, and under Windows 7, Vista, Server 2008, and Windows XP. To clarify program operation, sample programs are now illustrated with dozens of screenshots. Hart systematically covers Windows externals at the API level, presenting practical coverage of all the services Windows programmers need, and emphasizing how Windows functions actually behave and interact in real-world applications. Hart begins with features used in single-process applications and gradually progresses to more sophisticated functions and multithreaded environments. Topics covered include file systems, memory management, exceptions, processes, threads, synchronization, interprocess communication, Windows services, and security. New coverage in this edition includes Leveraging parallelism and maximizing performance in multicore systems Promoting source code portability and application interoperability across Windows, Linux, and UNIX Using 64-bit address spaces and ensuring 64-bit/32-bit portability Improving performance and scalability using threads, thread pools, and completion ports Techniques to improve program reliability and performance in all systems Windows performance-enhancing API features available starting with Windows Vista, such as slim reader/writer locks and condition variables A companion Web site, jmhartsoftware.com, contains all sample code, Visual Studio projects, additional examples, errata, reader comments, and Windows commentary and discussion.

This Book Is A Practical Guide To The Essential Features And Functions Of The Windows Api. Unlike Most Resources, It Focuses On The Core System Services - File Systems, Memory, Threads, Synchronization, Processes, Communication, And Security - Rather Than The More Commonly Featured Graphical User Interface (Gui) Functions. While The .Net Framework Has Gotten Most Of The Excitement The Last Few Years, There Are Still Many Developers Whose Main Responsibility Is Developing And Maintaining Windows Systems Apps. Numerous Practical, Well-Tested Application Programs-- Suitable For Both Personal And Server Systems-- Are Included Along With Performance Measurements On A Wide Variety Of Single And Multiprocessor Systems. In Addition To Winxp And Win2003, This Book Teaches How To Use The .Net Framework To Program The Windows System And Develop Applications. This Completely Updated Edition Also Introduces The Use Of Open Source Software.
