      :cool: Well, I unfortunately don't have the book (although I am currently keeping watch for one for under $15 on Ebay), so I'm not that familiar with its contents. I've looked at the TOC on Amazon.com, though. But I'll let you know if I find something that needs coverage that I don't think you've covered.

                    :) As many people feel that authors don't cover enough of the issues that need to be addressed, I thought I'd give people here a chance to make sure that the topics of their interest are included in the book. And what better place to offer that chance than on a site where people come when they can't find answers in current books :) Cheers, Tom Archer Never be afraid to try something new.

                      Tom, I just read your reply, however I have not received a notification yet via email that a reply was posted. I'll keep watching in case it just hasn't passed through all the wires yet. :)

                            (my post from Tom's forum copied here for the benefit of Code Project users) Tom, I would like to see a C# book with more coverage of the following issues: 1. Performance. For example, an expansion of the stuff in Jan Gray's article (http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/?url=/library/en-us/dndotnet/html/fastmanagedcode.asp) would be excellent! Also have a look at the topics in the dotnet framework performance newsgroup and hit on some of those. 2. Threading and async delegate calls, in depth! Top to bottom, beginning to end, easy to hard. 3. I'm waiting on the equivalent of Scott Myers's "Effective C++" books for C#, so the more such tips you can include, the better! 4. As a continuation of #3, I'd like to see a bit about lazy evaluation in C#. For example, I often use a property that creates the object on demand, and I'd like to find more similar tricks. 5. More on code generation. 6. More on how the C# compiler works. 7. LOTS on generics! This will be exciting. I'm looking forward to your book and the new laguage features!
