Description

Wrox's Professional Development with Web APIs teaches programmers how to incorporate the power of Google, eBay, Amazon.com, MapPoint, FedEx and other popular services into their own applications.Certified Microsoft Developer and veteran Wrox author Denise Gosnell, skillfully guides readers through the ins and out of the various services, which features are available via the APIs, the anatomy of an API query, and how to get results from your own applications. Once the basics are covered, readers will learn more advanced techniques such as calling the APIs from mobile devices, Office VBA programs, Windows Forms and web applications, and even how to integrate the various APIs together for a complete solution.Finally, readers will build 2 fully functional case study applications to apply what they have learned - one a Windows program, the other a web application.Examples are presented in Visual Basic .NET, as a general programming language that most programmers can understand and apply to their own development. API calls, queries, and access are standard regardless of programming language choice.As an added bonus for .NET developers, C# code, as well as the Visual Basic .NET examples will also be available for download at Wrox.com
