Conventions

In this book, you will find a number of styles of text that distinguish between different kinds of information. Here are some examples of these styles, and an explanation of their meaning.

There are three styles for code. Code words in text are shown as follows: "In the third page we have to specify the LAN network path to the database shared folder that contains the srcsafe.ini file."

A block of code will be set as follows:

/// <summary>
/// Updates the room database with the information in the room
/// parameter
/// </summary>
/// <param name="rooms">The RoomDataTable object containing
/// the information to be updated</param>
public void UpdateRooms(RoomDS.RoomDataTable rooms)
{
throw new System.NotImplementedException();
}

Any command-line input and output is written as follows:

selfssl.exe /N:CN=vss.alexandruserban.com /T /V:365

New terms and important words are introduced in a bold-type font. Words that you see on the screen, in menus or dialog boxes for example, appear in our text like this: "The path can be entered manually or by using the Browse button to browse the network for the specific path."
