In this follow-up to the best-selling Beginning Linux Programming, you
will learn from the authors' real-world knowledge and experience of
developing software for Linux; you'll be taken through the development
of a sample 'DVD Store' application, with 'theme' chapters addressing
different aspects of its implementation. Meanwhile, individual
'take-a-break' chapters cover important topics that go beyond the
bounds of the central theme. All focus on the practical aspects of
programming, showing how crucial it is to choose the right tools for
the job, use them as they should be used, and get things right first
time.

PHP3 and MySQL Web Development introduces you to the advantages of
implementing both MySQL and PHP3. These advantages are detailed
through the provision of both statistics and several case studies. A
practical web application is developed throughout the book, providing
you with the tools necessary to implement a functional online
database. Each function is developed separately, allowing you the
choice to incorporate only those parts that you would like to
implement. Programming concepts of the PHP3 language are highlighted,
including functions which tie MySQL support into a PHP3 script and
advanced topics regarding table manipulation.

C++ For Real Programmers bridges the gap between C++ as described in
beginner and intermediate-level books and C++ as it is practiced by
experts. Numerous valuable techniques are described, organized into
three simple themes: indirection, class hierarchies, and memory
management. It also provides indepth coverage of template creation,
exception handling, pointers and optimization techniques. The focus of
the book is on ANSI C++ and so is compiler independent. C++ For Real
Programmers is a revision of Secrets of the C++ Masters and includes a
new appendix comparing C++ with Java. The book comes with a 3.5" disk
for Windows with source code.

them. It retains the clarity and humor of the Primer, but includes
expanded comparisons to Win32 and OS/2 implementations. Code examples
tested on all of the major UNIX platforms are featured along with
