C++ Network Programming, Volume 2, focuses on ACE fr a meworks, providing thorough coverage of the concepts, patterns, and usage rules that form their structure. This book is a practical guide to designing object-oriented fr a meworks and shows developers how to apply fr a meworks to concurrent networked applications. C++ Networking, Volume 1, introduced ACE and the wrapper facades, which are basic network computing ingredients. Volume 2 explains how fr a meworks build on wrapper facades to provide higher-level communication services.
