Write Portable Code: A Guide to Developing Software for Multiple Platforms: An Introduction to Developing Software for Multiple Platforms - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Portable software development is the task of writing software that runs on a broad range of computer systems, as opposed to running only on a single system (e.g. Windows).

Write Portable Code contains the lessons, patterns, and knowledge for developing cross-platform software that programmers usually must acquire through sheer trial and error. This book is targeted at intermediate- to advanced-level programmers.

KEY SELLING POINTS
While many books exist that address individual platforms, none discuss cross-platform software design and implementation. By using this book, programmers will be able to:
° avoid common portability mistakes when starting out a new project
° re-factor existing, non-portable code so that it can be easily
transplanted to new platforms
° greatly expand the target market for their products
° find bugs masked by platform specific behaviors
° retain flexibility by not becoming married to a specific development
environment or target platform
