HIGHLIGHT
Developers learn to apply the same techniques they use for new application
development to legacy apps.
DESCRIPTION
Most software developers have inherited legacy or brownfield projects that
require maintenance, incremental improvements, or even cleaning up the mess
another programmer left behind.
Brownfield Application Development in .NET shows developers how to
approach legacy applications with the state-of-the-art concepts, patterns, and
tools developers apply to new projects. Using an existing application as an
example, this book guides readers in applying the techniques and best practices
they need to make a brownfield application more maintainable and receptive to
change.
As the book proceeds, the authors introduce frameworks and tools commonly
used today while still approaching the subject from a conceptual level so that
you can substitute alternate tools as appropriate. Because the book is based on
the authors’ experiences, Brownfield Application Development in .NET
moves beyond the theories and shows readers the techniques they need to be
successful.
KEY POINTS
• Preparing for change
• Challenges and goals in inheriting a project
• Applying agile techniques―like testing and refactoring―to legacy apps
MARKET INFORMATION
Simply put, there are a lot more developers slogging through old legacy apps
than there are creating new ones. Virtually all books on maintaining legacy apps
address Java or C++ developers. This is the first book to tackle legacy applications
from a .NET developer’s perspective.

About the Author
Kyle Baley
has been developing applications since 1998 with a focus on web
applications. He has built software for a number of industries, including transportation,
telecommunications, private banking, oil and gas, online education,
and hotels and hospitality.
Donald Belcham is an independent contractor who has been developing applications
for the public and private sectors of North America and the South Pacific
since 2000. In those years he has built some green field applications, but more
often than not he has inherited partially completed systems (brownfield) which
were in dire need of resuscitation.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to HPB-Diamond, Carrollton, Texas, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
