341 Pages with a Comprehensive Index. No marks, underlining, or stamps. Microsoft Transaction Server (MTS) is a technology that provides many powerful tools to the COM and DCOM programmer. The transactions it is capable of maintaining allow for highly scaleable database access with a high level of fault tolerance, allowing the developer to abort modifications smoothly, and roll back, resources to their original state with the minimum of effort. A knowledge of MTS is becoming ever more important with the advent of COM+, which is in many ways an integration of MTS with COM. MTS is also about distributed transactions, and the multi-machine deployment options available allow much more flexibility than using plain DCOM. An added bendit is that it achieves this !n a more user-friendly way than has previously been possible. In addition, MTS introduces the object context, which provides control over security and transaction requirements above and beyond the simple apartment requirements of plain COM objects. Contents In 8 Chapters: Interception, MTS and COM, Programming Issues, Packages and Deployment, The Distributed Transaction Coordinator, Security, MTS Debugging, and The Way Forward. Plus Appendix A: MTS Events, and Introduction. Large heavy book that may incur additional charges for priority shipping to some locations.…

Review
This book jumps right in with a discussion of what happens when you make COM calls with an in-depth discussion of COM interception. The author shows that you can emulate some of the powers of MTS yourself. (Simply put, by managing resources and transactions for you, MTS-enabled COM objects can be more scalable and robust.) Short code excerpts show off programming with COM and MTS together. The author also demonstrates a method to tweak the wizard-generated code in Visual C++, enabling you to write more powerful MTS-aware ATL components.
You can also enable your ATL-based objects to access corporate data with ADO using the introduction provided here. The last section on the new COM+ available in Windows 2000 illuminates the capabilities of MTS that will soon be integrated into the COM+ infrastructure itself. The author provides a detailed tour here of what COM+ means for the future.
In all, Professional Visual C++ 6 MTS Programming is a book for experts who want to see what MTS (and COM+) do underneath the hood. If you need to squeeze more performance out of your MTS-enabled ATL components, take a look at this technically savvy book. --Richard Dragan
