This book grew out of an ongoing popular series of short, to-the-point technical articles on DevX.com (http://www.devx.com) called 10-Minute Solutions, which fuse the “Ask the Expert”-type question-and-answer format with the more comprehensive tutorial-type article. Melding the two provides authors not only with a forum for presenting solutions to common questions, but also the space to include full real-world code examples and in-depth explanations targeted directly toward giving readers an understanding of why the solution works. Our hope is that you’ll find many opportunities to apply the solutions we describe to your own work.
