商品簡介
The end of the twentieth century also marked the beginnings of the Extensible Markup Language (XML). SQL (Structured Query Language) Server was only a year or two later but allowed for yet another quantum leap. Master practitioner Coles obviously has the full support of the manufacturer but also a close eye on the reality of real-world systems as he covers both basic and advanced aspects of SQL Server-based XML development, including reviews of heritage support as well as analyses of new features in the 2005 and 2008 versions of the server. He provides step-by-step instructions and usable code as he describes working with the XML data type and Schema collections, XQuery and its functions and operators, indexing XML, and a complete array of integrated and complementary tools, including HTTP SOAP endpoints, spatial data and GML.
