Framework Design Guidelines: Conventions, Idioms, and Patterns for Reusable .NET Libraries
Krzysztof Cwalina - 2005
Expanded and updated for .NET 3.5, this new edition focuses on the design issues that directly affect the programmability of a class library, specifically its publicly accessible APIs.

It includes copious annotations to the guidelines by thirty-five prominent architects and practitioners of the .NET Framework, providing a lively discussion of the reasons for the guidelines as well as examples of when to break those guidelines. Microsoft architects Krzysztof Cwalina and Brad Abrams teach framework design from the top down. From their significant combined experience and deep insight, you will learnThe general philosophy and fundamental principles of framework design Naming guidelines for the various parts of a framework Guidelines for the design and extending of types and members of types Issues affecting-and guidelines for ensuring-extensibility How (and how "not") to design exceptions Guidelines for-and examples of-common framework design patternsGuidelines in this book are presented in four major forms: Do, Consider, Avoid, and Do not. These directives help focus attention on practices that should "always" be used, those that should "generally" be used, those that should "rarely" be used, and those that should "never" be used. Every guideline includes a discussion of its applicability, and most include a code example to help illuminate the dialogue. "Framework Design Guidelines, Second Edition, " is the only definitive source of best practices for managed code API development, direct from the architects themselves.
