WCF Advanced Books

Hi,

I've read all questions like mine and found a few good links. My question is about architect of WCF, how it is designed, how is generated reference.vb, wsdl and xsd files. How can I do that manually, some good examples of WCF Systems (mostly on desktop applications over TCP).

I'd like a book or documentation or anything else, that can give me advanced knowledge of WCF.

What do you think of this book http://www.amazon.com/Professional-WCF-Windows-Communication-Foundation/dp/0470563141/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1269425390&sr=8-5 ?

And generally is there any source that would give me this all or the only way is practising, trying, looking in all that generated files and reading documentations?

Thank you.

For me, Juval Lowy's Programming WCF Services.

@kenny, I have that book. It's really useful, but I'd like something more advanced. I mean, not only the structure of service and client sides. I need a book for someone who knows already about bindings, endpoints, behaviors and all other basic staff. Maybe more on WCF technology principles, how it works, how are messages generated and so on..

@hgulyan: I didn't know you could get even *more advanced* than Juval Lowy!

@marc_s, in that case there isn't any book I need. Maybe the new book on WCF 4, that is on pre-order status now? p.s. It shouldn't only be a book. It can be a documentation, articles, presentations or smth else, that can give dipper knowledge on WCF.For example, you with your wcf certificate, excellent knowledge on almost everything concerning wcf and other stuff. What did you read? What helped you to get so far into that? Juval Lowy? And that's it?

@hgulyan: Juval Lowy's Master Class and the MCTS certification for WCF - and lots of practice! :-) But yes, in terms of books, it's been Michele Leroux Bustamante for beginners and Juval Lowy for advanced topics, so far.

@marc_s, totally agree. I read and revisit his stuff and get new stuff out of it every time.

Ok, thank you guys, I'll continue reading and praticing.

I always prefer WCF MSDN Library as best place to go for.
