Rating: - A good COM book
This book borrow the format that made the Effective C++ popular. It presents 50 tips on COM. Its targeted audience is developers that have been using COM for a while. Prior knowledge of COM is expected for reading this book. In general, it provides very good tips but the only exception is the section about MTS. Maybe the tips are good but I do not know as I have never worked with MTS. That section contains 8 tips of the 50 tips of the book.
Rating: - Read this book after Essential COM
Essential COM explains how COM really works but when it comes to specific problem you can't figure out what is the best solution to it. Effective COM goes further and presents good COM programming practices. It also clarifies some material from the former book that has not been explained in sufficient depth or lacks specific examples. However the chapter about security is not sufficient.

Rating: - Demise of DCOM
This book was meant to help readers do DCOM more efficiently. But after learning about the gory details and ever-shifting underlying plumbings which may well defeat all one's efforts, the only conclusion is DCOM should never be hyped. Java and .Net are the far better solutions. Don't even mention the DCOM security stuff that make it a hell across domains.
Hey man, you should told us that DCOM deserve to be dead at the beginning. :-(
COM is for desktop, period.
Rating: - Best Practices for COM Development! Very practical!
Your looking for a book that will make you a more productive COM developer, get this one immediately.
Rating: - bark like a dog you bird.
I am one cheap programmer. I've survived, most of my 11 years buying less then 20 books (employers bought the rest). However, com objects made me loosen the purse strings. To use com objects from ASP scripts I found the following references NECESSARY: OREILEY book on ASP, OREILEY book Learning dcom, Oreiley book on VBScript, Oreiley book on Developing ASP Components.
I've also noticed, that the books really do not overly overlap that I would consider any of the ... Read More
