Conventions

In this book, you will find a number of styles of text that distinguish between different kinds of information. Here are some examples of these styles, and an explanation of their meaning.

There are three styles for code. Code words in text are shown as follows:

"The codeActivity1_ExecuteCode method is here and waiting for us to provide an implementation"

A block of code will be set as follows:

using System;
using System.Workflow.Activities;
namespace chapter2_library
{
public sealed partial class PureCode: SequentialWorkflowActivity 
{
public PureCode()
{
InitializeComponent();
}
}
}

When we wish to draw your attention to a particular part of a code block, the relevant lines or items will be made bold:

using System;
using System.Workflow.Activities;
namespace chapter2_library
{
public sealed partial class PureCode: SequentialWorkflowActivity
{
public PureCode() { InitializeComponent(); }
}
}

New terms and important words are introduced in a bold-type font. Words that you see on the screen, in menus or dialog boxes for example, appear in our text like this: "Right-click the workflow and select the Delete option".
