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.

Code words in text, database table names, folder names, filenames, file extensions, pathnames, dummy URLs, user input, and Twitter handles are shown as follows: "When we included the NServiceBus.Host NuGet package, a reference to NServiceBus.Host.exe was added to the class project."

A block of code is set as follows:

public interface IUserCreatedEvent : IEvent
{
  Guid UserId{ get; set; }
  string Name { get; set; }
  string EmailAddress { get; set; }
}

When we wish to draw your attention to a particular part of a code block, the relevant lines or items are set in bold:

public interface IUserCreatedEvent : IEvent
{
  Guid UserId{ get; set; }
  string Name { get; set; }
  string EmailAddress { get; set; }
}

Any command-line input or output is written as follows:

PM> Install-Package NServiceBus.Host –ProjectName UserService

New terms and important words are shown in bold. Words that you see on the screen, for example, in menus or dialog boxes, appear in the text like this: "In the Solution Explorer, right-click on the solution file and click on Properties."
