Conventions

In this book, you will find a number of text styles 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: " By default, the domain name is set to azurewebsites.net."

A block of code is set as follows:

async Task<int> GetContentLengthAsync(string uri)
{
    int contentLength;
    using (var client = new HttpClient())
    {
        var content = await client.GetStringAsync(uri);
        contentLength = content.Length;
    }
 
    return contentLength;
}

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 static void Register(HttpConfiguration config) 
{ 
// Web API configuration and services 
// Web API routes 
config.MapHttpAttributeRoutes();
config.Routes.MapHttpRoute( 
name: "DefaultApi", 
routeTemplate: "api/{controller}/{id}", 
defaults: new { id = RouteParameter.Optional } 
); 
}

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

PM> Install-Package Microsoft.AspNet.WebApi

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: "Click on Publish to open the Publish wizard, and select Microsoft Azure Websites as the publish target."
