Book Excerpt: SharePoint 2007 Developer's Guide to the Business Data Catalog
SharePoint 2007 Developer's Guide to Business Data Catalog, by Brett Lonsdale and Nick Swan, is a practical, example-rich guide to the features of the Business Data Catalog (BDC) and the techniques you need to build solutions for end users. This book starts with the basics—what the BDC is, what you can do with it, and how to pull together a simple BDC solution. With the fundamentals in hand, you can start exploring the techniques and ideas to put BDC into use in your organization.
In Chapter 2, "The Application Definition File," the author describes the structure of application definition files (the files you need to connect SharePoint to business data stored in databases and other locations), and covers what you need to know to create, edit, and import them to build powerful Line Of Business (LOB) applications.
