The Curl framework for the book, Enterprise Curl, has been upgraded to Curl 6.0 and is now in an SVN repository at http://code.google.com/p/curl-enterprise-framework-v1-1/
The code can be downloaded from the same site in a ZIP file.
It has only been testing in IE7 on Windows XP

The demo may take a moment to start as the PCurls load. Not all features have been restored (the splash screen used undocumented code from a 2.0 pre-release for subapplets; the MDI interface and the toolbar need some work.
All scurl files have been renamed to lowercase for the yahoo host, but only a few have been converted to hyphenated names.
There are a few minor changes to AppParameters class for ease of use in a web container or running locally; some GIF files are now JPG's; there is now use of {register-suspend-proc}; a TabPane abstract class was added.
I have started an index to the Enterprise Curl book at another link at logiquewerks.
Some of the code is of slightly uneven quality and there are memory and GUI issues once the MDI windows are opening. But since the book is available, I thought it worthwhile to have a working version of the example from the book.
The book has treatments of SOAP with web services and the basics of using a SAXParser.
That so much code from early in version 2.0 could be upgraded with such ease to Curl 6.0 is a testament to the backward-compatibility achieved by the Curl team: all code ran from local files once the version was flipped toCurl 6.0, including the dodgy subapplet code for a splash pane.
