Key topics include:
- IDE, console applications, Win32® applications
- Online documentation, Web resources
- GUI controls (i.e., edit texts, list boxes, etc.)
- Graphics, message handling
- Debugger, dialog boxes
- Resource definition language
Getting Started with Microsoft Visual C++ 6 with an Introduction to MFC includes:
- 17 "live-code" Visual C++/MFC programs with screen captures
- Exercises (many with answers) accompanying every chapter
- Dozens of tips, recommended practices, and cautions-all marked with icons
Good Programming Practices
