Core Visual C 6

For serious developers who want to learn C++, Core Visual C++ 6.0 covers all the professional tools and techniques needed to build industrial-strength applications. Get up-and-running with Visual C++ quickly: then master the key Visual C++ techniques and features most important for serious Windows development. Learn how to build sophisticated user interfaces using the Document/View Architecture; master multithreading and the constructs needed to implement it. Understand the Windows file system, and master the classes and methods available for file manipulation. Incorporate printing in your application; learn how to use the Visual C++ debugger and profiler; and more. Like all Core books, Core Visual C++ 6 offers real-world explanations targeted at experienced developers -- and real, non-trivial code. For experienced programmers who want to learn Visual C++.

Systematically presents the C++ language as Microsoft defines it, from variables and constants to high-level constructs such as distributed classes and templates and explains how code elements are used, from simple 'if' statements to complex COM/DCOM structures.

Microsofts Visual C++ 6.0 contains many new features to help developers build high performance applications. This book is ideal reading for those who want a quick introduction to Windows programming with Visual C++ and the Microsoft Foundation Class (MFC) library. Written in the inimitable style of the Essentials series, with lots of clear examples, this book is perfect for those who need to learn the maximum in the minimum time and to develop applications fast. Newcomers to the package will also find that Essential Visual C++ 6.0 fast will help them create applications - incorporating all the new features - quickly, effectively and productively. Topics covered include: the two key Windows classes: CFrameWnd and CWinApp; the MFC Library; message maps; controls; graphical output, and much more.

BASIC APPROACH PLEASE PROVIDE COURSE INFORMATION

An established C++ expert uses real-world examples to bring intermediate-level programmers and developers up to speed with the latest version of C++. Holzner explores advanced graphics, creating and synchronizing multithreaded programs, and using Windows hooks to capture keystrokes.

Practical Visual C++ takes a straight forward, no-nonsense approach to teaching C++. You start by learning the basics of Developer Studio with the use of the Wizards, editors, and debuggers. Then move on to the core language, including program flow, data types, functions, classes, object-oriented programming, and more. You then progress into the Microsoft Foundation Classes (MFC), the libraries of pre-build classes that Microsoft provides to make Visual C++ programming much easier. By understanding how to use the classes within MFC, you will be able to create nearly any type of program. Specific coverage includes working with dialogs, objects, controls, document-views, file manipulation, and printing.

A fast-paced yet comprehensive tutorial to the C++ language, punctuated with interesting and worthwhile example programs.
