How to start Visual C++?
-
Hi, I developed programs using C/C++ on command line. I know syntax of these languages. And also developed some projects with Java, C#. Now I want to learn visual programming on C++ under Windows. Also I have little knowledge on cross platform graphical user interface libraries like GTK+ and Qt. Where should i start? Which subject should i start first? (Should i start with MFC or Win32?) Could you suggest me a book or web site? Thanks

My suggestion is of Win32 however you can use of MFC you can start with write a Dialog base application or SDI and then see messages for example see WM_CREATE when a window is created and then WM_SHOWWINDOW for hide or visible a window and WM_ACTIVE for active windows and WM_SIZE,... Codeproject has good articles and its a section for controls on the MFC.

By reading a good book on the subject. Petzold's book is always a respectable choice.
"Normal is getting dressed in clothes that you buy for work and driving through traffic in a car that you are still paying for, in order to get to the job you need to pay for the clothes and the car and the house you leave vacant all day so you can afford to live in it." - Ellen Goodman

Everyone was a newbie once... There are MANY (legions) of books available... I wouldn't promote piracy (no, not me!), but several are even available in various places on the net, if you know where to look... Teach Yourself Visual C++ in 21 Days (ambitious title) Visual C++ Unleashed etc... Both take you step by step through different projects and teach you WHAT you can do so you can learn HOW to do it... If you are like me, you would want a real-print version of the book so you can thumb through it... Good luck!
