Starting out by skipping chapters !

Heya guys,

I haven't registered yet as I'm still struggling with C/C++ in general.

Problem is that I have a fairly decent amount of experience using the Win32Api in other languages and only limited experience with C/C++.

So, I'd love to learn C/C++ but I really do NOT want to code any crappy PhoneBook commandline tools to start with.

Rushing immediately into C Windows programming makes me realize that I don't know how to declare vars and that I'm missing some fundamental basics which is fatal. ( Of course )

So, Question:

Anyone knows a good place to start with C/C++ using the WinApi and therefore skipping that crappy commandline :) ??

hmm...maybe this doesn't teach you full c++ syntax but it migh be something for you anyway..?
Windows GUI tutorial
not to extensive though but no harm in checkin it out :)

Heh, Thanks... Meanwhile I also found The Forgers Tuts which do more or less the same thing.

Maybe you should just bite the bullet and do the crappy phonebook app.

LOL...
maybe I should :p

I think if understand the syntax or C++, and spend some time of the basics- not the very simple basics- you can save time in learning the advanced things.
