    Question good tut on gui in c++? and Questions

    Hey guys do some of you know where there is some good tutorials, and explanations working with gui in c++?

    what is difference in "opengl" and "directx"?

    do i need a open library to my compiler too work with gui? Or can you make gui from 'scratch'?

    how much off c++ should you have learned before using gui in your program, example make a list of what i should learn before? (I/O,functions,pointers)...

    Thank you all for you answer's (-:

    Mostly, it's easier to grab a library than to resort to bashing pixels yourself.

    Also, when people talk about a GUI, they usually mean things like buttons, scroll bars, check boxes and the like.

    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.

    Windows API is extremely convulsed and difficult to use, however. A widget toolkit is to be preferred, especially for beginners.
