    Mfc

    Hello:

    I am trying to find some good tutorials (either tutor-led or self-learning) for programming C++ in the Windows environment (e.g., MFC).

    Does anyone have recommendations? Any comments are greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    Please drop me a line at [email protected], if you would.

    Chris

    Get a copy of programming windows by charles petzold (5th edition). This will give you a good grounding in the win32 api. After you know most of the api then get a copy of programming windows with mfc by jeff prosise. This will give you a much more OOP look at programming for windows. I can't stress enough how important it is to learn the api before attempting to learn mfc.
    Free the weed!! Class B to class C is not good enough!!
    And the FAQ is here :- http://faq.cprogramming.com/cgi-bin/smartfaq.cgi

    I don't know a lot about Windows programming with C++, I always used Delphi. But I heard some good C++ programmers not recommending MFC. Maybe they have a reason as they say this. They're saying it's better to use WinAPI instead. I worked with WinAPI in Delphi and it's not difficult (perfect e-documentation).
    Please excuse my poor english...
