    I think it belongs on the Windows programming. Google:

    The Forgers win32 tutorial

    and you'll get a good starter.

    hmm... Win32 is not the same as C++ code.
    Win32 is the application programming interface (API), that enables applications to use the 32-bit instructions available on 80386 and higher processors.

    You can write 32-bit programs for windows API, using C++

    What do you have to do to write Win32 API programs in C++.

    Forger's win 32 tutorial is in C.

    rename the file from File.c to File.cpp. thats about all, you can then use all the features of C++ with Win32.

    They are using C because Win32 was originally made for the C language, now they have MFC for C++, but i think MFC is just terrible.
