About Win32++
|
||
|
|
-------------
|
||
|
|
Win32++ is simple and easy to understand framework for developing Win32
|
||
|
|
applications using C++. It brings an object oriented approach to programming
|
||
|
|
directly with the Win32 API. Each window created is a C++ class object capable
|
||
|
|
of having its own window procedure for routing messages.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Win32++ supports the following compilers and development environments:
|
||
|
|
* Borland C++ Compiler 5.5
|
||
|
|

Getting Started
|
||
|
|
---------------
|
||
|
|
Each file download includes the project files for Dev-C++, CodeBlocks and the
|
||
|
|
various compilers from Microsoft. CodeBlocks is an IDE (Integrated Development
|
||
|
|
Environment) that supports GNU GCC, Borland Developer Studio 2006 and Microsoft
|
||
|
|
C++ Toolkit 2003.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You can start with one of the sample programs, and add your code. Alternatively
|
||
|
|
you can start with the projects and sample code provided in the "new projects"
|
||
|
|
folder.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For additional information on getting started, refer to the help included
|
