Getting Started with Microsoft Visual C++ 6 with an Introduction to MFC (2nd Edition)

This companion to C++ How to Program, Second Edition -- the world's most widely used C++ textbook -- carefully explains how to use Microsoft's Visual Studio 6 integrated development environment (IDE) and Visual C++ 6 to create Windows programs using the Microsoft Foundation Classes (MFC). Key topics include: Win32 and console applications; online documentation and Web resources; GUI controls; dialog boxes; graphics; message handling; the resource definition language; and the debugger. The book includes 15 "live-code" Visual C++/MFC programs with screen captures; dozens of tips, recommended practices and cautions; and exercises accompanying every chapter. This book is part of a family of resources for teaching and learning C++, including a Web site with the book's code examples, an optional interactive CD-ROM (C & C++ Multimedia Cyberclassroom), and more.  more

exactly what it says

I am a unix/C "old school" programmer switching to windows programming. This book is exactly what the title says. It is an INTRODUCTION to MFC. Very basic. If you just want to get a few dialogs running then this book will help you do...

good book but out dated now

I bought this book to understand MFC although it is getting old now that we have .NET. Yet, this book is short and to the point. I recommend it as a good primer.

Interesting, good examples, but not all that useful

Positives: First I thought the book was very good in that it was very explicit in its examples. Most books have enough ambiguity so that running the examples is cumbersome. Not so in this book where instructions are explicit, examples...
