Microsoft Visual C++ Windows Applications by Example is designed for programmers familiar with C++ or other Windows-based programming languages who aim to develop complex desktop applications using Visual C++. The book provides comprehensive guidance on creating applications with features such as Multiple Document Interface (MDI), complex file formats, text parsing and processing, graphics, and user interactions. It begins with a concise primer on the C++ language and the Visual C++ Integrated Development Environment (IDE), serving both as a refresher for experienced programmers and a quick introduction for newcomers. Subsequent chapters delve into fully functional example applications, including a Tetris-style game, a drawing application, a spreadsheet, and a word processor. Each example is accompanied by detailed explanations of the code, illustrating how it operates and how similar techniques can be applied in readers' own projects. This practical approach equips developers with the essential skills needed to build robust Windows desktop applications using C++.
