About Introduction To Mfc Programming With Visual

Product Description PLEASE PROVIDE COURSE INFORMATION PLEASE PROVIDE From the Back Cover 1662J-5 Not just a "run-the-wizard, push-the-buttons" guide -- real MFC mastery! Starts from ground zero: no object-oriented expertise required! An important but simple example illustrations how MFC invokes your virtual functions. Introduces MFC Document/View Architecture, program structure, and much more. Includes more than 90 short programs illustrating collection classes, mouse and keyboard techniques, common controls, menus, and more. Covers bitmap graphics and database access. Simply the most effective, thorough introduction to MFC you can find! If you really want to master MFC, there are no shortcuts, but there is one great book: Introduction to MFC Programming with Visual C++. Unlike many MFC books, this one doesn't start with Microsoft's AppWizard. Rather, it begins by giving you an in-depth grounding in the structure of MFC programs: an understanding that will serve you well in every program you write. Author Richard Jones also introduces the fundamentals of object-oriented programming with MFC and Visual C++, the essential concepts underlying MFC, the Document/View architecture, and much more. Once you understand how MFC really works, Jones helps you accomplish more than you ever imagined. You'll not only master MFC's common interface controls, but also database access, and much more. Introduction to MFC Programming with Visual C++ contains dozens of diagrams and programs–from to-the-point snippets to sizable programs designed to demonstrate powerful software engineering techniques. About the CD-ROM This title originally included a CDROM that contained all of the sample programs. This CDROM is no longer available, nor are the sample programs. About the Author Richard Jones is Professor at Western Connecticut State University, and has been teaching MFC and Win32 programming for four years. Excerpt. © Reprinted by permission. All rights reserved. Preface The 15 chapters in this book present you with a sequence of MFC topics, sample MFC pro-grams and activities. It is my conviction that if you carefully read the topics, study the programs, and do a reasonable number of the suggested exer-cises (yes, practice is necessary), then in about two months time you will feel comfortable writing win-dows programs in C++. Prerequisites Since this book does not cover C++, programming logic, and common algorithms, I assume that you already have a certain minimum level of program-ming experience, and a fairly sound knowledge of C++. Specifically, if you have had a 15-week pro-gramming course using C++ where you have used arrays, structures, and have created a few classes, I think that will constitute an appropriate amount of experience. One of the wildcard factors in learning C++ windows programming is the extent to which you simply enjoy the activity of programming. If you can sit and concentrate for three, four, or five hours working on a problem, then I think your success can be guaranteed. You definitely cannot dabble in MFC and expect any results. The Genesis of this Book Over the last four years I have taught windows pro-gramming (both Win32 programming and MFC programming) in a variety of contexts using at least five different textbooks. These books have ranged from 1300-page encyclopedias to 570 pages of App-Wizard- generated code. In each class I would invari-ably have handouts consisting of sample programs and diagrams. Not content with the available instructional material, I pulled together my "class handouts" dur-ing the winter break of '98-'99, and wrote a 70-page, spiral-bound manual that contained 28 short and simple MFC programs—I still like the title: "Getting a Grip on MFC." The program listings were positioned on the right-hand side pages with accompanying discussion of programs on the preceding left-hand page. Since the page size was 8.5"x11", a good amount of pro-gr
