Product Description:
Ivor Horton's Beginning Visual C++ 2008

Proudly presenting the latest edition of one of the all-time bestselling books on the C++ language, successful author Ivor Horton repeats the formula that has made each previous edition so popular by teaching you both the standard C++ language and C++/CLI as well as Visual C++ 2008. Thoroughly updated for the 2008 release, this book shows you how to build real-world applications using Visual C++ and guides you through the ins and outs of C++ development.

Horton's accessible approach and detailed examples cover both flavors of the C++ language-native ISO/ANSIC++ Windows application development using the Microsoft Foundation Classes (MFC), as well as the development of C++/CLI Windows applications using Windows Forms. He also introduces you to the techniques you can use for accessing data sources in both MFC and Windows Forms, and working examples demonstrate each programming technique that is being discussed. With this book by your side, you are well on your way to becoming a successful C++ programmer.

What you will learn from this book
  • How to use the Standard Template Library, a powerful and extensive set of tools for organizing and manipulating data in your native C++ programs
  • Techniques for finding errors in your C++ programs
  • The ways that Microsoft(r) Windows(r) applications are structured and the elements that are essential for each application
  • How to create and use common controls in order to build the graphical user interface for your application
  • Ways to develop your own libraries using MFC
  • The different controls that are available for accessing data sources, how they work, and how to customize them


Who this book is for
This book is for anyone who wants to write C++ applications for the Microsoft Windows OS. No prior experience of any programming language is assumed.

Wrox Beginning guides are crafted to make learning programming languages and technologies easier than you think, providing a structured, tutorial format that will guide you through all the techniques involved.



Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - C++ GUI
This book was great for helping teach how to create a gui from just the windows.h files. It also went through creating one with other headers but those headers are only in the full visual Studio 2008 profesional. I enjoyed it. It will be helpfull to other intermediate programers to even advanced ones. To the ones just starting out it is alright but not the greatest.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - C++ showing its age
Just read an interview with Bjarne Stroustrup, the inventor of C++, where he studiously avoided talking about C# as much as possible. Understandable, perhaps - in my opinion most (not all, but most) programming projects for Windows systems would benefit greatly from using C# instead of C++.

Not that the above observation has anything to do with "Ivor Horton's Beginning Visual C++ 2008"; I just felt the urge to pass along that opinion in case the reader of this review has not yet decided ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - An Excellent Introduction to C++
Any serious programming will require more than the free edition of C++! This is a great book to learn the language comprehensively from the bottom up - I have recommended it to several colleagues and none of them have been disappointed to date - well done again Mr Horton...



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - BEST OF ITS KIND
I have used Ivor Horton's books on Visual C++ since Beginning Visual C++ 4 and this latest book conforms to the very high standard set by the previous books.

First of all, the book is written for the IDE(s) provided and not the other way round. This book covers the ISO/ANSI standard C++ and the Microsoft extension C++/CLI, together with the Standard Template Library, in the first 11 chapters. Windows Programming is introduced in Chapter 12 and covers both MFC and Windows Forms.

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Be sure to purchase the proper IDE before using this book!
I was not prepared for the extra cost of Microsoft's Visual Studio 2008 Standard, Professional or Team Edition in order to use Ivor Horton's Beginning Visual C++ 2008. It would have been nice to have been informed before making the purchase that Microsoft Visual C++ Express Edition was not sufficient to work through this "beginners" book. Although I have no real problem with them requiring a certain IDE, I had only found out about this added expense while reading the books introductory pages. Perhaps this ... Read More
