Part 1: Basic part
Chapter One
begin
This book writes some programs to you on Microsoft Windows98, Windows NT4.0, Windows NT5.0 platform, written in the form of C language, and use Windows Programming Interfaces (APIS) with Windows, in Windows Platform This is not the only method of the only program. In the later chapter, I will discuss this issue. However, no matter what your final code is, understanding Windows APIs is very important to you.
You know, huh! Windows 98 is the latest operating system that has actually become a standard in some IBM compatible personal computers, which are based on 32-bit, such as Intel's 486 and Pentium processors. Windows NT is stronger on a personal PC, and the Windows version with industrial features is like a streamlined instruction set workstation.
Learning this book, there are three prerequisites, first, from a user's point of view, you must be familiar with Windows 98, do not understand its user interface, it is impossible to write Windows applications, for this reason, I suggest you do it. Some programs develop Windows Application on Windows-based machines.
Second. You have to know the C language. If you don't know the C language, the Window program will not have a good start. I suggest you learn it in some character mode, the Windows program has developed a lot of C's characteristics, which Will not have probability in character mode, in short, I will discuss some discussions, I propose, you should know a little about the C structure and pointer, like some standard C runners don't know, though they Very useful.
Finally, you must install the necessary C compiler and easy to develop a Windows application development environment. This book, I suggest you use Visual C 6.0, you can purchase or is developing bag Visual Studio6.0 Part.
Just these, I first assume that you have no graphics development experience.
