I know theres a tutorial post in this form but i dont get any good info on it i got all this c and c++ books like learn in 21 days and stuff but no good. Im not stupid now cuz i do know vb like the back of my hand . But does anyone have any good places (links) for VC++ ? i need to learn; I wanna study and hopefully get a just.

It's not clear what you want.

You have to learn:

syntax
the stdlib like printf(), rand(), etc.
control structures
template library

C++ and C are VERY low level compared to VB. One line of VB code can be a screen full of complex C++ code.

Adn the stuff in the locked post covers that nicely.

**parksie** · Nov 26th, 2002, 10:34 AM

Depends whether you want to learn C or C++.

i want a tut or book on stuff like basic Window(i can make but not off the top of my head) and also like common tools and advanced tools. If its a book i want the biggest book lol meaning the best in leaning. I want to learn basic file i/o commands and alos like ini file commands registry commands. and common stuff like that

Try winprog.org their tutorial and faq cover making windows, adding controls. A little bit about common controls..

That tutorial is totally irrelevant if you don't know the language.

At the moment myself, CornedBee, Zaei, and anyone else with useful things to write are writing a new tutorial for C++ from the beginning (aimed at someone with scripting/VB experience).

Thank GOD. Its about time someone did it.
If you need any other help, I would be happy to contribute what I can

**parksie** · Nov 27th, 2002, 11:20 AM

Yeah. I was sick and tired of the state most of the tutorials I've found were in.

www.galahtech.com/forums and C++ for our thread on it

**CornedBee** · Nov 27th, 2002, 02:09 PM

Actually my part is there for people who have never programmed before, to get them started for the real tutorial.

I noticed that a link over at galahtech is kinda 404...
it's the first one in your tutorial thread CornedBee... It's http://www.warwick.ac.uk/~esubad/index.html right now but should be: http://www.warwick.ac.uk/~esubad/index.php (php, not html)

**parksie** · Nov 27th, 2002, 04:04 PM

If you read through the thread you'll notice that I decided to change it from HTML to PHP to simplify putting the page headers and footers on (that's my site

).

**McCain** · Nov 27th, 2002, 04:29 PM

Yeah, I noticed, but I still think it might be a good idea to go back and change all the old links... It would make post like this one and my previous one unnecessary... But ah well, I guess we are all lazy... and I did find the right page so it isn't that bad, I gues...

**parksie** · Nov 27th, 2002, 04:30 PM

The tutorial is nowhere near ready to be advertised yet, that thread is primarily for those involved with collecting/writing tutorials. As we find more useful things they will be posted elsewhere

**McCain** · Nov 27th, 2002, 04:39 PM

Okay.
And I must say that it looks very good so far

**parksie** · Nov 27th, 2002, 04:47 PM

Thank you
