Microsoft Visual C++ Windows Applications by Example: Code and explanation for real-world MFC C++ Applications

I'll try to not repeat what others have already said in previous reviews.



This is a good book for those who have some background in using the Visual C++ 2008 IDE, C++ itself, and the MFC. It presents some introductory material regarding those topics; however, it is not a sufficient introductory book in those regards, but it is otherwise excellent.



I am not criticizing the book in the above paragraph, merely trying to clarify for whom I think this might be an appropriate book.



The book presents most of its material via 5 Windows examples, Ring, Tetris, Draw, Calc and Word. Ring is a simple program which just puts colored circles on the screen wherever you click the mouse. All the information required to produce it is presented step by step in a clear and adequate manner in the text. There is one piece of code on page 115 where you would want to look at the online Errata. He presents the code for these examples in the text.



I encountered no problems downloading, unpacking, compiling and running all the examples. The code itself includes many helpful comments explaining what the code does. I am by no means an expert C++ programmer, but I think the quality of the code is excellent. I think the code is very clear, efficient and well written.



In conclusion, if you are looking for an introductory book in these topics, this is probably not the book for you. Also, if you are an experienced professional programmer you would probably not get much useful information from this book, unless, that is, you are looking for some examples of clear precise C++ code. If you already have an introductory background and are looking for something to help you make the next steps, I think you would find this book helpful.
