Microsoft Visual C++ Windows Applications by Example
Microsoft Visual C++ Windows Applications by Example
by Stefan Björnander
Published by Packt Publishing
Book Overview
This is a book about Windows application development in C++. It addresses some rather difficult problems that occur during the development of advanced applications. Most books in this genre have many short code examples. This one has only four main code examples, but rather extensive ones. They are presented in increasing complexity order. The simplest one is the Tetris application, which deals with graphics, timing, and message handling.
The Draw application adds a generic coordinate system and introduces more complex applications states. The Calc application deals with formula interpretation and graph searching. Finally, in the Word application every character is allowed to hold its own font and size, resulting in a rather complex size and position calculation.
The book starts with an introduction to object-oriented programming in C++, followed by an overview of the Visual Studio environment with the Ring demonstration application as well as a presentation of some basic generic classes. Then the main applications are presented in one chapter each.

Memory management: algorithms and implementation in C/C++
Memory management: algorithms and implementation in C/C++
by Bill Blunden
ISBN 1-55622-347-1
Overview
This book provides an in-depth look at memory subsystems and offers extensive source code examples. In cases where I do not have access to source code (i.e., Windows), I offer advice on how to gather forensic evidence, which will nurture insight. While some books only give readers a peak under the hood, this book will give readers a power drill and allow them to rip out the transmission.
The idea behind this is to allow readers to step into the garage and get their hands dirty. My own experience with memory managers began back in the late 1980s when Borland’s nifty Turbo C 1.0 compiler was released. This was my first taste of the C language. I can remember using a disassembler to reverse engineer library code in an attempt to see how the malloc() and free() standard library function.

Pages: 504
Overview
Like every other application in Microsoft Office suite, PowerPoint is loaded with features. So many, in fact, that even veterans don't know where to find them all. Microsoft solved this problem in PowerPoint 2007 by redesigning the user interface with a tabbed toolbar that makes features easy to locate and use. PowerPoint 2007 also boasts improved graphics, additional templates, the ability to save custom layouts, and improved collaboration through SharePoint. One thing Microsoft hasn't improved is its poor documentation. To learn the ins and outs of all the features in PowerPoint 2007, Microsoft merely offers online help. If you're familiar with previous versions of the program, you may be lost the first time you fire up the new PowerPoint; or you would be if it weren't for PowerPoint 2007: The Missing Manual.
This new book, written specifically for this version of the software, not only offers the basics of how to create, save, set up, run, and print a basic bullets-and-background slideshow, but takes you into the world of multimedia, animation, and interactivity. You'll learn how to add pictures, sound, video, animated effects, and controls (buttons and links) to their slides, along with ways to pull text, spreadsheets, and animations created in other programs. You can also create your own reusable design templates and learn to automate repetitive tasks with macros. Learn how to take advantage of advanced functions (such as adding custom background images) that existed in previous PowerPoint versions, but were so cleverly hidden that few people ever found them.

Database Access with Visual Basic
Database Access with Visual Basic
(Publisher: Macmillan Computer Publishing)
Author(s): Jeffrey Mcmanus
Page: 330
ISBN: 1562765671
It’s probably safe to say that the majority of Visual Basic developers will use VB to access databases sooner or later. So why aren’t there more books on databases and Visual Basic? Because database access is the equivalent of plumbing. Like plumbing, there are dozens of segments you must put together before the whole thing works, and when it doesn’t work, the part that’s causing the problem isn’t immediately obvious. Put bluntly, it’s a decidedly unsexy topic.
This book puts the plumbing in order. It won’t help you hike up your pants when you reach under the sink, but it will give you exposure to nearly all aspects of database access you’re likely to encounter in Visual Basic today. Through it all, the objective is to give you the information you need in a concise manner, using examples and step-by-step procedures rather than brief, acronym-laden blurbs.

Welcome to your Visual Basic support package. That's hat this book has been
designed to be: your complete VB support package. Have we reached that goal yet? It
's up to you to decide. If what you're looking for is not in this edition, we'll work hard
to make sure it'sn the nextI encourage your suggestions. Please feel free to write.
We'll put in the time to make sure this book is the most complete one available on
Visual Basic, edition after edition. This is the book we want you to come back to
again and again.
This book has been designed to give you the coverage you just won't find in any other
book. Other books often omit not only the larger topics, like deploying your program
after you've created it and creating Help files, but also the smaller ones, like covering
in depth just about every control that comes with Visual Basic, including the ActiveX
controlsfrom the MS chart control to flat scroll bars, from the serial port comm
control to the Internet transfer control.
The task-based format we use in this book is the one most programmers appreciate
because programming is a task-based business. Rather than reading about subjects in
the order the author thinks best, you can go directly to your topic of interest and find
the bite-sized nugget of information you need, such as opening an FTP connection,
adding a Web browser to your program, supporting online user registration from
Visual Basic, adding a method to an ActiveX control, creating an error handler,
flipping or stretching an image, opening an RDO database connection, playing CDs
from the computers CD-ROM drive, and literally hundreds of other topics.

Windows 2000 Server was designed with the administrator and other key customers in mind. Microsoft’s Network operating systems have become increasingly popular over the past several years. Windows NT has found its way into many government agencies, businesses, and other organizations. With its increasing success,
expectations have also increased. Users of the operating system have been demanding more from their network operating systems.
Windows 2000 is a powerful and robust network operating system that features many changes, enhancements, and improvements over earlier versions. In designing Windows 2000 Server, Microsoft has
addressed several areas that are critical to administrators, including improving the system’s overall reliability and scalability, providing a powerful Internet and application server, and providing a powerful end-toend management solution, while reducing total cost of ownership.

This shows you some best practices to keep in mind as you get further along in your programming. Your first programs may be very simple, but when you start getting into more complicated applications, you really need to plan out your program before you start writing the code.
Previous versions of Visual Basic were complete development environments. The latest version of Visual Basic is really only one part of a three-part programming strategy:

Visual Basic® .NET Unleashed
Author: Paul Kimmel
Publisher : Sams Publishing
Pub Date : January 17, 2002
ISBN : 0-672-32234-X
Pages : 784
Book Description
Visual Basic .NET is more than simply Visual Basic 7. Microsoft has almost completely revamped a language that millions of developers know and love, Visual Basic 6. Perhaps the reasons for changing VB so dramatically require a book of their own, but that is a story best left for Microsoft to tell. Some things were clearly missing in past versions of VB. These missing things may not seem apparent to those completely content with Visual Basic as it used to be, but deficits existed.
When you and I are finished, you will see the new power and beauty of Visual Basic .NET and I hope you will agree that it was time for a VB overhaul.
Visual Basic .NET Unleashed is a complete book on the fundamentals of programming in a fully object-oriented language filled with new idioms and capabilities like true inheritance and polymorphism, event handlers, structured exception handling, and Web services. In addition to presenting you with fundamentals, it is the charter of this book to give you extra insight and advice based on real-world experience to help you become more productive with Visual Basic .NET than you ever were able to be with Visual Basic 6.
Visual Basic .NET has everything, including the kitchen sink. Visual Basic .NET presents the reader with more power and potential than any other implementation of Basic ever has.
Visual Basic.NET Unleashed is a complete book on the fundamentals of programming with a fully object-oriented language filled with new idioms and capabilities. In addition to the fundamentals, this book covers:
- Free threading and multithreading
- Inheritance
- Virtual methods and shared methods
- Structured exception handling
- Event handling
- Encapsulation at the namespace level
- Web Services
- .NET Framework compatibility

This book is intended for programmers of all levels. It describes the Visual Basic 2008 language from scratch, so you don ’ t need experience with previous versions of the language. The book also covers many intermediate and advanced topics. It covers topics in enough depth that even experienced developers will discover new tips, tricks, and language details. After you have mastered the language, you may still find useful tidbits throughout the book, and the reference appendixes will help you look up easily forgotten details.
The chapters move quickly through the more introductory material. If you have never programmed before and are intimidated by computers, you might want to read a more introductory book first. If you are a beginner who ’ s not afraid of the computer, you should have few problems learning Visual Basic 2008 from this book.
If you have programmed in any other language, fundamentals such as variable declarations, data types, and arrays should be familiar to you, so you should have no problem with this book. The index and reference appendices should be particularly useful in helping you translate from the languages you already know into the corresponding Visual Basic syntax.
