Product Description
The MFC is a class library that provides a collection of C++ classes, taking the drudgery out of writing software for Windows. The classes are targeted at the features your application needs – such as status bars, the implementations required for multiple document windows, and support for context-sensitive help – which means that using MFC saves you coding time which you can use to implement other features in your application.
This book will give a detailed discussion of the majority of classes present in Microsoft’s application framework library, and the tools provided by Visual C++ 6. Throughout the book, you will learn how all of the features in the environment come together with the features of MFC, giving you tremendous power to develop your application.

One of the most overlooked aspects of software development is testing and debugging. Keith Bugg’s Debugging Visual C++ Windows offers a wealth of expertise on fixing and preventing bugs in C++.

In early chapters, the author looks at the sources of errors in C++ programs, whether machine (such as round-off errors), compiler, run-time, or logic and design errors, and offers his expertise in minimizing them. A chapter on memory management functions–a common source of trouble in C++–demystifies what goes on underneath the hood. Further chapters look at the powerful debugging features available in Visual C++, such as assertions and built-in debugging functions that most developers probably aren’t aware of. The author’s expertise really shines in this section, offering some invaluable hints that should be a part of every Microsoft Foundation Classes (MFC) programmer’s repertoire.
