Ivor Horton's Beginning Visual C++ 2008 by:
Ivor HortonThis book is the latest edition of one of the bestselling of all books
on the C++ language and Visual C++. The author, Ivor Horton, has a
loyal following who love his approach to teaching programming
languages. In this book, Horton repeats the formula that made the
current edition so popular: he teaches both the Standard C++ language
itself as well as Microsoft Visual C++.
The book is
designed to provide a comprehensive introduction to both the Standard
C++ language and to Visual C++ 2008. The book has been thoroughly
updated (more than 200pdated, with 100 new pages) for the 2008 release.
This book shows novice C++ programmers how to build real-world
applications using Visual C++. No previous programming experience is
required. The author uses numerous step-by-step programming examples to
guide readers through the ins and outs of C++development. His tutorial
approach has proved popular with more than 100,000 readers---they look
to Ivor Horton for the most thorough and accessible introduction to the
C++ language and to Visual C++.
The author will fully cover
new features of the 2008 release--in particular, support for the
Standard Template Library. He will also enhance coverage of C++/CLI
enumerations and the Unicode option; plus completely replace all
screenshots to confirm with the latest look and feel of Visual Studio
Orcas and Windows Vista.
