Software Application Development: A Visual C++, MFC, and STL Tutorial (Chapman & Hall/CRC Computer & Information Science Series)


Product Description
This book provides a detailed account of the software development process using Visual C++, MFC, and STL. It covers everything from the design to the implementation of all software modules, resulting in a demonstration application prototype which may be used to efficiently represent mathematical equations, perform interactive and intuitive model-building, and conduct control engineering experiments. All computer code is included, so developers can extend and reuse the software modules for their own project work. The book� s tutorial-like approach empowers students and practitioners with the knowledge and skills required to perform quality, real-world software engineering.Software Application Development: A Visual C++, MFC, and STL Tutorial (Chapman & Hall/CRC Computer & Information Science Series) Review
This book isn't even a re-hash of the venerable Wrox Press book on Professional MFC with Visual C++ 6. 14 years later, you would expect a new book to deal heavily with Visual Studio 2010's version of MFC, C++ and the STL. But NO! This book chose to use Visual C++ 6.0 (and mention it heavily...), which is no longer supported by Microsoft, isn't C++ standards compliant (it PREDATED the C++ standard!), and doesn't use a modern version of MFC or the STL.So, folks, save your money! The book that you really want doesn't exist yet. Nothing to see here. Move along...
What we (the community) really needs is an updated version similar to the Wrox Press 'Professional MFC with Visual C++ 6.0'. I wonder when the publishers will figure that out and produce the book that's needed, rather than useless re-treads like this?
Most of the consumer Reviews tell that the "Software Application Development: A Visual C++, MFC, and STL Tutorial (Chapman & Hall/CRC Computer & Information Science Series)" are high quality item. You can read each testimony from consumers to find out cons and pros from Software Application Development: A Visual C++, MFC, and STL Tutorial (Chapman & Hall/CRC Computer & Information Science Series) ...
