A book written by programmers, "Professional Visual C++ ActiveX Intranet Programming" is a guide to creating custom ActiveX components to allow an Intranet to publish non-standard data in a customized format, using controls that allow presentation of and interaction with that data in a completely custom way. The book is for experienced Visual C++ programmers who have used MFC in some depth.
Windows CE is the version of Windows specifically developed for handheld PCs and other small devices. Out concurrently with the new release of CE2 and the first appearance of Visual Basic for CE, this title meets the demand for handheld application development.
Programmers are in a dilemma--they must learn COM to stay abreast of the developments in Windows, but it's hard to understand and use them. This book is dedicated to teaching MFC programmers what COM is and how to use it. It follows the proven learn-by-doing format, and in the course of the book the reader develops a complete application from both OLE servers and components.
This book is for Win32 programmers taking up the challenge of building distributed applications using the new component object model. Although there is strong emphasis on the practicalities of distributed object design and usage, the text is also a complete examination of programming under COM. Readers should be very familiar with C++ and preferably have experience of using MFC. The code is described and developed using Visual C++5, MFC, and ATL.
The MFC is a collection of C++ classes that programmers can reuse to create the main body of their code that all Windows applications have in common. This is the perfect tutorial to Windows programming with MFC and develops a complete and realistic example application in MFC.
Visual C++ 5 is the latest upgrade to Microsoft's leading C++ development environment and the Microsoft Foundation Classes are the industry standard framework for developing Windows applications using C++. This title covers all new MFC classes, along with extensive OLE coverage, and deep instruction in complex issues such as message maps and multi-threading.
Optimization problems in practice are diverse and evolve over time, giving rise to - quirements both for ready-to-use optimization software packages and for optimization software libraries, which provide more or less adaptable building blocks for app- cation-specific software systems. In order to apply optimization methods to a new type of problem, corresponding models and algorithms have to be “coded” so that they are accessible to a computer. One way to achieve this step is the use of a mod- ing language. Such modeling systems provide an excellent interface between models and solvers, but only for a limited range of model types (in some cases, for example, linear) due, in part, to limitations imposed by the solvers. Furthermore, while m- eling systems especially for heuristic search are an active research topic, it is still an open question as to whether such an approach may be generally successful. Modeling languages treat the solvers as a “black box” with numerous controls. Due to variations, for example, with respect to the pursued objective or specific problem properties, - dressing real-world problems often requires special purpose methods. Thus, we are faced with the difficulty of efficiently adapting and applying appropriate methods to these problems. Optimization software libraries are intended to make it relatively easy and cost effective to incorporate advanced planning methods in application-specific software systems. A general classification provides a distinction between callable packages, nume- cal libraries, and component libraries.
The most complete, concise reference available for Visual C++ 5, this professional guide is packed with everything you need to write and debug programs - all in a convenient, encyclopedic format.
Readers can find what they need fast in this comprehensive alphabetized reference. The first guide to combine the best of both worlds, the book gives in-depth coverage of the Visual C++ environment and the C/C++ programming fundamentals as they relate to Visual C++ as well as Windows 95/NT program development.
This book is for anyone who wants to learn C++ and Windows programming with Visual C++5 and MFC. The title contains a complete C++ tutorial from first principles. Learn how to design and write object-oriented programs, understand how and why MFC works, find out how to make Windows work for you, and create your own ActiveX controls using MFC and ATL.
