    Hi,
    I'm use dev c++ to do my homework. But when I want to make a software, I think it's difficult than MS VS: how to build a GUI( or can I "design" by mouse a GUI for my software just like in MS VS)?
    thanks!

      Dev-Cpp is not drag and drop to my knowledge like Microsoft Visual Studio can be.

    There are many ways of creating a GUI for example

    1. using the win32 api .(this can only be used on windows operating system)
    2. using microsoft foundation classes (MFC) (windows operating system only)
    3. other cross platform libraries (do a google search)
      <p>
      Take some time off and see how to use these tools. A good starting place would
      be the forgers win32 tutorial
      <p>
      http://winprog.org/tutorial/<p>
      Now MS VS allows you to "drag and drop" create a GUI then
      automatically generate this code for you (devcpp doesnot automatically
      generate code).<p>you have to manually create the gui from
      scratch.However devcpp is free while MS VS proffesional is for sale, so i
      still use devcpp :)<P> DEO<br> wandegeya , uganda
