Re: [Dev-C++] Windows Applications

[Jason H. <jas...@bt...>]

I would suggest that there is still value in learning Win32 and the related extensions to it. The
reason I say this is because .NET is currently only supported by Windoze XP and 2000 AFAICT. Many
people today still prefer to stick with the older OS's. I have to say I'm more interested in what
Sun will come up with to rival .NET, as Java is supported on many OS's and Sun, unlike Microsoft,
doesn't have a vested interest in any particular OS and system.

My best advise would be wait and see what the future has to offer and hedge your bets, i.e. learn as
much as you can in any language/environment.

Regards, Jason.

With the new .NET i would not recommend you lose your time learning
legacy stuff (Win32, MFC, e.t.c.). So the API i recommend to learn is
.NET . Now as for books/tutotrials check my links page at:
