Re [Dev-C++] Windows Non-MFC programming site

[SpiderMan <Spi...@pr...>]

    The code at cpp-programming works, have you looked at: =
http://www.relisoft.com/win32/index.htm the explanations are sometimes =
awkward, but the code is fabulous. It is a good follow up to =
cpp-programming's tutorial.

  Hello everybody,

  Just thought, since I'd asked for links pertaining to C++ programming, =
that I would share a pretty slick site I came across.

  It's a non-MFC oriented (read API based) site regarding Windows =
programming.  I haven't yet sorted out whether the examples will work =
without modification on Dev-C++; however, I'm impressed with the =
simplicity and scope of the material thus far.

  If anybody would like to check it out, here's the link:

  P.S.
  By the way, in playing with Resource Scripts in Dev-C++, I seem to =
have encountered a difficulty.  In adding a dialog resource (even when =
using the defaults provided) I get an error back on compilation (from =
windres).  It always points to the line following the initial 100 =
DIALOG... line (I'm assuming here that the error number refers to =
line... I moved things around a bit and it seemed consistant).

  The project was a simple C WinMain project (I'm not sure if this =
factors in or not).  I only know that if I add any other type of =
resource that I get no errors in the compiling of the resource script.  =
I've been trying to find documentation on windres (without any good =
hits, aside from command line options...), and I can't get to =
bloodshed.net (maybe this is a known issue?).

  Any help here would be appreciated.  I was developing a little class =
building utility in RapidQ (a nifty little BASIC style language - now in =
limbo as it's author was picked up by a software company [Ah!  So dreams =
do come true! 8-)]) but have found that I would now rather just "bite =
the bullet" and use C++.  However, my inability to create anything more =
than simple Windows interfaces is a little frustrating (I think I can =
handle the underlying C++, but there's only one way to tell! 8-)

  Thanks again.
