There are three resources I am compelled to plug that every MFC/VC++ developer should
be aware of. These are covered in detail in section TODO, but I want to bring them to your
attention here too.
- The MFC mailing list - this was sponsored by the world famous David
Elliott, but he burned out on maintaining and moderating the list and now it is sponsored
by Microsoft and moderated by a team of moderators. This is an EXCELLENT way to learn
about the MFC FAQ. Details on joining are in section 2.2.4.
- Visual C++ Developer's Conference - This is a conference 100% about
Visual C++. If you are like me and are getting burned out on every conference suddenly
covering the Internet, but you want to learn more about OLE/MFC/ATL/VC/COM/ActiveX as far
as applications/Windows programming is concerned, then VCDC is for you. Section 2.5 has details or surf to http://www.vcdj.com .
- Visual C++ Developer's Journal - An online monthly magazine about
VC++/MFC - http://www.vcdj.com - excellent stuff. I
wish it was a printed magazine, but online works I guess - better than nothing!
