Windows Application Template By Rob Haack This collection of source files and binaries comprises the starting point from which all Microsoft Windows programs that I create begin. As I learned the art of Windows programming, I realized that I was writing the same basic code for every program. This program contains that code. I hope this source code is as useful to others as it is to me. I hereby release the code and binaries in this archive into the public domain. It may be used freely by anyone who wishes in any way they wish, but it contains no warranty - expressed or implied. The contents of this archive (TEMPLATE.ZIP) are as follows: Source Files: TEMPL C Main Program Source (winmain function and message loop) ABOUTBOX C Help|About Dialog Box Function TEMPL RC Resource Definitions (Dialogs, Menu, Icon, Accelerators, etc. ) TEMPL H Main Header File TEMPL DEF Module Definition File Help Files: TEMPL RTF Simple Help File RTF Source TEMPL HLP Compiled Help File Executable: TEMPL EXE The Compiled Program Note: This program is a bit non-traditional in the sense that it uses a dialog box as a main window instead of a "window." I prefer this approach because it is easier to design the main window using a visual tool such as "Resource Workshop." Also, I have intentionally left makefiles, project files, etc. out of this archive in an effort to keep it platform independent. It is the users responsibility to figure out how to use his/her development tool to compile the source included in the archive. Enjoy, Rob Haack rhaack@polaris.unm.edu
