Synopsis:

There are almost as many programming languages these days as there are dialects at a Washington cocktail party. Among them all, however, C++ remains a favorite, especially for beginners. C++ is fast, powerful, fully compiled, and portable. If you ve thought about learning programming, it s a great place to start. And if you re already experienced with C++, you probably know a well–organized reference guide makes a programmer s life a lot easier.

C++ All–In–One Desk Reference For Dummies is a guide that grows with you. It s organized into seven convenient minibooks, each devoted to a particular aspect of C++. So whether you re a beginner just learning the lingo, or a veteran who wants to find out how to write a Web service in C++ .NET by using the Managed Extension to C++ (and who actually knows what that means!) you can find the answers quickly and easily.

If you re about to venture into C++ programming for the first time, Minibook I begins at the beginning and covers all the basic stuff you need to know. You ll be ready to join the big kids when you reach the subsequent minibooks, which cover

• Understanding objects and classes, including UML and design patterns
• Fixing problems, debugging your code, and choosing a good debugger
• Advanced C++ programming
• Reading and writing files, with coverage of stream programming
• C++ .NET, which shows you how to program for Microsoft s latest product, create Web services, build assemblies, and more
• Visual Studio 6.0 and MFC, featuring a discussion of writing software for Windows with Microsoft Foundation classes

No matter how accomplished a C++ programmer you are   or aren t   there will always be times when you need a reference guide. C++ All–In–One Desk Reference For Dummies gets you started with C++ programming, takes you as far as you want to go, and makes it easy to find out more whenever you want.
