Talk:Windows Programming/Archive2005-2006

.NET
I was going to use this section, but decided not to.

Section Y: .NET Platform Programming
The point has been made that .NET is cross-platform, and therefore shouldn't be discussed (or not discussed much) in a windows-only text. --Whiteknight


 * What is .NET?
 * Programming Windows in .NET
 * Forms
 * C# and VB.NET


 * Visual Basic .NET (external)
 * ASP.NET (external)

Templates and Resources
The following templates and categories are specifically designed for use with this particular book:


 * /Page
 * /Stub
 * :
 * /Stubs

More information on each can be found on the respective pages. --Whiteknight (talk) (projects) 17:05, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

menus?
I can't find anything on adding menus to windows programs in this wikibook.


 * There is a little bit about it in the "Resources" section and appendix (at least there should be). We probably need to include a chapter about Menus as well, including how to create them without resource scripts, and how to edit/manage them. I'll see if I can add some about it later today. --Whiteknight (talk) (projects) 13:38, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

Suggested Mergers from C++ Programming
C++_Programming/Win32, C++_Programming/MS_Visual_Studio and C++_Programming/MS_Visual_Studio/Using_Static_Libraries all deal with Windows programming or Windows programming tools and should be merged with this book since its focus is on Windows programming. It would also make it easier on C++ Programming, by making the focus more clearer by allowing its focus to remain on the broader subject of C++ rather then trying to be everything to everyone. --darklama 02:39, 20 October 2006 (UTC)


 * I do think that all the libraries you said should b mergd, but not this. Thats cause those are of C++ programming, and this is of C programming.  --Windymager 16:47, 16 December 2006 (UTC)


 * This book currently contains mostly C code, but the stated scope of this book is to include C++ and VB code as well. I have added most of the content so far, and I dont have much expertise in C++ or VB, so I havent been able to add it. I do think, however, that the C++ book should contain general aspects about the language, and shouldnt have to cover all sorts of proprietary information such as the Windows-specific things. --Whiteknight (talk) (projects) 22:40, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
