Customer Reviews

Very good collection of articles

Of course since I was one of the original people that ran CodeGuru before it was sold, it probably comes as little surprise that I would like this book :) However, regardless of my past ties, I do believe this is a fine addition to anyone's tech library as it provides a fine collection of articles/code in a very well organized format. I also like how the editors selected and categorized the articles they selected which could not have been an easy task as CG contains over literally thousands of articles.I do agree with Keith Rule (a valuable contributor to CG over the years) that I wish they had contacted me regarding my own articles that appear in the book as I have more current versions of my code that are not on their site. If anyone wishes to access the updated code, please contact me through my web site at:www . ArcherConsultingGroup . com

Perfect for the Visual C++ programmer

This book covers all the bases and is ideal for both beginners and experienced programmers. I found a lot of neat articles in the book, most I'd not seen when visiting the web site.The organization of the book is well thought out and very easy to navigate. Anyone that is serious about Visual C++ or MFC programming needs this book. You would have to look very hard to find the equivalent to what is in this bookAs well as superb articles, the smattering of forum excerpts and comments make reading each article very informative. I have been programming for many years and have learned a lot just by reading this book. I'll keep it close by from now on. I strongly recommend this book - at any price!

This book rocks!

...This book actually features tons of the best articles on the accompanying web sitem, and what more, it's been edited and optimzied, in terms of explanation and documentation.You will not, and never will, regret after paying small bucks for this book. Use this book whether you're a newbie or advance programmer. For newbies, there's tons of free controls in the book with free source code(royalty free) whereby you can use and learn.For intermmediate folks, you can always use the concise examples in the book as a reference if you're stuck somewhere, or better still, modify the code to suit your needs.For advanced programmers, the code can give you some valuable insight and save you time. After all, there's no such thing as one programmer "who knows all". There's always something to learn.This book is best used as a companion book to a thorough-programming book you have, like Jeff Prosise's "Programming Windows with MFC" etc.
