Product Description

Product Description

Win32 APIs are the bases of Windows 95 and this book gives the basis of what programmers need to know to develop Windows 95 compatible programs. It includes examples with screen shots showing methods of programming specifically for Windows 95 while maintaining compatability with Windows NT.


From the Publisher

Review:
A reviewer for PowerBuilder Developer's Journal wrote: "The most useful series of computer books (outside of those I wrote myself, of course) have been the "Bible series" by Waite Group Press. The Win 95 version is now in three volumes! These three volumes, even at a total cover price of $154.93 (less through amazon) belong on the shelves of every serious Windows 95 and NT programer. That's what expense accounts are for...as a Windows programmer, these books have been invaluable to me." The other two in this series are: Windows 95 Multimedia and ODBC API Bible, and Windows 95 Common Controls and Msssages API Bible.

4.0 out of 5 stars An Indespensible Resource for Win32 Programming, 3 Sep 1999
By A Customer
This book is simply brilliant! It covers absolutely everything about basic Win32 GUI programming: from creating windows to thread syncronization.

I'm new to Win32 programming, but found this book readable, with good explainations and examples, and it continues to be a excellent detailed reference. The CD which complements the book is also very good, offering updates to the book and code which can be used in your own programs.

However, I do regret the lack of information about Common Controls, and a Message Reference, which are in the second book, 'The Windows Common Control and Messages API Bible', which explains why I only give four stars.

Despite this, I would recommend both these books (and possibly the third for those interested in ODBC or Telephoney) for any Win32 programmer, old or new. In one word, indespensible.

5.0 out of 5 stars A good book for serious programmers ., 23 April 1998
By A Customer
I found this book very well written and usefull to programmers who are "into" programming, I mean professional programmers.In order to use this book you should have some knowledge of windows programming otherwise it would be a foreign language book.This book is so cool that i bring it with me in the bath room to do some reading.

5.0 out of 5 stars No nonsense guide for all programmers., 8 April 1998
By A Customer
This book is a must for serious Windows developers. All API function calls are provided with a short description, syntax, parameters and short code snippets to show how to use. Very good addition to your library. Written primarily for C programmers, but useful for other languages as well.
