[comp.windows.ms] C++ and MS Windows SDK

swonk@ccicpg.UUCP (Glen Swonk) (11/16/89)

I see from the advertisments that the latest ZORTECH V2.0
C++ compiler "supports" windows development. Can anyone explain
what this means and possibly comment on how to use the
features of the language for developing the windows oriented
programs.

Also, I see in the literature that this should allow for one
to develop classes that will allow portability between Windows
and OS/2. Any comments?

thanks

I believe the same ad also claimed that a source level C++ debugger was now
available. Could someone please clarify whether this can be used for Windows
apps as well?

Thanks,

The Zortech C++ debugger is only useful for debugging DOS programs. It does
not work with either Windows, PM or OS/2, even though the compiler supports
them.
