[comp.windows.ms.programmer] What/Where is a good source for Windows Code Samples?

gillham@edmund.cs.andrews.edu (Andrew Gillham) (04/24/91)

I'm looking for source code for various windows functions.
Stuff I'm REALLY interested in includes subdirectory tree/file browsers, 
multiple document interface, Bitmap/Vector graphics, and serial port
communication. 

If you know of a local BBS or an ftp site that has a lot of Windows source
code, PLEASE reply! (via E-mail, I can summarize)

I'm just getting started with Windows and need all the help I can get!

Thanks already!!

You might want to check out the Microsoft Systems Journal.  The issue I 
read (June-ish 1990) had a lot of useful MS Windows code in it (though that


(though the theme of that issue was Windows - don't know how much windows
code is in an "ordinary" issue).

You might also want to check out TECH Specialist later this year.  Our
goal is to have 1-2 good Windows articles per issue.  For example, the
June issue will contain a wrapper for non-Windows C programs that takes
over stdio functions like printf and does "the right thing" in Windows
(same idea as the WinCrt unit in Turbo Pascal for Windows).  The result
isn't always pretty, but it's a painless way to get a certain class of
C programs up and running with Windows.

I am biased;  I work for the magazine.
