Reviews Book Description Supercharge your MFC development of enhanced Windows User Interface (UI) controls with pseudo-multiple inheritance. Multiple Inheritance is a powerful technique familiar to C++ programmers, but has limited usage in MFC and, sometimes with unexpected results. Pseudo-multiple inheritance is achieved through aggregate subclassing. Because message processing is the core of Windows programs, Galbraith uses a sophisticated, yet generic, message handler that can be used with any window ( eliminating the need for complicated MFC message maps. This subclassing method works directly with MFC objects. If MFC should do the work, it lets the message pass through; if you want your own class extensions to do the work, then the C++ wrappers handle the messages themselves. Galbraith shows you how these methods of pseudo-multiple inheritance make it easier to customize the performance and appearance of Windows controls, including: * A Device Independent Bitmap (DIB) API that can be used to extend the MFC CBitmap class* A Background class to display different backgrounds depending on whether the window has focus/activation or loses focus/activation. * A Caption class that provides sophisticated control over customized caption displays The CD-ROM contains all programming code, example programs that demonstrate the functionality of each class extension, and an API and Class Reference providing cross-references to all the code. Author Bio: Jeffery Scott Galbraith is a senior software developer for IDX Systems Inc, expert in C++, Visual C++, and MFC. He is an experienced teacher and programming consultant, currently engaged in web technology solutions for the Internet. Synopsis
