When you need fast, specific information on a general purpose Application Programming Interface (API) function, turn to this authoritative new resource. Written by noted programming experts, the second volume in the Osborne Windows Programming Series provides the complete information you need on general purpose APIs. Whether you are programming for Windows, Windows NT, or Win32, you'll refer to this book again and again. Here's why:
It covers the general purpose API functions. These are the functions that every Windows programmer uses on a daily basis.
The general purpose API functions are organized by category, making it easy to get an overview of each subsystem.
In addition to numerous smaller examples, every chapter includes a full programming example that shows you how to actually use the functions.
The book covers all commonly used API functions and subsystems, including accelerators, bitmaps, the Clipboard, controls, dialog boxes, file I/O, fonts, the keyboard, messages, the mouse, painting the screen, and window management, just to name a few!
It contains descriptions and explanations of the various types and structures used by each function, and includes full cross-references to other related functions.
Because it contains hundreds and hundreds of functions, the Windows API is difficult to grasp in totality. Unlike other references, which simply describe each function in isolation, this book shows you how the various functions relate to one another, and how to use them together, successfully. Only Osborne gives you this subsystem-by-subsystem analysis of the API.
Your ability to use the Windows API is the key to effective Windows programming. With this volume in hand, you'll have the most intensive, up-to-date, and useful resource available on Windows' general purpose API functions.
