• C++ GUI help needed
    3 replies, posted
I'm trying to convert a C++ console application in Visual Studio 2010 into a GUI. In the code, I have different modes that I want to be able to access through different buttons. I also would like text boxes to store the variables I want. The console coding is already done. I tried out the Windows Forms Applications (WFA) and created all the buttons and the text boxes but have no idea how to link my .cpp files with the forms. Can anyone help me out? Much appreciated, thanks! [editline]22nd March 2011[/editline] I'm open to alternatives too. I understand that WFA isn't really all that good.
Check out either MFC (built-in to VS), wxWidgets or Qt. Or others I may have forgotten about.
WxWidgets sucks. The console app is CLR or win32 native?
[QUOTE=ovator;28755873]WxWidgets sucks. The console app is CLR or win32 native?[/QUOTE] WxWidgets is good for small stuff that doesn't need masses of all kinds of classes and functions that you'll never need.
