Introduction Various functions of C ++ development tools

A language can be easily promoted and circulated only when it is an interface-based development tool. Visual C ++ 6.0 is a C ++ development tool launched by Microsoft. It is the most widely used development tool. This section describes the development environment and process of Visual C ++ 6.0.

Introduction to Visual C ++ 6.0 development tools
As mentioned in the previous section, C ++ is just an ISO standard, the Standard specifies the basic syntax of the C ++ development tool and the semantics corresponding to these syntaxes can be simply understood as the meaning of the syntax ). It is not enough to apply C ++ in actual programming.

Fortunately, there are already many commercial companies, open-source organizations, foundations, and even individuals that follow the C ++ standard to implement on different platforms. The compliance here does not fully comply with the C ++ standard, mainly due to the following reasons:
1) historical reasons. Some compilers have not yet implemented C ++ official standards, or the C ++ standards implemented according to older standards are also updated ).
2) platform reasons. It is difficult or unnecessary to implement certain features of the standard on some platforms.
3) for commercial purposes. Some commercial companies may add features that they think are feasible or better.
4) Other technical reasons.

In any case, the available C ++ compiler implementations are already rich, and there are several implementations on the Windows platform, commonly used are the C ++ compiler implementation that comes with Visual C ++ 6.0, and the C ++ compiler implementation that comes with Borland C ++ Builder. In terms of the degree of implementation of the standard, the latter is better.

• Big debate: Java is not a C ++ closure, making Java simpler

Tip: Visual C ++ and Borland C ++ Builder are common C ++ development tools in Windows. The former is developed by Microsoft and widely used. This book describes how to use Visual C ++ 6.0 for common Windows programming. In addition to a C ++ compiler, Visual C ++ 6.0 also contains other Visual development tools, auxiliary tools, and some C ++ libraries, these will be introduced in the relevant chapters of this book.

Visual C ++ 6.0 development process
The Visual C ++ 6.0 compiler is responsible for compiling the C ++ source code into an assembly file and converting it into an obj file.) then, it uses the connector to connect the related intermediate files, generate executable binary files. The process is as follows:
1) The source program is handed over to the compiler after preprocessing.
2) If the code is correct, the compiler will generate an assembler and then generate several obj files for the target program ).
3) The linker connects the target program to generate executable programs.

Therefore, I think "interfaces" have actually formed a culture in object-oriented systems. However, C ++, a programming leader, does not have an interface. Human Thinking is powerful. For example, the MS approach is to use struct as an interface. Therefore, I think the difference between struct and class in C ++ development tools is not in use, not in syntax sugar, but in thought, framework conventions, and other aspects.
