Visual C++is a powerful visual software development tool. Since Microsoft introduced Visual C++1.0 in 1993, with its new versions coming out, Visual C++has become the preferred tool for professional programmers to develop software. Although Microsoft launched Visual C++ NET (Visual C++7.0), but its application is limited to Windows 2000, Windows XP and Windows NT4.0. Therefore, in practice, most of them are based on Visual C++6.0.

Basic Introduction

Visual C++6.0 is not only a C++compiler, but also a visual integrated development environment (IDE) based on the Windows operating system. Visual C++6.0 is composed of many components, including editors, debuggers, program wizards, AppWizard, class wizards and other development tools. These components form a harmonious development environment through a set of components called Developer Studio. On the basis of Visual C++6.0 Enterprise Edition, it is made by integrating the official SP6 upgrade patch! No serial number is required, and you can use it after installation, without patching again!

Main parts

1. Developer Studio, an integrated development environment, is where 99% of our daily work is done. In addition, its title is "Microsoft Visual C++", so many people take it for granted that it is Visual C++. In fact, although Developer Studio provides a good editor and many wizards, it does not have any function of compiling and linking programs. The heroes who really complete these works will be introduced later. We also know that Developer Studio is not specially used for VC. It is also used for VB, VJ, VID and other compatriots of Visual Studio family. So don't treat Developer Studio as Visual C++, it is just a shell of Visual C++at best. Please remember this!

　　2.MFC。 Theoretically, MFC is not specific to Visual C++either. Borland C++, C++Builder and Symantec C++can also handle MFC. At the same time, writing code with Visual C++does not mean that MFC must be used. As long as you are willing, there is no limit to writing SDK programs with Visual C++, or using STL and ATL. However, Visual C++is originally built for MFC, and many features and language extensions in Visual C++are also designed for MFC. Therefore, using Visual C++instead of MFC is equivalent to abandoning a large part of the functions in Visual C++. However, Visual C++is not equal to MFC.

　　3.Platform SDK。 This is the essence and soul of Visual C++and the entire Visual Studio, although we rarely have direct access to it. Generally speaking, the Platform SDK is based on the Microsoft C/C++compiler (not Visual C++, see clearly), together with MASM, supplemented by other tools and documentation. As mentioned above, Developer Studio does not have the function of compiling programs, so who does this work? CL, NMAKE, and many other command line programs, which we cannot see are the cornerstone of Visual Studio.

Installation method

1. Unzip vc6_setup

2. Open the vc6_setup folder and find SETUP EXE double click installation;

3. The installation has officially started. Next step.

4. Accept the agreement and take the next step.

5. Just input 1 for the product ID all the time. I forget the number of digits. Then fill in the name and company name, and click Next.

6. The enterprise version is selected by default. Click Next.

7. You can reset the installation path, and then go to the next step.

8. Automatic installation started.

common problem

Some friends said that "Error spawning error" appeared after installation. You can see some solutions found by the following green software:

Click VC "TOOLS" ->"Option" ->"Directories" to reset "Exclusive Fils, Include Files, Lib rar Y Files, Source Files. In many cases, the drive letter may be different (for example, your VC is installed in C, but these paths are all in D). It is OK to change them.
