wow, how long i have waited for good WINAPI Tutorials on Youtube. Thank you very much!

[jakubszumilak]

To anyone who's still struggling with some errors at this point, make sure to download "Programming classic applications in C++" (or so) extension, just open Visual Studio Installer, click Modify and find the right extension. Also, when creating a new project, don't create blank, go for Classic Windows Application instead. This is what helped me with solving the problem, I'm not sure if downloading the extension is necessary tho

[LukasTeeVee]

I can't believe you're explaining this. You are my hero :D

[alaahoussen]

thanks very much, I love your style, you explain slowly and you repeat and your video is too
small hope you continue these amazing videos

[lionelwolf-guard]

How about sharing what compiler you are using???

[VictorOrdu]

Amazing! I've been looking for this kind of simple demonstration. Thanks!

[marshalcraft]

would be great if someone could make a video explaining the windows driver model and some of the msdn syntax. for example in using some of the functions it shows the variable or obects that are inputs to the functions but im not certain if they must be declaired before hand or that they are variables i need to find somewheres and put in the functions (example HwDeviceExtension) or are they just declared in the function in the msdn syntax but i can declare them anywheres and then put them in adn the function will update them as part of the function.

Nice intro, and good job with the new c++ tutorials.

[iFrog]

Can you recommend any books for learning C++ Windows programming ? Perhaps, as a bonus - - Console Gaming Books .... and I thank you kindly,

[WaywardElement]

Quick question, at 1:04, you say to make it an empty project but would it make any difference if you were to just make it an empty project from the start? (at 0:47 I mean)

[thinhnguyenvanquan]

Thank you man! You're my life saver.

[Pianissimo]

3:12 when I run with the exact same code, these are the errors I get:
1>E:\Visual studio\c++\first winmain project\Debug\first winmain project.exe : fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals

[WowplayerMe]

Is the source code for these projects available for downloading?

[TheGenericNerd]

When I look up WinMain on MSDN, it is preceded by CALLBACK instead of WINAPI.  Is there a difference between these function definitions?

[DanielOliveira]

Oh! Exactly 40, 000 views! Now I can rest in peace...

[kartoffel]

in the "int show(md))" It says its undifined

[TheMitic]

can i use sfml with this to create level editor for my game ?

[arunvs]
