Murach's C++ 2008

This book lets you master C++ 2008 as quickly and easily as possible by using all the time- and work-saving features of Visual Studio 2008. That's true whether you're a Java developer who wants to learn C++, a C# or Visual Basic developer who wants to master another .NET language, a C++ developer who wants to move into .NET, or a programming novice who's starting from scratch. When you're done, you'll know how to use C++ 2008 to create bulletproof applications like the best professionals do. You'll know how to develop object-oriented applications using business classes, inheritance, polymorphism, interfaces, and generics the way they're used in the real world. You'll know how to compile, run, and enhance legacy C and native C++ code on the .NET platform. You'll be prepared to learn more about native C++ if you should ever need to do that. And you'll have another set of skills that will make you more valuable on the job.
