About kWnd

What kWnd is ?

kWnd is a set of C++ classes that encapsulates Win32 API windows management (dialogs and windows). With kWnd the creation of a graphical Win32 program is easy and fast: only overrides a class and defines some methods.

What kWnd isn't ?

The main purpose of kWnd is to simplify Win32 windows management. So, kWnd doesn't contain tons of classes such MFC or other similar librairies which encapsulate any Win32 objects.

  • Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 / 2002 / 2003.
