Customer Reviews

Beyond me

I am fairly new to C++ programming. I bought the authors book, Visual C++ 6 and have been working throught that book. That book was excellant, and I wrote a review for it.This book is really beyond my present capabilities. I gave it a high rating because I can understand what the authors are trying to impart in terms of writing code and finding problems. It is just that I'm not writing that kind of code yet.What I really liked about the book is the presentation style. They seem to be taking real life problems (see parts that refer to student problems) and showing you how to find solutions.

By By Bug

I have programmed in C for 5 years and now C++ for 4 years. I make my living at this. I have run into some really nasty bugs.I bought this book with the hopes that it could help me out with a numeric precision problem I was having on a project. The book did just that!Using an example in the book, I located the problem then took the steps to fix it. Killed that bug!The book is well worth the money if it helps you locate just one problem!

Debugging made easy

Man - I couldn't figure this stuff out till I got this book. It shows how to do really hard debugging stuff with one or two computers. Kewl.

Richard Sternberg

I have taken over five C++ classes from introductory to advanced. None of those classes ever taught me the essential information contained in this book. It is great, but it is not a book to be taken lightly. You have to get into Chapter 1 and stay with it to the end. When you get there you won't regret the journey.One of the best books these authors have done!!!!!

It's about time.

Finally, a thorough book on the use of Visual C++'s Debugger. This book will take you through the essentials of optimization, debugging inline assembly code, dealing with MFC, and goes on to discuss repairing errors in STL code. If you want to get the most out of the debugger in Visual C++, you must have this book!
