Re: MFC? OWL?

["Mohammad Iqbal" <mi368@index.com.jo>]

MFC stands for Microsoft Foundation Classes while OWL stands for
ObjectWindows Library. Both are designed to simplify Windows programming.
They are not compatible because of their internal structure. You can't
include MFC and OWL in the same program. 

Microsoft and Borland claimed that they simplify Windows programming but
they are not easy to use. You still have to write too much code even with
them.

You can find OWL with Borland C++ compilers beginning from version 2. MFC
can be found in VC++ 1.5 and later. 

You don't need to use MFC and/or OWL in BCB unless you want to compile a
program using one of them. 

I didn't install MFC and OWL support in BCB3 because I don't need them at
all.
