Presents essential guidelines for globalizing and localizing your software with examples in Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0. Demonstrates how to produce high-quality, ready to localize editions of Windows-based programs with the Microsoft Visual C++ system.
In today's wired world, software must work for a global audience. International Programming for Microsoft Windows compiles hard-to-find information on internationalizing software using C, C++, and Windows 2000. If you're a developer or manager planning international software development, this book can show you how to take your software to new markets successfully.
International Programming excels in two ways. First, it delivers a fine historical tour of the world's character sets (used to represent character data) from old mainframe standards (like IBM's EBCDIC) to ASCII, ANSI, and the current Unicode standard. Like many other aspects of computing, international support only gets better with time. Second, the book addresses built-in support for Standard C, and then moves on to the improved internationalization available in Standard C++ (with support for locales and facets).
The heart of this book is its extensive material on the international features and Unicode available in Windows 2000, which comes with support for dozens of languages. (This text shows how Windows supports both non-Unicode and Unicode character sets with two sets of APIs for all text functions.) The book highlights features in Windows 2000 that facilita Read more... Categories
