Many of the examples and assignments in the book will utilize a “quick and dirty” graphical programming library supplied by the authors. They have titled this library “Easy Win” and typically abbreviate it EZWin. It is a simple encapsulation of many GUI components into an object-oriented API that makes it simple to demonstrate many concepts in C++.
In order to use the API, however, the programmer must have the definition files (headers, or .H files) as well as the library(ies) that provide the functionality. The authors have provided both for Borland v5.02 and Microsoft’s v5 (and later) compilers.
Please download and install the following as appropriate:
Definition Files: headers.zip (11KB)
Libraries:
Borland C++ v5.02: bc5.zip (774KB)
MS Visual C++ v5, v6: vc5.zip (492KB)
It is up to the student to correctly install these files. They are available on this site as a convenience.
