Where is main?

[Allen Maki]

I am new to form and controls. I do C++ programming for more than 10 years.
I noticed that there is no main function. Can anybody explain what I am
missing.

I am sure there is some kind of philosophy out there



I would be pleased if you could tell me where I can find more information
about the subject.

It would help if you'd say which language you're using. I *believe*
(though I'm far from a VB.NET expert and would welcome correction) that
VB.NET can "hide" the Main method. In C# it's always visible.

To add to what John told you, in a C++/CLI Windows Forms project, you'll
find main() in the <ProjectName>.cpp file, whereas your event procedures
will be placed in the <FormName>.h file.

Hi John,

I am sorry. I still use C++ in general and V C++ .NET, in particular.

Thanks.

Hi PvdG42,
Thanks for answering my question. You made a good point. In V C++ .net
compiler that I am using, the source file of the form is almost empty, but
the handler is in the bottom of the class block of the form header file.

Hi PvdG42,

Is me again.

Thinking more about what you have told me; I do not have <project Name>.cpp
or <ProjectName>.h files, but I do have <FormName>.cpp and <FormNme>.h

Name>.cpp
or <ProjectName>.h files, but I do have <FormName>.cpp and <FormNme>.h

In Solution Explorer, click the toolbar button "Show All Files" and you
should then see your <ProjectName>.cpp file under Source Files. It's
generated automatically for each C++ WinForms project.

Hi PvdG42,
I am sure I have no ProjectName.cpp. Each form has its own source file. I
found extra two source files:

stdafx.cpp, and
assemblyInfo.cpp

remember I am using V C++ .NET compiler

Thanks again for your help

So, you're not using Visual Studio 2005?
If not, my comments on the location of main() don't apply.
Sorry.
