Short for Microsoft Foundation Classes, a large library of C++ classes developed by Microsoft. For Windows -based applications written in C++, MFC provides an enormous headstart. One of the hardest parts of developing C++ programs is designing a logical hierarchy of classes. With MFC, this work has already been done.
MFC is bundled with several C++ compilers and is also available as part of the Microsoft Developer’s Network (MSDN).
Key Features of the MFC Library:
Class libraries for windows are available from other compiler manufactures, but Microsoft claims several real advantages for its MFC library, including the following:
An extensive exception-handling design that makes application code less subjects to failure. Support for “out of memory” and so on is provided.
Better diagnostics support through the ability to send information about objects to a file. Also included is the ability to validate member variables.
Complete support for all windows functions, controls, messages, GDI (graphics device interface) graphics primitives, menus, and dialog boxes.
Determination of the type of a data objects at run time. This allows for the dynamic manipulation of a field when classes are instantiated.
Elimination of many switch/case statements that are a source of error. All messages are mapped to member functions within a class. This direct message-to-method mapping is available for all messages.
Small code with a fast implementation. As mentioned earlier, the MFC library adds only a small amount of objects code overhead and executes almost as quickly as conventional C windows applications.
Support for the Component Objects Model (COM).
Use of the same naming convention as the conventional windows API. Thus, the action of a class is immediately recognized by its name.
