NT PROGRAMMING FOR C PROGRAMMERS
| Course Description |
|
This course takes a comprehensive look at Win32, the native user mode NT programming interface. It is an advanced course intended for programmers implementing sophisticated applications and for doing systems programming. The student should have previous experience with Windows programming, either at the C/SDK level or using C++ and a class library such as MFC. Attendees will get an understanding of the programming techniques used to unlock the full potential of Windows NT as a powerful application platform. The course programmatically explores the nature of NT with hands on labs and demonstrations. The majority of this course is directly applicable to Windows95/98 programming. References are provided both to books and magazines.
The course covers the most powerful and critical features of Windows NT including the Registry, Processes, Threads, Synchronization, Security, Asynchronous I/O, and many others. Developers will also be exposed to the general principles of programming the Win32 interfaces as well as practical tips on how NT works. The course wraps up with a perspective of Windows NT in the industry today and tomorrow and a look at evolving Windows NT technologies.
The course includes hands-on programming examples and labs. Students will complete several labs in class, each exercising a specific Win32 programming technique.
Course Length: 5 Days
Course Tuition: $1990 (US)
