SCRIBBLE: Illustrates Use of Foundation Class Libraries

  • Article

SCRIBBLE is the tutorial sample application discussed in Visual C++®Tutorials. The SCRIBBLE sample directory has seven subdirectories that correspond to different steps in the tutorial. Each subdirectory contains the complete sources for a given step.

SCRIBBLE provides simple illustrations of a wide breadth of MFC features. Step 1 through Step 6 of the give the best introduction to the following framework features.

  • Application objects

  • Documents, views, and document templates

  • Commands, message maps, and command user interface updating

  • MDI (multiple document interface) frame and child windows

  • Toolbars and status bars

  • Update hints from documents to views

  • Dialogs, data exchange, and validation

  • Scroll view

  • Splitter window

  • Printing and print preview

  • Context-sensitive Help

Refer to other samples for illustrations of advanced use of the above features, and for illustrations of many other features not covered in the tutorial.

Step 7, , of the Scribble Tutorial adds another step to the development of the SCRIBBLE application by introducing OLE Visual Editing server functionality.
