C++ Gui Dev C++
The aim of this Get Started series is to teach you how to write a desktop program in C++ using Win32 and COM APIs.
In the first module, you'll learn step-by-step how to create and show a window. Later modules will introduce the Component Object Model (COM), graphics and text, and user input.
Am a new c programmer. I refer to the code ' Bouncing Ball' which is a GUI, now there is a rectangle created, i managed to change the color the rectangle in the main window and what my may problem is how to make the rectangle fixed and not only increase to be a full rectangle after the ball has hit both ends, how do i achieve that? This shortcoming opened the horizon for developers to pick from a wide variety of GUI library toolkit available in C/C. GTK+ is one of them. It stands for GIMP (GNU Image Manipulation Program) Toolkit and can be used to program modern GUI interfaces.
For this series, it is assumed that you have a good working knowledge of C++ programming. No previous experience with Windows programming is assumed. If you are new to C++, you can find learning material at the Visual C++ Developer Center. (This resource may not be available in some languages and countries.)

Most common quiestion is:
Is there any C++ GUI API?
My answer is MANY.
There are many API's for making GUI applications.
Here are some.
1. WinAPI: (C based)(MFC is C++ based)
Its a great API and the best solution if you are windows programmer. First code will look a bit difficult, but later (after making few apps.) you will see its not so rusty. I like it, because you can do almost everything with it (in windows). The only bad thing is, that you cannot make applications for Linux with it.

2. Qt4 / Qt3 (C++ based)
This is a nice API, for making GUI applications. It works under Linux, Windows and Mac OS X. Its really easy to learn and use. But, until you dont buy licenced version, you will need to add tons of -dll s, to run your application. Qt compiler doesnt work in Vista. And, Qt4 API has a bit complicated way, to get buttons to work, if button holds some more complicated operations(actually you have to make your own SLOT's).

3.GTK+ (C based)
Sorry, but I never tryed it, so Google might help you.

I also think newbies dont know for C++ IDE's. (Developing Enviroviment).
I will make a short description of some
1. Visual Studio 2005 (Visual C++)
This is a beautiful IDE for making console and win32 GUI applications. You can also compile DirectX10 or 9 projects as well. I didn't test it for compiling Qt or GTK+ applications yet.
Affcourse as a Microsoft product isn't free, but it seems to be really safe and stable IDE for Windows Applications.
I really like it, and I recommend it to everyone.
Bittorrent antares auto-tune pro bundle v9 free. Antares – Auto-Tune Pro v9.1.0 (VST, VST3, AAX) WiN x64. Description: Auto-Tune Pro is the most complete and advanced version of Auto-Tune. It includes both automatic mode for real-time pitch correction and effects, and a graph mode for detailed editing of pitch and time. For twenty years, Auto-Tune has been a professional standard for.

2. Code::Blocks
Great for compiling WinAPI, Qt, GTK+, WXWidgets, Ogre, D, C++ console, C console and other projects. I found some bugs, and sometimes there are problems to compile.
It's one of the best FREE IDE's.
Information and download '>HERE
3. Dev-C++
This IDE, written in Delphi is the right place for beginners. It isn't perfect and it allows you 'holes' and 'bugs' in your program.Thats why its good for beginners. VS2005 wouldnt compile most of the code, which Dev-C++ does.
Information and Download '>HERE
SOME LINUX IDE's:
-Code::Blocks
-Anjuta IDE
-QDevelop
Ah, and dont take care about all off my opinions. I prefer VS2005, but If you dont have a money, than choose Code::Blocks or Dev-C++.
