Windows Development For Unix Coders?
lgritz asks: "I've developed almost exclusively on various brands of Unix for the last 12 or so years, but am in an unfortunate predicament where some of my software needs to run under Windows also. I continue to develop mainly under Linux, but need the software to port and I find that my knowledge of Windoze is so sketchy that I spend way too much time screwing around with it. I think this is mainly because I just don't know the equivalent nomenclature and idioms. Does anybody have a good reference (a book, preferably) that's specifically meant to introduce Windows programming to experienced Unix programmers? Something that'll tell me, for example, which VC++ compiler options are roughly equivalent to the things I use under Unix, or what the equivalents to dlopen is, or how to launch another process at the end of a pipe, and so on? I'm looking for roughly the equivalent of Stevens' "Advanced Programming in the Unix Environment," except geared toward showing me the equivalent idioms in Windows-ese."
