TERMS OF USE



The Microsoft Foundation Class (MFC) Tutorial produced 

by William Frankhouser (WilzDezign) are subject to the 

following Terms of Use ("TOU").



This tutorial was produced under guidance of Kelvin Sung, 

Associate Professor in the Computing and Software Systems 

program at the University of Washington Bothell and grants 

by the National Science Foundation. This guidance tutorial 

was designed to create reference and direction given in 

conjunction with the book "Essential Concepts for Building 

Interactive Computer Graphics Applications".



While the concept of graphics and event-programming allows 

one to program in various Graphic and GUI API's, these 

tutorials will utilize the Microsoft(R) Visual Studio(R) 

Integrated Development Environment (IDE) using the Microsoft 

Foundations Class (MFC) as the GUI API. 



Each lesson inside the tutorial will include a set of 

prerequisites from previous tutorials, along with occasional 

software and library prerequisites.
