Fundamental Question in Organizing

[sgsawant]

When I create an empty Win32 application in VC++, I see 3 folder icons to my left (in the environment):

Header files
Resource files
Source files

I create main.cpp in the "source files" and a header file (say) temp.h in the "header files" folder. Till now I have been writing the functions code right in temp.h
Say if I want to create a file temp.cpp which contains the functions code. Where should I put it into?

Resource files?

Please also give organizing tips that you may know. I would be grateful if you could point me to the appropriate links also.

This is what the cpp file is meant for, not the h file. And you are supposed to put it in the source file-folder.

Thanks! But what is the resource folder for?

Thanks! But what is the resource folder for?

Resources. Dialog templates, menus, bitmaps, cursors, string table, icons, etc.

Resources ? Like the name suggests... If you include images/binaries etc in your project, they will show up in that folder.
