Re: Is MFC finished?

[maverick786us]

OK I am bit satisfied that MFC will not die. Even MS have the policy that he does'nt let his invention die that easily. But taking today's S/W market and future S/W market into the consideration, what will be the best choice for me.

For becoming a successful S/W developer, but in my past I have devoted myself for MFC in order to develop windows Based Applications. And the reason why VC++ is the most powerful language is because of its core programming, the ability which lets user directly interact with the H/W device, its registers etc, and MFC plays very short role in development of Core Application, its done using SDK, Win32 Porgamming and pure C++ etc.

What can you suggest me? I am good in MFC, i find it intresting but i am not a master in that. So in what else should i expertise myself besides MFC, Win32 Programming?

Despite being a VC++ Developer, has it become a need to learn .net language too? What are the best options available for me to have a stable career of S/W developer?

Recently I even read in this article
http://www.codeguru.com/forum/showth...1&page=2&pp=15

Stating that "For developing windows based application using MFC instead VC# is like using Assembly language for developing Win32 Applications". What openion do you guys have about it?

Thanks
