Need Web reference and forums to learn C++

[Geek]

Hi guys,

I have a question regarding learning C++. I graduated with a Computer
Science degree. recently I have found out that I need to learn
languages better and professionaly. I am interested in learning for
windows programming also I have a questions where should I start. I
know the basics of most of the languages. I need to learn how to put
the parts together such as that I can have a working software package
rather then small pieces of softwares. I am also interested in learning
how to extend the webservers, and functionality. Any help in this
regard will be appreciated. Can you please also refer any such good
forums regarding programming or magazines of web resources. Thanks!

Oh goody. Yet another college has produced a philosopher, ready to get a gig
in the Philosophy Department of some big company.

Download this:

http://rubyforge.org/projects/rubyinstaller/

It is a very light, very flexible language called Ruby, and that installer
comes with several windowing libraries. Spark one up and dive in.

Yes you will also need to learn C++ (especially as the rate at which Java
and C# is tanking projects becomes clear). You will also need to learn how
to write clean programs, how OO works, and how windows work, without
getting mired in the raw details that C++ forces you to consider.

Right; programs need installers, data files in simple formats (such as XML),
and ways to glue large modules together simply. Research ActiveX.

Google for a tutorial on CGI. There are zillions of those, including for
Ruby.
