Auto C is a practical and easy to use C IDE. It is intended for anyone who wants to work with the C programming language under Windows. Drawing controls on a form using a mouse is all you need to do to create the skeleton for a generic SDK C Windows Application. Use a WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) design environment. Auto C works with Windows 2000, Windows XP and later.
Auto C is an add-in for WoLoSoft International's SuperEdi, which is required. It integrates Microsoft ActiveX Control Pad with SuperEdi. The use of four popular C/C++ compilers is supported.
Auto C creates a generic C application based on a user interface that you create and edit like a VB form. Auto C does not create dialog box RC scripts. It generates the C code to do many things, such as:
Change foreground and background colors from the defaults for many controls,
specify the font for a control to use,
subclass a picturebox just by drawing controls inside it,
specify the tooltip for a control to display,
create a toolbar and buttons and set each button's properties,
and much more. Also, Auto C creates RC Script for menus and accelerators.
Use of the following controls is supported:
Command Button,
Check Box,
Option Button,
Frame,
Text Box,
List Box,
Combo Box,
Label,
Picture Box,
Tabstrip,
Slider,
Up-Down Button,
Scrollbar,
Toolbar,
Progress Bar,
Status Bar.
Auto C also supports creating and editing Menus in a point-and-click visual style.
Using these free compilers is supported:
Borland Free C++ Compiler 5.5,
LCC-Win32,
Pelles C,
Open Watcom C/C++.
Auto C is ideal for Visual Studio 6 owners. ActiveX Control Pad is included on the MSDN Library 6 CD and the MSDN Library can be used for keyword help in SuperEdi. Refer to Auto C's help file for more information.
Auto C helps de-mystify the fundamentals of Windows and also how dynamic link libraries are used. It can generate the code needed to load a DLL and use the DLL's functions.
