What kind of programming can be done with GTK, GTK+, Qt..? What library is most popular and effective?
What equivalents of win32 api functions and MFC and ATL are for Linux \Unix platforms??????????????????????????

Is CORBA more popular than COM+ for Linux \Unix platforms?
Are available good implamentation of DCOM\COM+ for Linux\Unix platforms
What equivalents of Direct X and OpenGL are for Linux \Unix platforms????????????

What is difference between programming for Linux Red Hat and ASP and Mandrake and Free BSD and Solaris?????????????????????

What level do you want ???

Do Linux\Unix platforms have API functions
what do you mean ? how can an operating system be built without having API functions ? ever heard about .so files ???

What is POSIX? Can GUI be programed with POSIX
There's no point in explaining you what is POSIX...  Please do your homework before asking like this ... you can always do a google and know what is POSIX... you just seem to make us do your work .... isn't it ?

Why do want to have an equivalent of Win32 and MFC ?? Can't you live with the native libraries and capabilities of Linux ??? If not... then please stick with VC++ and windows...
Quote from: "Agent007"
What equivalents of DCOM and COM+ are for Linux \Unix platforms??????????????????????????
Why on earth do you want to have equivs of every Proprietary technology of MS ?

Linux programming is not just all about C++... there's a whole array of languages to pick up from... if you're trying to build GUI apps then also you can build it using wrapper classes present in that language...

PS: I'm sorry if my language sounds aggressive... I just talk that way...

My suggestion is to devide this package in small pieces with rar or zip or other like program. And make it self-ecstracting.
What do you think?????

GNUrag: Would you consider uploading some of these ebooks to my ftp server? I have  a nice collection (all legal), but it sounds like you have quite a bit more than me ;)

The address is ftp.ontheheap.net

username is freeftp@ontheheap.net
password is free

I plan on removing them once I get a chance to d/l them.

It would be hugely appreciated!

The account won't be going anywhere any time soon  :wink:  I use it for a number of different things. Script testing (although, as of lately I've just been using my own apache server for that), file hosting, design experimentation, etc. I've recently installed Genesis so I could offer small amounts of webspace to people who have projects that I find interesting and/or useful.
