I have been working with CLR Console apps using Visual C++ 2008 Express. Now, I too am looking to make the jump from the console to an event driven windows GUI. Is MFC back in favor? Or is there a better approach? The IDE offers Windows Forms Apps templates too.
This thread has been very nformative but it is now 2009. What is the advice today regarding Windows Forms or MFC? Many thanks!
