Hi,
Can somebody tell me if i must have an Console Application or can i use Win32 Application for classes?

class CMyObject  // OO class in C++{  CMyObject() : m_iData(0)  {  }  int GetData() { return m_iData; }private:  int m_iData;}// using in a console app:#include &ltiostream>int main(int argc, char *argv[]){  using namespace std;  CMyObject *pMyObj = new CMyObject();  cout << pMyObj->GetData() << endl;  return 0;}  

#include &ltwindows.h>int WINAPI WinMain(HINSTANCE hInstance, HINSTANCE hPrevInstance,                   LPCTSTR lpCmdLine, int nCmdShow){  // declare and define window class:  WNDCLASSEX wc;  wc.cbClsSize = sizeof(WNDCLASSEX);  wc.cbClsExtra = 0;  wc.hbrBackground = (HBRUSH)GetStockObject(BLACK_BRUSH);  wc.hIcon = LoadIcon(NULL, IDI_APPLICATION);  wc.hIconSm = LoadIcon(NULL, IDI_APPLICATION);  wc.hCursor = LoadCursor(NULL, IDC_ARROW);  wc.hInstance = hInstance;  wc.lpfnWndProc = WndProc;  wc.lpszClassName = szClassName;  wc.lpszMenuName = NULL;  // register window class with Windows:  if(!RegisterClassEx(&wc))    return -1;  // go on to create window, display etc here  ...  return 0;}

Window classes can only be used in full-fledged Win32 Applications (entry point WinMain).

No. Any Win32 application (whether windowed or console) can use window-classes and open windows etc. (and a windowed Win32 application can open a console-window if necessary).
