Overview of the QuickCase:W Development Process

QuickCase:W is a C code generator that shortens the development process. It does this by shortening the time it takes to produce the code for a program's interface, and by assuring that the syntax of the code it produces is error-free.

Programs built with QuickCase:W go through a basic development cycle that is similar to that of any other program.

1.Prepare a program plan

2.Prototype the interface

3.Generate the interface code

4.Add the program's functionality

5.Build and debug the program

You do Steps 2 and 3 in QuickCase:W and Steps 4 and 5 in the Graphical Development Environment.

All the files you need to build a Windows application—the C source and header files, the resource script file, module definition file, and the project file—are generated for you by QuickCase:W. Beginning Windows programmers usually find this automatic generation helpful, while experienced Windows programmers consider it a blessing.
