QuickCase:W is recommended as a prototyping tool whenever you develop a new application. You can also use it to revise the interface of an existing application, but doing so may force you to change the structure of the program's source files.
To get the most out of QuickCase:W, learn to use the Image and Dialog Editors, too (described in Chapters 1–3). You can link the resources they produce directly to an interface created with QuickCase:W.
QuickCase:W works by:
1.Using your design for the interface.
2.Saving your design in a Windows database (.WIN) file.
3.Translating the information in the database file into the C source (.C ) files and header (.H) files necessary to create the interface.
4.Creating the support files (.RC, .DEF, and .MAK) needed to build the files from Step 3 into a Windows application.
Figure 4.2 illustrates this process.
