I want a write a notepad program in C++.

Question

Please give me some ideas to write a C++ program for notepad.

Answer 1

I know what notepad is.
I just wanted to know because that I wanted to create a some utility program for my project work.

Answer 2

hence, you must have some experience in programming in C++...right
then give me the ide you are using

Answer 3

try using a gui framework like qt

Answer 4

lol, it'd be better if he'd shift to .NET Framework

Answer 5

.net is good, but is restricted to windows. Qt is platform independent so it can run on windows, mac and linux. Depends on what platform you want your app to run on

Answer 6

k.... whatsoever, go look to some open source utility software code,
and personally C++ , is a no go....you can do much more in other langs

Answer 7

I am using codeblocks IDE. Even if it is restricted to Windows no problem. I just need for my project work.

Answer 8

bro, notepad is a text editor to be precise
you'll need to know file handling
and graphics programming for the GUI if you intend to make one
it's not necessary to build a GUI
and as far as ide is concerned, I don't think codeblocks is language specific
you better shift to a proper IDE for development of a utility
as we both suggest, try VS or Qt
and wish you luck

Answer 9

I know file handling but is there any sample code to understand more about the text editor

Answer 10

Answer 11
