adapting console code to a gui

[sleze]

I got a nice bit of code running very smoothly on the console and now have to implement the gui. The problem is that printf() doesn't seem to work too well without a target for output.

Would anyone be able to point me to a site that explains how to redirect the output to an mfc control(like a text box or something)?

If you have access to CodeWarrior, create it as a WinSioux application instead of a console application. You don't have to change any printfs and everything appears in a scrollable window.

you can use sprintf instead to print to a destination buffer then set the text of the control to the buffer's contents.

int i = 5;
char buf[32];
sprintf(buf, "The number is %d", i);
SetWindowText(hWnd, buf);
