Hi All-
I am attempting to control my Agilent lab instruments with C++ coding. The instruments respond with I/O with SCPI (Standard Commands for Programmable Instruments). Agilent provides a software called "Command Expert" where you can enter SCPI commands into a sequence and then export the sequence in C++ in VISA format.
I do not have an issue with SCPI as I have found many resources for SCPI-99 controls. My issue is regarding the Visual C++ interface. I am currently using a win32 console format and have found that the GUI/User interaction to be very basic and not exactly what I am looking for. I potentially am creating a program that will be used in lab testing in the future so it would be nice to have a program looking good with the Windows type interface with dialog boxes/buttons etc. So far I have tried "Ultimate ++" GUI software, but being the beginner/newer C++ programmer I am, this application was very confusing. Most of the tutorials I attempted after having copied the respective code did not compile right despite them being directly out of the user guide.
So, essentially if anyone can recommend a free GUI development program/software application that will help me out that would be great. Perhaps there is something built in with the Visual C++ software that I am missing, but I am not an expert so I will let the experts help me out ;)
Thanks in advance!
解决方案Well, If you have visual studio (paid version, not the express one), you should have access to MFC which is more than enough for 99% (my number) of all GUI out there.
If you have the express version, ,then you should be able to do it in C++.net (or whatever it is called today).
You could use QT, but I''m not familiar with it (free version for non-commercial applications ?).
