Information About

Windows Template Library




In an uncharacteristic move by Microsoft—an outspoken critic of Open Source software—they made the Source Code of WTL freely available. Releasing it under the open-source Common Public License , Microsoft posted the source on SourceForge , an Internet open-source repository. The SourceForge version is 7.5.

Most of the WTL API is a direct mirror of the standard Win32 calls, so the interface is familiar to most Windows programmers. Being an unsupported library, WTL has little formal documentation. Faced with this problem the project "WTL Documentaion" {Link without Title} was started and now has a semi-complete documentation.
