+Dedicated Windows Examples
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ If you're a Visual C++ user, there are two examples specially
+ created for you:
+
+ examples\vstudio\mfc.vcproj: A GUI replacement for the simple2
+ example, it simply logs in and displays the stock table's
+ contents. Uses good old C++ and MFC.
+
+ examples\vstudio\wforms.vcproj: The same thing, only written in
+ C++/CLI and using Windows Forms. We needed a second
+ example for two reasons. First, string handling is quite
+ different under .NET than in unmanaged C++. Second,
+ many developers are now using Visual Studio Express,
+ which doesn't include MFC.
+
+ Open examples\vstudio\mysqlpp_vstudio.sln to begin working with
+ these examples. They probably only work correctly in Visual
+ Studio 2005, at the moment. If you want to backport them to VS
+ 2003, it's probably not hard, and we will accept patches for this.
+
+ The main justification for these examples is that Unicode is
+ handled differently in Windows GUI programs than on the POSIX
+ systems where MySQL++ was born and raised. In earlier versions
+ of MySQL++, the command line examples had very limited Unicode
+ support on Windows, but it was unrealistic and confusing. Now the
+ command line examples don't even try to handle Unicode on Windows,
+ leaving that up to these new GUI examples.
