Windows MFC: Tic-Tac-Toe Example

An example tic-tac-toe game built with Microsoft Foundation Classes.

This Tic-Tac-Toe game is the simpliest example of an MFC application. It contains one source file and implements one window class, the most basic one - CWnd. Compare it to the .NET Tic-Tac-Toe example and WinAPI Tic-Tac-Toe example. Download the source code: MFCTICTACTOE.ZIP
