This article is a sad, sad little stub. Can anybody flesh out some extra information? See the article on MFC for an idea.


The MdiContainer Property of a Windows Form seems to be very similar to the Document/View architecture of MFC. I think the note to the contrary is wrong.

Some comments after reading (except the obvious small size):

  • The MVC comment is a bit strange. If you look at the MVC page, only webapps have strict V-C separations, and for that we have ASP.NET. All other application widget set roughly treat it the same as Winforms.
  • Vista part, and connection to WPF. Is WPF a sucessor, competing technology? Will Winforms become (slow) GDI+?
