Hi
i want to choose a GUI programming but i don't know which
is powerfull in communicating between hardware
can you help me for this matter?

if you recommend a software for programming please tell me
what's your reason to choose this software
and please tell me the software features


thanks my friends

Do you have a particular language in mind?

When you say "powerful in communicating with hardware", what do you mean? Communicating with hardware is typically what drivers do, and drivers don't tend to have GUIs. As a general rule applications should use interfaces provided by the operating system rather than talking to hardware directly.

What sort of application would you like to write?

What platforms do you wish to target (different operating systems? embedded systems?)

Do you have any special requirements?

Are there any licenses you would wish to avoid?

Presuming you mean an IDE (Integrated Development Environment), there are 2 I'd have to recommend. If you don't care about the OS (Which likely isn't true), then ayou have Microsoft's Visual Studio. Used the 2005 version, and it has the best debugger I've ever seen. For most OSes, Linux in particular, there's Eclipse. I use it with the CDT plugin to program & debug my C/C++ code. It has a couple of small problems, but I like how it runs the pre-processor over your code every time to save, making syntax-fixing a lot easier.

My means of communicating with hardware is write and read from port
and .........
I havn't a particular language in mind i want start from basic

I don't undrestand your means of
(Do you have any special requirements?)

Are there any licenses you would wish to avoid? No

I havn't give my answer

please help me

use C for low-level programming.

Programming languages are a bit like normal languages: first you have to learn the language and then you have to learn how to use the language. I mean there's a difference between learning words / grammar of a new language and being able to write a book in that language. Starting from basic means learning commands and syntax of a programming language and how to use it in writing programs; you slowly have to learn 'how to think' in a programming language.

Most (new) programming languages are very small, there are not a lot of words and symbols to learn but there is very much you can do with such a limited vocabulary and it can take a long time before one really understands the possibilities. On the other hand, if you want to do something specific then there are libraries which contain most of the functionality to make a program that does something. Oddly enough, there are many different programming languages but they all do more or less the same and have many library functions in common.

More to the point: You need to learn a language, need to learn how to use that language, need to find a language that supports the library that's used for the GUI you want to program and need to find a library that enables you to program the ports you're talking about.

If I read your replies, your starting point is to find out exactly what you want and then ask your question again. Or, in other words, you need to understand what matthewg42 wrote above before anyone can help you.
