people dealing with Win32 rather use MFC, which has RAII-wrappers

it makes a lot of difference becouse you can create things imo without allocating it - allocating is a special sinful event in a world of
programming

you ay create things for example spawn bullets or enemies liek adding
them to managed list/array (its normal way)..thsi is not sinfull,
this is normal

bt allocating things is especially sinfull - and you need to
very strictly care of this sin

If you have a resource handle as with all Create*() functions with
Win32 this includes a memory allocation, mostly on the kernel side.
Tell me which resources you could create / allocate without allo-
cating memory.

see how funny and bright this guy szyk is

BTW: He is not any prof. nor gen.,

i already talked im not 'typical' professor
(im unusual one) i mean i got an attitude of
professor so this nick rather fits a lot

as to bein general it is more specific, i
talk abous sorta general solutions in a ground of c so
one can name me as a 'general' in sorta way ;c

but obviously it is less strightforward thing
(and sadly im getting old and feel not as nice
and flexible to nicknames as i was (and it is
a terrible tragedy ofc - loosing such flexibility is extremally tragic)

im not talking here only on winapi but generally on all programming when
you can be put in minefield which could be avoided if
you would strictly use that convenction that use word Alloc (of
Aloocate? ) on all functions that alloc ram and not use it on functions
that dont do that

as to winapi i dont know.. chat gpt says that CreateFile CreateEvent
may not create new thing ..

in general this shows additional problem that thiose winapi functions
may alloc thing but alos may dosomething other things they may create
some internal state and if this not need to "removed" of "fixed"
before all other calls its ok but if this is state of such like it needs
some fixing this is another case but it in some ways can
be probably managed analogous way (by strict naming
that programmer woudl know it need 'fixing')

world of programmers is quite big so your almost noone may

if that would be something like few thousands only)

(by c i mean also this that can be compiled in c++ mode as i mysalf
often do, but it has no c++ oop trash, i generally use nothing form c++
mode except const int tab_max = 10000; though i think about usung
references)

besides you think it is good not to do things than not many people do
???? its good to do what many sheeps do??

i asked by curiosity how many programmers and c programmers are in the
world and chat gpt says programmers are like 30-40 milions

(it is possible i think but alos including maybe hobbyst programmers
who programmed like few months in life maybe)

as to c programmers it suggested that like maybe 5% of this programmers
know c (probably could agree).. so maybe c programmers is about 1
milion, maybe slightly less

(well depend what someone calls c programmer but imo someone
who knows c++ in some way (and is able to know thet there is c++ and c
at his option) also could cont

how many of them maybe not regularrly and only codes winapi in c but was
doin asomething in it for some time? i dont know but for me
50k or maybe maore makes sense..its probably more, becouse
few thousand on whole world is so small its rather not rational imo
its at least 50k and tends into 500k (im mean its in area among 50k and
500k)

probably even assembly programmers (people who know assembly) would be
more than 50k

Yes, MFC is bad design, but effective.
