Does anyone out there have any experience designing classes for a Windows-based
desktop videoconferencing system?  I have the task of trying to learn
Windows programming, the Object-Oriented paradigm, C++, and the Visual C/C++
IDE all within the next 6 months so that I can write a program that with the
help of a video capture board, a codec, and a communications card, will do
videoconferencing.  I'm kind of overwhelmed.  I'm about half-way through
"C++ Primer", as well as "Object-Oriented Analysis and Design", and about
a third of the way through "The Visual C++ Construction Kit".  I think I should
be thinking about what my base classes should be and I'm trying to do that,
but is there anyone who wouldn't mind being a sounding board for my ideas?
