when to use struct, when - class, for a derived from e.g TopWindow?
e.g

class SimpleWindow : public TopWindow {
public:
	typedef SimpleWindow CLASSNAME;

	SimpleWindow();
};

struct SimpleWindow : public TopWindow {
public:
	typedef SimpleWindow CLASSNAME;

	SimpleWindow();
};

Well, I think this is more about personal preferences and actual situation....

Personally, I use "class" if I am creating some widget that is supposed to be reused and will therefore have to have clean interface and well defined public members.

In "top-level" (or "end-user", I mean apps I create for customers) applications where I am about to create some widget/window to resolve one-time problem, I am often using "struct" for everything (without "private" section).

Actually, to tell the truth, for "end-user" apps, I am often producing the least refined code... Smile
