    <p>I'm moving from windows programming (By windows programming I mean using <code>Windows API</code>) to Linux Programming.</p> <p>For programming Windows, the option we have is Win32API (MFC is just a C++ wrapper for the same). </p> <p>I want to know if there is something like <code>Linux API</code> (equivalent to WINAPI) that is exposed directly to the programmer? Where can I find the reference? </p> <p>With my little knowledge of POSIX library I see that it wraps around <strong>part of</strong> <code>Linux API</code>. But <strong>what about creating GUI applications?</strong> POSIX doesn't offer that. I know there are tons of 3rd party Widget toolkits like gtk, Qt etc. But I don't want to use the libraries that encapsulates Linux API. I want to learn using the "Core Linux API".</p> <p>If there are somethings that I should know, please inform. Any programmer who is familiar with both Windows &amp; Linux programming, please map the terminologies of Linux world so that I can quickly move on.</p> <p>Any resources (books,tutorials,<strong>references</strong>) are highly appreciated. </p>

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
