Win32 API or OOP using Win32 API

Expand Post »
After using MFC, I felt like throwing it away. I thought to move on to Win32 API programming (I work on Windows platform.)
But then, it is all C. I dont say i dont like C, but is there any better OO alternative to MFC for Win32 platform? Or should i make my own classes from API ,whenever required?

I think you better try WTL/ATL, you might find it interesting.
