Re: doubt about header file implementation

implementation is normally in either a *.lib or *.dll and may or may not have the same name as the header file. You will probably not have the source code for system libraries and dlls. normally will NOT have the same name because libraries and DLLs contain implementation for many many header files. Look in your compiler's lib directory for these files.
