I am not sure I understand from the quoted part in Brian's answer your
exact position (I am experiencing failures in news propagation here, so I
will not wait until the original answer floats this way).

What's your level of experience with C++ and OOP idioms?
If these can be problematic, than you'd better concentrate your efforts on
these. 

What I'd do is read Stroustrup on C++ (still my favorite), the GOF design
patterns book (the example are in C++, and the patterns themselves an
essential part of OOP vocabulary). [Links to patterns on my web page]

"Effective C++" from Scott Meyers, can also prove useful.

Finally, I guess it goes without saying that the place to get answers on
these topics is comp.lang.c/c++.* ;-)
