This issue is mentioned in prior topic "Using DirectX with Code::Blocks (Read 36469 times)"
https://forums.codeblocks.org/index.php/topic,14103.0.htmlUser antonien created a project unsing the Directx template and after solving an initial problem, ran into the linker reporting "Undefined reference to WinMain".
I have just installed Codeblocks from a nightly Windows build and reproduced the issue. The problem is in tile file main.cpp at installed location share\CodeBlocks\templates\wizard\directx\dx9. It declares the application entry point as:
INT WINAPI wWinMain( HINSTANCE hInst, HINSTANCE, LPWSTR, INT )
A directx_main.cpp in the templates parent directory has the correct name for this function, which is "WinMain". I am not familiar with how project templates work, but I am confident that replacing the buggy main.cpp witn directx_main.cpp will fix the problem.
