Author Topic: New wizard for Directx9 (Read 23389 times)

patlecat · « **on:** May 31, 2007, 09:57:14 pm »

I've modified and extended the existing wizard script for DX9 and to support GCC more. Of course the template code should also be modified, I might do this some other time. It's no use for me now anyways.

Pls let me know how u like this new script:

(What's missing is a selection from the user in case both versions are available... Biplab? ;-))

Nice Morten, this was my first time fiddling with CB scripts. But u seem very proficient with it. Could you also add an option to create an empty project?

Yes that would be verry useful.

We can set it to the Latest version as default.

Possible and will be done.

Biplab · « **Reply #5 on:** June 01, 2007, 12:29:43 pm »

I'm attaching the latest modification. You'll get the option to select DirectX 8 / DirectX 9 and setup the project accordingly. But default sample needs to be changed. So just remove the default generated file and attach your own code to the project.

BTW, I've never used DirectX for any of my project. So there could be errors in Project setup. Please feel free to modify it and post it.

I need couple of infos:
1. I'm using Win32-api-3.9 and MinGW runtime 3.12 to compile DirectX sample. But there is no DirectX 8 headers and thus I can't test it.
2. Are Direct X headers and libraries are available separately for MinGW??

Regards,

Biplab

I use a DevPak for Direct/X This includes the DX8 and DX9 SDK and works together with MinGW. Anyways - when I searched the DevPak site for it it was no longer available...?! Google revealed that there were obviously some copyright stuff going on so it has been removed. Either you can find it somewhere yourself or I can make you a package accordingly (have to be at home for this). Tell me what you want/need.
With regards, Morten.

If possible, you may test the wizard with your package and make changes accordingly. Or if you've good link to package, you may post it.

Did that and revealed an issue:
If I choose the folder for the project the "resulting filename" is somehow broken. The drive letter is always missing - thus, if I continue I receive an error message the project could not be created. On second thoughts... this cannot be from the DX wizard, right?! Were there any relevant changes recently? I remember it was working last week (with other wizards I used)...

Here are two:

I'll make a package at home...

biplab you can use the project settings as above from me, this works well under gcc on windows. the directx-sdk is available online from either microsoft (http://msdn.microsoft.com/directx) or any directx book u can buy. my gcc alas only worked fine with dx9.0c from Aug06, no older version! i can craft you a template-code file for dx9 if you wish, i didnt care to look into the dx8 code, but i had to modify it for dx9 because it didnt run with dx9 out of the box.

and please dont add any dx10 stuff yet - unless there is someone who really knows his shit with it! it will surely break the code again.

There are some changes made recently. But I've worked today with the latest revision and it worked fine. Have to check this.

But in my system, libd3dx9.a doesn't exist. I'll look into it after this weekend.

I've just rechecked. It's working fine. Did you try with a different folder? Or maybe it's a Unicode problem?

But in my system, libd3dx9.a doesn't exist. I'll look into it after this weekend.

I never said that there is a file called libd3dx9.a :wink: See here what my directory (X:\Microsoft DirectX SDK (August 2006)\Lib\x86) contains:

But GCC will not accept MS Compiler compiled Libraries. So the couple of necessary files are missing in Win32-api distributed for MinGW compilers.

GCC does accept MS compiled *.lib under certain circumstances (can't exactly recall which one but I successfully compiled the one or other application where it worked, e.g. Gnuplot) - just try it... ;-)
Anyways: To work with MS platform SDK and MS Direct/X SDK's I personally would use a MS compiler... but that's just me. For MinGW I' personally use the Direct/X DevPak I was referring to in the other post. This includes all *.a (100% MinGW compatible) libs.
With regards, Morten.
