RE: [Dev-C++] DirectX problem, help needed

Yes, I think you must make sure that Dev-C++ is only using DirectX header
files where there are dev-c++ header files of the same name.
In English:
If there is a file in DirectX include directory and the same file in Dev-C++
include directory (c:\dev-c++\include) move the dev-c++ one somewhere safe
and put the directx one in its place. Also you might need some platform SDK
files. By the way, using the "Microsoft" files maybe the solution because
the files are new, updated, and more compatible with directx.

Before you mess around with your files though, maybe you should check some
other stuff, like all the libs are linked correctly, you are using the right
functions and you have the right dlls available (you might need vfw32.dll,
for example)

I hope this helps

Subject: [Dev-C++] DirectX problem, help needed

Hi, I have linked the compiler with the .h and .lib directories in the
DirectX SDK, though I receive 31 error messages every time I attempt to
compile a program that uses any directx header files. Does anyone know how
to fix this? Does anyone know how to setup DirectX at all?
Please post info here or e-mail me, thanks.
