I made a project using the wizard, compiled and and get error missing header file. I set include dir to "C:\dx8sdk\samples\Multimedia\Common\include". Now I get link errors. I added "C:\dx8sdk\samples\Multimedia\Common\src\d3dapp.cpp" but I get errors. How to make work?
ReplyGood! Thanks

I think my environment is not right.
Can you tell me how I can do in VC++?
::My machine is DELL OptiPlex GX110
::My system operation:Windows XP(my friend's is windows 2000, but he has the same problem with me)
::My Tools: VC++6.0
Thank you.Happy new year!!!

There are a few existing problems with this article/demo that should be fixed before it's posted:
- Memory leak : these demos should *not* harm a programmer's development tools. Having VS crash as a result of installing this template (even if you are not using it) is a big no-no.
- Adding stdafx.h : Maybe the /Yu stdafx.h flag should be turned off if you're going to do this.
- Adding "d3dapp.cpp, dxutil.cpp and d3dutil.cpp to your project after creation". I'd be curious to see if there is a way to automate this in the appwizard as well as adding the include path for "d3dapp.h, dxutil.hand d3dutil.h" as well.

For what this does and doesn't do, I wouldn't call it an App Wizard...more like an "App Apprentice". It really just copies a set of renamed files (with renamed classes) to the directory specified. Nothing more.

Great Idea but Possibly Leaky

I agree with a previous comment that this App Wizard may be a bit leaky. I got similar results after using it. I have been forced to remove it to be able to continue using Visual Studio. This is unfortunate since it is such a good idea.
