digitalmars.D.learn - Api calls...
- ElfQT (11/11) Aug 10 2005 How D finds windows api calls?
- ElfQT (7/18) Aug 10 2005 Ok the problem is basically that D3DX is not in dll...
- Jarrett Billingsley (13/17) Aug 10 2005 Wait a couple hours and I'll be releasing nonagon R4. ;)
How D finds windows api calls? eg. on extern(Windows) D3DXMATRIX* D3DXMatrixRotationY( D3DXMATRIX *pOut, FLOAT Angle ); I get Error at runtime: "The procedure entry point D3DXMatrixRotationY could not be located in the dynamic link library d3d9.DLL" Now, I'm using other functions from the d3d9.dll finr, but I don't explicitly reference the dll.. Can someone point me to some info in dll/winapi topic? ElfQT

Ok the problem is basically that D3DX is not in dll... only in lib. A working solution of projet nonagon is to use a wrapper dll from 3rd source. Is that true that this lib cannot be used from D?

Depending on what version of the SDK you're using, you use a different D3DX DLL (as there have been several updates to D3DX but no new versions of DirectX as a whole.. kind of confusing). For example, nonagon uses the June 2005 SDK, and so it depends upon d3dx9_26.dll. This is a DLL that is installed by the DirectX installer. I'd need a little more information on what version of the SDK you're using, and might suggest that you update DirectX on your machine (the newest is August 2005). Then I can give you a few more tips. Or, you can wait for nonagon, and I can use that as an example to explain it to you.

I've decided to drop D3DX and the needed math functions, i will steal ... err I mean I will reimplement them in D. Another call problem is how to call timeGetTime(). I have #extern(Windows) DWORD timeGetTime(); in code, and in .def IMPORTS Runtime at the call i get: "This application has failed to start because Start.DLL was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem." I c++, the function declared in mmsystem.h WINMMAPI DWORD WINAPI timeGetTime(void); How to call that api?

"ElfQT" <dethjunk yahoo.com> I still don't know how to call timeGetTime(). But I've found "clock()" in time.d, which works fine. Altough I'd be curious whats wrong with timeGetTime. ElfQTAnother call problem is how to call timeGetTime(). I have #extern(Windows) DWORD timeGetTime(); in code, and in .def IMPORTS Runtime at the call i get: "This application has failed to start because Start.DLL was not found.
