Problem with DirectX in Lesson 27....
Author
Anyone know why LPDIRECTINPUT7 is undefined when I try to compile lesson 23? I already have the SDK installed, I even search dinput.h and could not find LPDIRECTINPUT7... Any suggestions?

did you include the dxguid.lib library file ?
Do you have DirectX version 7 or later ?

Do you have the DirectX SDK v.7?
Is your path set correctly?
Is this your first DirectX call in this file (i.e.: does any previous DX keywords pass?)?
Did you solve your problem?

Could you try this very simple code?
It should return 1792 (0x0700) if everything''s OK.
If it returns anything less, then the SDK is not v.7 (maybe an older is taking priotity? Move the new SDK path to the top of your path list)
If it does not compile at all, then dinput.h is not found (or I made a mistake in this simple code, haven''t tested it).
I''d like you to reply

#include <windows.h>#include <dinput.h>#include <iostream.h>int main(){ cout << DIRECTINPUT_VERSION; return 0;} It should return 1792 (0x0700) if everything''s OK.
