I am trying to use direct input, but get the following output from VS .net:

Linking...
DX9.lib(DXInputManager.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _GUID_SysKeyboard
DX9.lib(DXInputManager.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _IID_IDirectInput8A
dinput8.lib(dilib2.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _GUID_Key
Debug/roll.exe : fatal error LNK1120: 3 unresolved externals

DX9.lib is just what I''m calling my wrapper library. Other than that, I have listed d3d9.lib, d3dx9.lib, and dinput8.lib as dependencies for the project. Does anyone have any insight about what I need to do to fix this? Thanks~ Riley

I found the answer: dxguid.lib . Naturally, the 20 minutes before I post yield no answers... Thanks anyway!

uhhh, DX9 is a bad name for a wrapper.

I figured it was shorter than DX9Wrapper :o

Edit: I actually have been thinking it's a bad name for a while now, and plan on changing it eventually.
