weird error!

thats the full error

d3dx9.lib(fastftoa.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol __aulldvrm

please,please help.

Check out this MSDN newsgroup thread.

__aulldvrm is used by compiler for some int64 operations. Are you getting any other compiler errors/warnings?

no i am not

Just to make sure, have you included d3d9.lib as well?

[edit] Also, what version of MSVC++ do you have?

6.0

Yeah, I DX9.0c SDK does not work with MSVC++6. From the DX9.0c readme:

Quote:

Compiler Support Developing C++ applications with the DirectX 9.0 Summer Update requires Visual Studio .NET 2002 or later. Visual Studio version 6 is no longer supported. Developing managed applications with the DirectX 9.0 Summer Update requires Visual Studio .NET 2003 and .NET Runtime 1.1. Developing 64-bit applications requires the Microsoft Platform SDK. All DirectX SDK supported 64-bit samples have a corresponding sample_makefile.x64. These makefiles are compatible with AMD64 and Intel64.

Not supported != Does not work. However, you do need the Summer Update 2004 VS6 LIB files, which are available here. You have to download the entire extras pack to get them.

Whoops, sorry about that. Good to know.
