I've just started with DirectX and I'm suppose to learn how to send resolution as a parameter by the target-line (I think I said it right, this: "C:\bla.exe" -MyParameter ).. but I can't seem to find a guide anywhere, MSDN is a jungle and I have no idea where to find anything about it. Anyone know a guide for this?

You can just parse the command line passed in the 3rd parameter to WinMain(). In your example, it'll contain "-MyParameter".

You'll need to check for the existence of whatever switches you want and then modify your code accordingly.

thank you for your answer, im gonna look into this and I can't believe I didnt see it.. I believed it would be something extremely difficult like 50 lines of code or something to make it work..
