Hi, I have a problem that I wonder if anyboda can help me with. My proble is that I can not get DINPUT.LIB (dxx7) to link with Builder 5.... just will not do it... the others (ddraw and dsound) work fine... Thanks in Advance Leon Ljunggren Diplomacy means saying something soothing as you squeeze the trigger, right?

Try adding DXGUID.LIB to your project along with DINPUT.LIB and the rest.

Be careful there are different lib files supplied for borland than for msvc, you probably know that but it tricks some people.

Thanks but it didn''t work. Does anybody ellse know something that can work?

If the problem is the lib file (which it may be) then there are two things you should do.

First, make sure that you are using the lib found in the ..\Lib\Borland directory on the DXSDK CD.

If that doesn't work, then run the Borland ImpLib utility on dinput.dll (look in the help files for info on ImpLib) and you can make your own lib file for the DLL.

By the way, what is the error message you're getting?

Good luck!

just "error processing module"

when i use implib to make a new dinput.lib from the dinput.dll, says can find _c_dfDIKeyboard, _c_dfDIMouse, _c_dfDIJoystick

Well, those are the data formats, and they should be declared in the dinput.h file if I''m not mistaken, so I don''t know what''s happening...
