is DX surface pointer valid in calling function
October 03, 2000 10:47 AM
HI,here a question
Can DX surface pointer(like LPDIRECTDRAWSURFACE and higher)
be used in calling funtions?
For Example,
//define FunctionA:
FunctionA(LPDIRECTDRAWSURFACE7 lpDDS_EX,...)
{
...
}
LPDIRECTDRAWSURFACE7 lpDDSP;
...Here some operations over it...
FunctionA(lpDDSP,....);
Can it work Correct?

I do that all the time. I see no reason why it wouldn''t work even if I didn''t know it did (confusing? 
). It is just a pointer to an object, which is legal to pass to a function. You can pass just about anything if you try hard enough... maybe I should add that to my signature.
