Delphi
Does Delphi (newest version) support DirectX? I have to learn it in school and I''d like to do some DX stuff there.
And if it does, from where I can download the SDK?
Hiya,
It is possible to do DirectX in Delphi, but it''s a pain in the backside! There is no SDK as such (as far as I''m aware), but the files (for DX v3) are out there somewhere (I don''t remember where, you''ll just have to look for them!)
Mind you, I only use Delphi v2 (the one that''s released as shareware) Perhaps newer versions are sorted for DX stuff.
I would recommend you use something like MS Visual C++, which is OK for that kind of stuff.

If you are only worried about your grade, then why do you ask about DirectX and Delphi? If you must use 3D graphics with Delphi I suggests that you go with OpenGL as there are a lot more information on how to combine these two.
