   Does DirectX SDK have a search option like JavaDocs?
  I hate reading through DirectX SDK, even though it's the best documented API out there. I wanted to know if there is some way of searching the functions that I really wanted to use, in a list, and I can do a find-search quickly?Just like JavaDocs, it gives a chart full of DirectX functions, sorted in categories, like what does the Drawing, what does Calculations, what does etc. Then it can sort the functions in those category, and label out the descriptions of each function.What I think the SDK is lacking, is a categorized list of functions for DirectX. Going to MSDN Library and looking up each functions and types, is like going to Wikipedia and clicking on a few links when I don't know what is what.Just asking if there is a quicker way of searching through the SDK. Thanks in advance.
  If, by DirectX SDK, you mean the DirectX documentation that comes with the SDK, unfortunately, the answer is no.DirectX is more object oriented than function oriented and functions are listed as associated with, or extensions of, the objects, rather than categorized (all of which you seem to already know).This link is about the closest you may find.   ;If, by DirectX SDK, you mean the DirectX documentation that comes with the SDK, unfortunately, the answer is no.DirectX is more object oriented than function oriented and functions are listed as associated with, or extensions of, the objects, rather than categorized (all of which you seem to already know).This link is about the closest you may find.That's a good one, but it's unfortunate that this feature isn't in the SDK documentation. When do we suppose Microsoft add this to the SDK?   ;When do we suppose Microsoft add this to the SDK? [/quote]If I had to guess, I'd say never as the types of categories you've mentioned just don't really seem pertinent to DirectX objects. E.g., having a list containing functions such as DrawIndexedPrimitive and DrawText together doesn't really provide the type of info you seem to be searching. ;  You can search the CHM, which will be restricted to only the installed version of the SDK.  It can be a bit easier than searching all of MSDN.   ;You can search the CHM, which will be restricted to only the installed version of the SDK.

I've installed the latest SDK, yet haven't seen DirectX 10 or 11 CHMs...Peered into the CHM and it looks very very similar to a structured reference guide.Really wished there is a (fictious) way of telling apart which functions comes which, placed in a timeline that shows when the debugger hits this function, etc. in both WinMain() and WindowProc().
