   dirext x intellisense
  Hi,i''m a VB programmer learning C++ and directX. Was just wondering if the direct x has any kind of intellisense for example if i have an dd object lpdd, after i created the function pointer, can i get it so i type lpdd->, and it bring up a list of functions? also can you get it to display the parameters you have to pass to direct x functions as you are typing them?Hope this makes sense and thanks for any help!Nick 
  very posible, but it''s not a directx feature, it''s a feature of the GDI your using, what are you using Visual C++? I presume it has that, I use Dev-c++ as it''s free, and it has the smartcomplete or whatever it''s called feature ;quote:it''s a feature of the GDI your usingit should be IDE, not GDI!!============================================   What we do in life, echoes in eternity! ;  One of the first things you notice when moving from VB to VC++ is the lack of intellisense!!  You do get it, but no-where near the amount that you get in VB.  Also, it won''t appear at all unless you have included the correct header files at the top, and some times not even then. Visual Studio won''t correct capitalisation for you in VC++ like VB does either.And like the previous poster pointed out, it''s nothing to do with DirectX, it''s entirely dependant on the IDE.   ---"When I''m in command, every mission''s a suicide mission" - Zapp Branigan ;quote:Original post by theZapper  Visual Studio won''t correct capitalisation for you in VC++ like VB does either.VB is not case-sensitive! Just if you export objects, other languages need explicitly case-correct names. ;  Never understood why a language should be case insensitive.Is there any reason to use pcar and pCar in the same scope? i mean that''s nonsense.
