Peter Puck has already made bindings for Direct X 8. The site appears to
be down at the moment, but if you google for
dx8 "Peter Puck"
you can probably find them, I believe these are MingW bindings, but they
work fine with cygwin.
Contrary to popular belief you can use the COM/C++ bindings. G

I'm talking about the specific implementation of the virtual table - the
layout of the function pointers relative to the "this" pointer. The
location and format of the vtable relative to the "this" pointer in Visual
C++ is patented by Microsoft

I dont know if this will help you, but here is how i have used
dll's generated with visual studio
First create a .def file for the dll using the impdef tool.
Use the dlltool and the .def file to create a library (.a file).
eg. dlltool --dllname foo.dll --def foo.def --output-lib libfoo.a -k

What do you mean they dont work ? Maybe there are missing features ? Of

Sounds like a DEF file problem. Functions in DLLs use a different
naming convention from C++ mangled names and C identifiers, usually:
@ArgSize
...where ArgSize is the total size of all the parameters arguments,

Hello there,
I've searched the archives high and low and can't seem to find a solution to

When compiling a DirectInput8 function such as DirectInput8Create() I get an
