Sorry but Visual Studio 6.0 is no longer supported. Upgrade to Visual Studio 2008. (There is an Express Version available for free)

[kavita_dubey]

this problem is solved..
but still i m getting a warning that DX9 is not enabled.
can u help me out

[kavita_dubey]

hey Sylence i m getting the same error as i got fr Eclispe

please help

[Sylence]

You get the warning that Dx9 is disabled because it is disabled. Microsoft dropped support for Visual Studio 6 and DirectX9 some years ago.

For the second problem: Put

Code: Select all

#pragma comment( lib, "Irrlicht.lib" )

somewhere in your code or add the library to the linker dependencies (properties -> Linker -> input -> additional libraries or something like that. Should be self explaining)

Anyway you really should consider upgrading to Visual Studio 2008.

[kavita_dubey]

still there is same problem
plzz help dear

[Sylence]

Then you should start reading the tutorials:
Start with the first one:
http://irrlicht.sourceforge.net/docu/example001.html

It will show you how to setup Visual Studio for Irrlicht applications.

[kavita_dubey]

that link doesnt explain to link the dll lib and all realted files
problem is with linking the files
can u tell me problem which files to add and wer?

[randomMesh]

that link doesnt explain to link the dll lib and all realted files

Sure it does.

...select the Menu Extras -> Options. Select the directories tab, and select the 'Include' Item in the combo box. Add the include directory of the irrlicht engine folder to the list of directories. Now the compiler will find the Irrlicht.h header file. We also need the irrlicht.lib to be found, so stay in that dialog, select 'Libraries' in the combo box and add the lib/VisualStudio directory.

[kavita_dubey]

u told me to upgrade Visual Studio but while searching around I found that different likning error was taken as bug in 1.5.1 and fixed in 1.6

[vitek]

Visual Studio 6 shipped with a pretty crappy version of the C++ compiler. It has many, many, known bugs. Not only that, but Microsoft stopped supporting Direct3D9 with Visual Studio 6, and they stopped providing Direct3D8 with their Direct3D SDK. That would mean no Direct3D support for you if you needed to rebuild the Irrlicht library.

You are better off using the Visual Studio 9 compiler. Trust me.
