Direct Input Problem
Author
Hey folks,
When trying to initialize Direct Input, I get an error which translates into an invalid parameter being passed. I'm trying to initialize DirectInput 7 and I current have DirectX 9.0b installed on my test machine so I don't believe there should be any problems. This is the code I'm using:
WindowInstance is a global application instance handle.
DIRECTINPUT_VERSION is defined in theheader file as 0x700. Please advise.
Thanks,
Mike
- Are you sure the instance is valid?
- Try using GetModuleHandle(0) instead
- Enable debug output and look for interesting messages

That's what happened to me just recently. I just made a custom windows message that sent to my window after i was sure that my instance was valid and initialized DirectInput (actually, winsock and D3D too) then. Worked fine after that.

Well,
Using GetModuleHandle( NULL ) works fine although I'm confused as to why this instance would not be valid. But everything seems to work fine now. Thanks very much!
