Using DX Gui outside of there framework.

Hey, I'm trying to figure out how to use the DX Gui outside of their custom framework. I spent a lot of time converting all my code over to unicode(yuck) and I copied all there files into my folder. And now I'm stuck trying to get the CDXUTDialog initialized properly. 1) I created an instance of the CDXUTDialog variable. 2) I called m_dxHud.AddButton( /*IDC_TOGGLEFULLSCREEN*/0, L"Toggle full screen", 35, 40, 125, 22 ); 3) I call m_dxHud.OnRender( ); *BOOM* it crashes in CDXUTDialog::OnRender( ); IDirect3DDevice9* pd3dDevice = DXUTGetGlobalDialogResourceManager()->GetD3DDevice(); // Set up a state block here and restore it when finished drawing all the controls DXUTGetGlobalDialogResourceManager()->m_pStateBlock->Capture(); - It seems that pd3dDevice == 0. - This makes sense because I never called there DXUTInit, DXUTCreateWindow, or DXUTCreateDevice function calls because I have my own rendering system set up. So my question is, if I'm not using there framework can I integrate in the DXGUI? And If I can how do I properly initialize their stuff? - Thank you, Dave Neubelt

Better yet, make your code unicode/ansii compatible by using the _T(x) macro. Unfortunately, somethings are more of a pain to convert.. like the DirectX driver descriptions, etc. which need to be manually converted to unicode.
