Need Code for A star path finding
Author
Hi guys, Can any body send me A star ( A* ) path finding code in C++ for DirectX.
Thanks in advance.
A* pathfinding has exactly nothing to do with DirectX.
I googled for "a star pathfinding" and the first result leads you to a very accurate description of the algorithm. If you know C++ to begin with, it is a quite simple task to write an implementation of your own.

I specified DirectX because I googled for A* code & i found some source code which was either complete C code or a C++ code made using some library which I don't have. I am working on building my own code. Hopefully I`ll finish it soon, but I need a working code for reference.
As Nik02 pointed out - searching and pathfinding algorithms such as A* are independent of a multimedia technology such as DirectX. Or, more specifically, there is nothing in the DirectX suite that is directly related to A* implementations therefore this thread is better served by another forum - I'm moving this to AI [smile].
Also, I strongly suggest that you do some more research into example code - path finding is a very thoroughly covered subject. There are a huge number of books devoted to the subject and I've got several gaming-specific books on my shelf that discuss A* and related topics.
Cheers,
Jack

You can check out this link. It has binary and source code (chapter5 is about path finding).
I find "Programming Game AI by Example" to be a pretty good book, and I would recommend you to buy it if you want to learn further AI techniques.

Amazing that they have all that soutce online ....
This one also looks like it has A* source code

There's no need to assume bad faith. Someone working in DirectX is far more likely to be making a game than taking an AI class.

Amazingly, that website *is* valid, altough its the same as just www.me.com.
