VB and DrawPrimitiveUP

Started by

Every time I call DrawPrimitiveUP VB closes down, without giving me a chance to get the error from DirectX. I am running VB6 SP5... Any Ideas? If one person would write a book on DirectX in VB, I would make them a rich man!

Visit http://64.23.12.52//Tutorials/DirectX8/GR_Lesson03.asp and take a look. There is an example of DrawPrimitiveUP in action as well as working code to download. The site has heaps of really good tutorials to get you started.
Yeah, I use DX4VB for tutorials, and thats where I learned what I know, but I can''t see what is causing the problem.

I have no idea why your code doesn''t work, but it''s highly recommended that you don''t use the ...UP functions anyway.

I haven''t used VB in a LONG time, but I would guess that VBs notion of a pointer is different than what the ...UP functions want. At least that was the sort of thing that got me to stop using VB long ago
