Okay, after reding the tutorial on Wu anti-aliased lines on this site, i attempted to convert it to C++ code so I could use it in a DirectDraw Game i am making. The problem is, it doesn''t work! It doesn''t draw the lines properly! It draws them horizontally or vertically when it should be diagonal. Here is the relevant code:
video_buffer and mempitch are globals that I set after I lock the surface.

BASIC programmers don''t die, they just GOSUB and don''t return.
Without reading too hard, I find that your swap() looks bad.
How do you expect it to work? You must pass the values by reference if you want the values to be swapped for the calling function...

yes, i know. I noticed that about 5 seconds after i posted and changed it. That did not help much though.

grad = dy/dx;
Should be:
grad = (float)dy / dx;
Otherwise you perform integer division, which you don''t want.

Kylotan: That helped(can''t beleive i didn''t see it 
), but now the line draws sort of like this: (sorry for the crappy diagram)
Also, does anyone know any other websites or tutorials that have info on Wu anti-aliased lines (preferably with C/C++ code)?

You wrote:
xend = x1;
yend = y1 + grad * x1;
And it should be:
xend = trunc(x1+.5)
yend = y1 + grad * (xend-x1)
See the difference? you multiply grad by x1, which might give a BIG number! All they wanna do, is add a little to yend. If you don''t want that + 0.5, you can just assign y1 to yend.
xend = x1;
yend = y1 + grad * x1;
