c++.windows.32-bits - Problem compiling DX9 with 8.38 compiler
Here's a strange thing. I just upgraded my CD installation to the 8.38 compiler using the update zip file. I had an existing project to build one of the DX9 samples which built just fine under the 8.37 compiler. However, when I tried to rebuild with 8.38, I can't compile the source. I get: sc Meshes.cpp -mn -o+time -WA -3 -a8 -c -oMeshes.obj Error: e:\dx90sdk\include\d3dx9math.inl(966): undefined identifier 'UINT_PTR' Error: e:\dx90sdk\include\d3dx9math.inl(979): ')' expected Lines Processed: 138323 Errors: 2 Warnings: 0 Build failed I positioned the DirectX includes and libs both before and after the PSDK directories and it makes no difference. I can create a project using AppExpress and it builds correctly. Did something change in the compiler (I'm thinking implicit #defines here) with the 8.38 release which is causing a header to not be included? Any suggestions would be appreciated!

Never mind! I figured it out on my own. Chalk this one up to 'silliness on the part of the programmer'! :) After I installed the update, I forgot to re-update my sc.ini file to point to the updated PSDK files I have (downloaded from MS and converted using coff2omf). After doing that, it builds just fine again. Oh, well. Sometimes it the easy ones that give you the most trouble.
