Re: Having trouble with downloading / using the tutorial cod

Right click the solution in the solution explorer and retarget it. Alternatively, you can change the platform toolset by right clicking your project and going to project properties.

Small Update

I have been out of school for a few weeks now and have been wanting to get back into programming. It has been what? Like 6 months since I did really any c++. Recently I have just been playing video games when off from work. I would like to get back into programming, but I only a little over a month ...

Re: Little game showcases

Sorry, my post had a typo in it. I mixed up the two things I wanted to say. I meant it would call the copy op= if copy= is called on class that contains ref. And no I don't have a specific reference it is just what I have noticed in my experience. (That's what I get for not proofreading my post I gu...

Re: Little game showcases

References are copiable, just not how one might think. When copy/move op = is called on a class that contains a ref, It just calls the copy constructor of the object it references. So it is more like copy be value than creating a duplicate ref. When a copy constructor is called on a class that conta...

Re: Win32 programming...not as fun.

I suppose you could do something with the program entry point if you really needed to be doing stuff throughout the entire game. But, C# with .net is meant to be event based programming.

Re: Win32 programming...not as fun.

As fun as it would be to roll something with d2d, I'd go with c# + .net to be honest... Much more rubust and much faster development time. win32 controls are okay but are a pain in butt to work with. If you do go the win32 route make dialogs in the resource editor. I used win32 from the beginning fo...

Re: static libs

Try removing the MY_API on static funcs and apply to class itself.
