Go BackDevelopment Tools
You need the right tool for the job. This is very true for software development. Most any type of program you write will use "tools" of some sort. These "tools" are called SDKs or Software Development Kits. These are packages of necessary headers, library files, and debugging tools. Also things like graphics editors and sound editors are considered tools.
If you have something (like wrapper classes) you think others could use please e-mail it to me and I will post it for everybody to use. Make sure it is in a zip format, and leave a short description. All contributions are appreciated.
| DirectX 7 SDK and other DirectX downloads. | Microsoft just recently released this, every thing you need to start high speed graphics/ multimedia programming for windows. Be ready to spend some time though, it's about 129mb or pay some cash and get a CD. |
| Microsoft Platform SDK | Microsoft's solution to getting the latest development tools out to developers. Provides APIs for the most up to date technologies and every thing windows. This is also a very large package. |
That's all I have for now, I will post more links when I find more time to scourer the internet. I know from experience that it can be difficult to use SDKs if you don't know what you are doing. If you are having a problem and think I can help don't hesitate to ask me.
