Visual C++ 6.0 Introductory Edition can it be used?

Tril · Mar 7, 2005, 09:18 PM

I bought a C++ programming book for a programming class. A CD was included with the book. It's labeled Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 Introductory Edition. Does anyone know if it can be used to program plugins for kX?

I realy don't know, but why don't you just try it?
Try to compile the demo project included in kX SDK.
It's only 2 mouse clicks;
1. open demo.dsw
2. build demo.dll

ok, I'll try it. I read somewhere on the net that it has a popup that will show everytime you run a exe that was compiled with it.

I tried to compile and it seems to work. Here's the output from the build :

--------------------Configuration: demo - Win32 Debug--------------------
Compiling resources...
Compiling...
debug.cpp
Compiling...
demo.cpp
simple.cpp
StdAfx.cpp
Linking...
Creating library Debug/demo.lib and object Debug/demo.exp
rename
1 fichier(s) copi‚(s).
demo.dll - 0 error(s), 0 warning(s)

The disc came with the book "C++ how to program" fourth edition from Deitel

Tril, how did you make out (just out of curiosity)?
It looks like it compiled ok, did you try loading the plugin in kX?
Any pop-ups or anything out of the ordinary?

I compiled the demo. The kxl loads fine. The interface is correct.
But I'm not sure if it's working correctly.

When I move the horizontal slider it changes the sound volume in the left speaker. Completely to the left the sound is muted.

The vertical slider does not do anything. Is it supposed to work?

The sound that comes out from the left channel is ok. Nothing out of the ordinary.

That sounds about right, although I think you might get sound using the vertical slider set to 0 (seems to be the only setting that changes the vol2 value to something other than 0 (changes it to 1)). I never really actually tested it connected to anything, as I was more interested in the interface itself.
