Compiler errors

OK, I have been learning DirectX for a while now and everything has been going (mostly) great. I am about throught with the graphics part and moving on to DirectInput. The first example that I did is throwing these errors at me.

Code:

Warning: .drectve `/DEFAULTLIB:"uuid.lib" /DEFAULTLIB:"uuid.lib" ' unrecognized
Warning: .drectve `/DEFAULTLIB:"uuid.lib" /DEFAULTLIB:"uuid.lib" ' unrecognized
cFramework.o(.text+0x6b9):cFramework.cpp: undefined reference to `IID_IDirectInput8A'

C:/Dev-Cpp/lib/libdinput8.a(dilib1.obj)(.text+0x20):..\dilib1.c: undefined reference to `GUID_ZAxis'

Now, and correct me if I am wrong, it looks to me that it is trying to include 'uuid.lib' twice, but I cannot find where it is doing this, much less how to correct it.

I have read various texts that state you must

Code:

#define INITGUID

so that you can use GUID_SysKeyboard / GUID_SysMouse and

Code:

#define DIRECTINPUT_VERSION 0x0800

but these do not seem to make any difference

I am thinking that all the other errors on the list originate from the first two lines but I am at a lost as to how to resolve it.

This is what my main header looks like

Code:

#ifndef STDHEADER_H
#define STDHEADER_H

#define INITGUID
#define DIRECTINPUT_VERSION 0x0800
#define WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN

// Incudes
#include <windows.h>
#include <ctime>
#include <cstdio>

// DirectX includes
#include <d3d9.h>
#include <d3dx9.h>
#include <dinput.h>

// other includes
#include "cFramework.h"
#include "cGraphics.h"
#include "cGameApp.h"
#include "CVertexBuffer.h"
#include "CIndexBuffer.h"
#include "CWorldTransform.h"
#include "CUtility.h"
#include "cTimer.h"
#include "cFont.h"
#include "cInput.h"

//  Macros
#define KEYDOWN(vk_code)     ( (GetAsyncKeyState(vk_code) & 0x8000) ? 1 : 0)
#define KEYUP(vk_code)       ( (GetAsyncKeyState(vk_code) & 0x8000) ? 0 : 1)
#define SAFE_DELETE(X)       { X = NULL; delete X; }
#define SAFE_DELETE_ARRAY(X) if(X) { delete [] (X); (X) = NULL; }
#define SAFE_RELEASE(X)      if(X) { (X)->Release(); (X) = NULL;  }
#define SHOWERROR(s,f,l)     char ErrBuf[1024]; \
                             sprintf(ErrBuf, "File: %s\nLine: %d\n%s",f,l,s); \
                             MessageBox(0, ErrBuf, "Error", 0);

#endif

and the only linker options i have are

Code:

-ldinput8 -ld3d9 -ld3dx9

Thanx for any help

I am using Dev-C++, Windows XP

You must link with dxguid.lib to link in the GUIDs.

OK, I missed that part in my book. It said the #include INITGUID OR link th dxguid.lib... missed the or part :P

Its working now, thanx Bubba!
