ok in EVERY DirectX source on C++ , i get dxgitype error , what should i do to fix it ?

You have a type redefinition going on, try fiddling your headers.

For example if you have this:

#include <d3d.h>
#include <d3d9x.h>

// try changing it to:

#include <d3d9x.h>
#include <d3d.h>

If you've tried all combinations, try googeling to see if there's a bug that specific sdk version (june 2010). These problems have three likely causes:

Someone has forgotten to protect his/her header against multiple inclusion (though this often produces linker errors)
Someone has used the same #ifndef/#define definition in his header file
A mistake has been made by them/you/anyone and as a result the file is now corrupt ( missing ';', ')' or '(' )

Also if you're building for metro, you need a newer sdk, 2010 is not compatible.

i tried all combinations but failed , i have June 2010 and i couldnt fine newer than june 2010

can u tell me which 1 is the latest ?

[giniyat101]

make a new empty project and make a new cpp file. fill it with the following

#include <windows.h>
#include <d3d9.h>
#include <d3dx9.h>

#pragma comment(lib, "d3d9.lib")
#pragma comment(lib, "d3dx9.lib")

INT WINAPI WinMain(HINSTANCE hInst, HINSTANCE hPrev, LPSTR lpCmd, INT nShow)
{
    return 0;
}

and compile it
if the error presents, the sdk is probably damaged and you will need to re install it.
