Dark SDK is not C++, it is C code. It just so happens that good C++ compilers compile C programs. To make it C++ and OO there need to be classes to instantiate. (spelling??) There are none in all of DarkSDK. There are only function calls.

Dude seriously, why are you arguing with yourself?

Yes yes DGSDK is technically a C library. You already said that didnt you?

I paid for a working product, there are oodles of bugs... give me a patch. It's long overdue.

I just want a few bugs fixed, so I know we all aren't abandoned.

Oh, and I hope we get Devshed support soon.

While we wait for updates, is there any reason the source code for the sample programs, that the SampleViewer.exe shows, can't be made available?

Just curious, any chance that an OOP variant of the DBSDK would ever come out? That's one of the primary reasons that I opted for the SDK over Pro. That and I'm more comfortable with working in C++.

Many people would probably agree that the use of OO classes would definitely boost the flexibility of the SDK. The use of commands like:
new dbImage bkgImg("media\bkg.bmp");
new dbImage playerImg("media\player.bmp");
new dbSprite playerSpr(playerImg, 32, 32);
bkgImg.paste(0, 0, 0);
playerSpr.animate(1, 10, 0.2);

would definitely make programming a lot easier. Managing sprite and image numbers can tend to get a little tedious...

I don't mind waiting for a more comprehensive update, but if at least they can fix this problem with "unresolved external" errors ASAP it'll allow me to at least compile my programs.
