hi ,
i have just started to read a book called managed directx : kickstart
by Tim Miller for games programming. i have a basic knowledge of
programming in general. as i used to work in java and c, but now i
have to design a simple 3d game using managed directx and direct3d.
i started with the first example below as u can see. this code should
show a triangle in a window frame. but i had an error when i built
the project and i got this message.
i juist like to say that i copied this code directly from the book and
i thought it should work!
can anyone help me here i am really stuck and i have to design a
simple 3D game in 10 days!! where i have an arm that can pick up a
ball and release it.thats all!
can ANY ONE GIVE ME Direction!
thanks

not contain a definition for 'SetPosition'
