- OVERRIDE.EXE
- ------------
-
- Sample application to demonstrate how to override the DirectPlay service
- provider dialogs.
-
- Note: MSVC may include older versions of the DirectX header files and
- libraries. This sample requires DirectX 5. In order to avoid compile
- errors, make sure the path to the DirectX 5 header files and libraries are
- listed BEFORE the MSVC header files and libraries through the
- Tools -> Options -> Directories menu.
-
- Once the user has selected which service provider to use, the application
- displays a custom dialog to collect the information needed for that service
- provider.
-
- If the user selected an unknown service provider, then the dialog (if any)
- cannot be overidden and the application must prepare for a dialog to be
- displayed.
-
- Once the information has been collected from the user, it must be formatted
- into a DirectPlay Address which can be used to initialize the service
- provider.
-
- EnumSessions must be called with the DPENUMSESSIONS_RETURNSTATUS flag and
- Open must be called with the DPOPEN_RETURNSTATUS flag to supress any status
- dialogs that may pop up to show to progress of the connection.
