How can I detect with compilerif thats I use currently the DirectX7 sprite lib?

I cannot...so I hope the DirectX7 will be also a Subsystem (The default one).

if no subsystem used :

Code: Select all

CompilerIf SubSystem("")

Ok fine.
As long as there are only 'Graphic' Subssystems existing as long I can use this piece of code. Thanks.

Code: Select all

CompilerIf SubSystem("")

This is not working. Sorry. We need a solution from Fantasie Software for this.

Try and change the subsystem:

Code: Select all

Debug SubSystem("")

There are no differents I got always: 0

Code: Select all

CompilerIf Subsystem("DirectX9")
  MessageRequester("", "DirectX 9")
CompilerElse
  MessageRequester("", "DirectX 7")
CompilerEndIf

What about DX9: I have currently 3 Subsystems:
the native DirectX7
the 4.20 DirectX9
the S.M. DX9

And do not forget the currently not working OpenGL subsystem!

So we need a new compiler directive: CompilerElseIf

Makes me think... is there a CompilerElseIf these days?

Posted: **Fri Jan 04, 2008 7:43 pm**

What about using CompilerCase for that?

CompilerSelect <numeric constant>
  CompilerCase
    ...
  [CompilerDefault]
    ...
CompilerEndSelect

is not usefull in this case.
You can only get an info about a subsystem like using or not using...not of which one is used.

True. Sorry, I thought into the wrong direction.

No prob... I doing it all the time.

i agree on the missing CompilerElseIf, but stop saying xyz is not possible, because it is...

Code: Select all

CompilerIf Subsystem("DirectX9")
  MessageRequester("", "DirectX9")
CompilerElse
  CompilerIf Subsystem("DX9")
    MessageRequester("", "DX9")
  CompilerElse
    CompilerIf Subsystem("OpenGL")
      MessageRequester("", "OpenGL")
    CompilerElse
      MessageRequester("", "DirectX7")
    CompilerEndIf
  CompilerEndIf
CompilerEndIf

Please add the missing 2 new grafic subsystem which I will make with the release of PB4.20.

DX10 and SDL

If you have it done...I will say no longer it is not possible.

and that is connected how to this thread? dont mix apples and oranges. :roll:

first you said its not possible to detect dx7 because its not a subsystem and i showed you otherwise. then you said its not possible to detect various subsystems because of the missing CompilerElseIf and i showed you otherwise.

you wanted a solution, you got a soultion... its that simple.

You could have use CompilerSelect if it wasn't so buggy. I think I need to report something!

You can test the concept with constants, but unfortunately with Subsystem() inlined everything goes boom.

Code: Select all

#DX9 = Subsystem("DirectX9")
#OpenGL = Subsystem("opengl")
#SDL = Subsystem("sdl")
#DX10 = Subsystem("dx10")

CompilerSelect 1
  CompilerCase #DX9
    Debug "nine"
  CompilerCase #OpenGL
    Debug "opengl"
  CompilerCase #sdl
    Debug "sdl"
  CompilerCase #dx10
    Debug "ten!"
  CompilerDefault
    Debug "seven"
CompilerEndSelect
