The following snippet contains an elementary framework for creating a DirectX 11 program using the one and only DirectX 11 plugin available, which has been created by Rudolpho for the DarkBASIC Professional programming language, and is pending further development and release.
The candid idea surrounding this
simplistic first snippet and my endeavours in this context is for me
to learn and share my learning of how to initialize the plugin, and establish an easy to extend program loop in order to produce more complex snippets in future. You are free to use my examples freely in your works but are to adhere to the terms and recommendations of the author of the plugin, whose suggestions are advised to be held as the superlative source.
Please find the prerequisites and more information about the forthcoming
Ziggurat plugin in the WIP board; you may download the latest demo version of the plugin freely which contains everything you need to get started, including a collection of example programs supplied by Rudolpho.
