DirectMusic Problem

Hi,

I try to use DirectX music in my application, because I need to play
SGT music files. I downloaded Clootie DirectX Headers and defined:

Code: [Select]objDX8Loader: IDirectMusicLoader8;
  objDX8Segment: IDirectMusicSegment8;
  objDX8Performance: IDirectMusicPerformance8;
  objDX8SegmentState: IDirectMusicSegmentState8;
Then I tried to init audio and load the music file:
Code: [Select]procedure TForm30.Load(FileNamePath: string);
begin
  CoInitialize(nil); //initialize COM

  CoCreateInstance(CLSID_DirectMusicLoader,
                 nil,
                 CLSCTX_INPROC,
                 IID_IDirectMusicLoader8,
                 objDX8Loader); //create loader object

  CoCreateInstance(CLSID_DirectMusicPerformance,
                 nil,
                 CLSCTX_INPROC,
                 IID_IDirectMusicPerformance8,
                 objDX8Performance); //create performance object

  objDX8Performance.InitAudio(nil,nil,WindowHandle,DMUS_APATH_SHARED_S
TEREOPLUSREVERB,32,DMUS_AUDIOF_ALL,nil); //initialize DirectMusic &
DirectSound

  CoCreateInstance(CLSID_DirectMusicSegment,nil,CLSCTX_INPROC,IID_IDir
ectMusicSegment8,objDX8Segment);

  objDX8Loader.LoadObjectFromFile(CLSID_DirectMusicSegment,IID_IDirect
MusicSegment8,PWideChar(FileNamePath),objDX8Segment);

  objDX8Segment.Download(objDX8Performance);
end;
The code has been successfully compiled and ran, but then
unfortunately the application crashed by the line
objDX8Performance.InitAudio referring External SIGSEGV exception.

I use Win7 64bit, Lazarus 1.0.12 64bit. DirectX 9 is installed and I
also put the DLLs from Clootie's page next to application exe file.

Any idea what I do wrong?

Thanks in advance.

Are those DLLs and headers fit for 64-bit programs?  A 64-bits
programs can use a 32-bit DLL.


FPC 2.6.x 64-bit doesn't support certain forms of exception handling
(in non FPC code). IF you have a problem with exceptions from external
code in 64-bit mode, try the development version of FPC.

I have also 32 bit installation of Lazarus; causing the exception as
well.

Which version do you mean? Prerelease 1.1.99? If not, please give a
link.

1.1.99 is still based on 2.6.x so no.

You would need a snapshot based on FPC 2.7.1 or compile yourself using
an svn copy (e.g. using fpcup).
