Anything you can do in C, you can do in CHICKEN, so yes you can do it, but ActiveX may not be particularly easy.
If you have a good grasp of C, C++, and the Windows COM model, it should be fairly straightforward. You’d probably create a C interface to DirectX functions, then call those through the CHICKEN FFI. I know next to nothing about COM, but a quick search suggests that is not the easiest to work with through C. So unfortunately, even if you are familiar with all these technologies, it would likely represent a fair amount of work. If you are interested in seeing what it takes to call C functions from CHICKEN, take a look at: http://wiki.call-cc.org/man/4/Interface%20to%20external%20functions%20and%20variables OpenGL is easy to get up and running, though ;) John Sampson writes: > Is it possible to call procedures or functions in a third-party ActiveX > dll in Microsoft Windows from a Chicken Scheme program? > > If so, how would this be done? > > Regards > > John Sampson > > _______________________________________________ > Chicken-users mailing list > [email protected] > https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/chicken-users -- Alex _______________________________________________ Chicken-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/chicken-users
