DirectX version 6.0 is the last version supported. DXsound is also version 6.0. The DirectX and Direct3D components are very functional but only represent a subset of all DirectX components, since they were not completed. Support for Direct 3D is through DirectX Retained Mode interface. It will continue to be provided by Microsoft but unfortunately is no longer being upgraded by Microsoft. There is no current support for DirectShow, DirectInput, and newer interfaces. It is possible to use wrapper DLLs (the DLL does the work for you).
