Looking for code samples for Direct3D tessellation

Question

Dear All:

I am trying to learn how to use the Direct3D function D3DXTessellateRectPatch: msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb205471(v=VS.85).aspx

I have found the MSDN documentation quite useful and have been able to implement tessellation of a single rectangle patch.

I am now trying to tesselate a mesh that consists of thirty two bicubic Bezier 3D patches (the Utah teapot).

I have tried a simple approach - tesselate each Bezier curve individually, then join the vertices and indices appropriately, taking into account vertex offsets, to create a tessellated merged mesh.

However, this does not quite seem to have the desired result.

If anyone has hints on this problem or, even better, code samples, much appreciated.

Specifically, I have checked: Www.directxtutorial.com http://www.amazon.com/Introduction-Game-Programming-Direct-9-0c/dp/1598220160/

And another Direct3D reference, as well as Google.

Thank you and look forward to your advice/pointers.

Yours Misha

Tim C Schroeder has been a huge help and suggested I use ID3DXPatchMesh. Here is some sample code that generates a tessellated teapot (place in file tester.cpp):
