[c++] linker errors - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

Digilogic · 07-15-2004, 07:47 PM

I am getting about 10 errors all of this type:

main.obj : error LNK2005: "struct HINSTANCE__ * myhInst" (?myhInst@@3PAUHINSTANCE__@@A) already defined in CTexture.obj

I haven't been able to figure this out?

Any suggestions?

have you done a rebuild all? often link errors get cleared up that way.

otherwise my guess would be that you have myhInst defined more than once -- you probably need one class def in a header and an instance def in your cpp file.

Maybe you forgot to declare inline on a function in a header file.

also make sure you're using macro guarding properly

If it's actually in two files, then only include the definition in one of them and add the extern keyword to it

For example:
void myFunc(int param);
would become...
extern void myFunc(int param);
