I'm getting a linker error and cannot figure out how to resolve it. I'm wondering if anyone else has seen a linker error about _axutil_error_messages? The scenario is described below.
I am coding in C++ and have two classes: class_A and class_B. Class_A has a private member of type axis2_char_t*. It in turn has an include statement: #include <axis2_util.h>. Class_B has a private member of type "class_A*." It in turn has an include statement: #include <class_A.h>. Class_B has no references to any axis headers or types. I'm trying to create a dll, but when I build (on Windows), I get an error at the linker stage and in turn failure which says: class_B.o : warning LNK4006: _axutil_error_messages already defined in class_A.o; second definition ignored LIB : error LNK1218: warning treated as error; no output file generated *** Error code 4006 I checked the symbol tables for class_A.o and class_B.o and they both contain "_axutil_error_messages". Beyond this, I'm stuck. Why is this symbol showing up in both places? Am I linking correctly? Any help is greatly appreciated.
