No, you didn't. You got a problem *linking* your program. > /tmp/ccfRzJFM.o:(.bss+0x40): multiple definition of `program_name' The problem is as follows: in eht_lib.h, you have: char *program_name; When any file including this header is compiled, it gets a *definition* of "program_name": g++ -c test.cc eth_lib.cc nm -A test.o eth_lib.o | grep ' program_name' test.o:00000000 B program_name eth_lib.o:00000000 B program_name So you have two definitions, but you can have at most *one* such definition. To correct this, change 'char *program_name;' to 'extern char *program_name;' in the eth_lib.h and add 'char *program_name;' to the eth_lib.cc. This way there will be one definition in eth_lib.o, and all other uses will result in a reference to that one-and-only definition.
