Well, you're pulling in __Startup__ because you don't have a __Startup__
function. This is because C++ mangles names of functions to do typesafe
linking. You have a line like
#define SampleLibInstall __Startup__
in your Prv header file. This makes your install function the "startup"
function for the library by changing its name at compile time using a
macro. However, since you're using C++, the name in the object file
actually looks like __Startup____FUsP18SysLibTblEntryType, which the
linker doesn't like.
The fix is very easy. Modify where you declare and define your
SampleLibInstall to have
extern "C"
prefixed in front of the declaration. This will cause the compiler to
use an unmangled form, and the link will be successful.
