Thanks! A better link, that accidentally caused me to realise what you meant was http://cubicspot.blogspot.com/2007/06/solving-pesky-lnk2005-errors.html. (Although I still don't know what a code generation runtime library is). :) On Sep 21, 3:32 am, Navigateur <naveen.c...@gmail.com> wrote: > I built everything with the same IDE, on the same day.
